God Gets in My Way
There are times when we allow
our things get in God’s way. The list
includes our own plans and desires, sins, pride, things that we don’t want to
let go, our lack of trust, etc.
However, can there be times
when God gets in our way?
That might be one way of
looking at the reaction of the first group of guests in this parable.
Jesus identifies them as “the invited guests”
who are now “summoned” to the feast when “everything is ready.”
The description “invited guests”
suggests that they have received an earlier invitation prior to this moment. They knew about it.
But they already have their
plans.
And now, God’s plan for them gets
in their way. We know how they
react.
Have I ever allowed such a
situation to happen in my life?
