A Guest In The House 1-30-24

 Good Morning,

The day started with a smile and a hot cup of Door County Country Morning Blend Coffee. 

Luke 6:31 Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.



We were blessed to have visitors come to our home last night. Our nephew and his wife are hosting a music exchange student. The student needed to catch a plane very early this morning. We live 15 minutes from the airport. They called last week and asked if we could put them up for the night so they could take her to the airport from our house. 

We always consider showing hospitality to others as a good thing and it allows us to put our home to good use. I believe we are the ones who receive a blessing by having visitors and some fresh conversations in our home.

Through the years while participating in short term mission trips or hunting. others have opened their homes to me. I was fed and given a warm, dry place to sleep. 

We welcomed our family and their student into our home and did our best to make sure their needs were met. Their student is from Europe and is a long way from home. And I imagine someone back there worries about her care. But wherever I traveled to I was welcomed, my needs were met and now it was our turn to play the role of host.

Whenever possible, don't hesitate to open your door and show hospitality to travelers. We learned a few things about a different culture and hopefully reduced the worries of her family.

Have a great day. 

Marty
