Chances are, you love to receive great hospitality. Whether it’s from a favorite restaurant, a nice hotel, or a close friend’s house. There’s something about being welcomed in that we all long for. But the truth about hospitality is that it’s costly. 

Hospitality costs you time, convenience, and space. So why does Hebrews 13:2 say, “Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers”? Hospitality is worth it! Why? Because it’s a reflection of what God has done with you. Jesus understood what it would cost Him to welcome you into His family, and you were with it. 

Maybe this is why deep down we long for hospitality and why it’s so impactful when we show it to others, too. Don’t wait for the perfect meal, the perfect house, or the perfect plan. After all, Jesus didn’t wait for us to clean up before inviting us over!
