For the 1st week of Advent, 2022
Scriptures: Psalm 122; Matthew 24:36-44
Key Verse: “I was glad when they said to me, ‘Let us go to the house of the Lord.”
Questions to ponder:
1. What is it like to wait for an invitation to a gathering that you want to go to?
2. Why was the psalmist 122 writer glad to be invited to the house of the Lord?
3. What makes an invitation joyful and welcoming? And what does accepting the invitation say about the invitee who dismisses other possible activities?
Those questions sound familiar to my ears.
