John 13:1-7, 31b-35 | As we begin the Great Three Days – telling the story of God’s love for all creation – we find ourselves sitting at a table with Jesus. But even here, before we arrive at the cross, Jesus does not wait to show his disciples – and us – the full extent of his love. So as we prepare to witness Christ’s death and resurrection, receive Christ’s invitation to come to His table. Take off your shoes and stay a while. Allow yourself to be loved – fully – and allow yourself to be filled to the brim so you can fill those around you.
