While that moment happened a long time ago, His words remind us that in big and little acts of kindness and hospitality there are still ways of welcoming, and being welcomed, as a friend of the friends of God. For anyone who would open their house, or even give a cup of cold water to one of His disciples, Jesus assured a place in the heart of God. ItвЂ™s hard to imagine a more life-changing offer of friendship. He assured the disciples: вЂњAnyone who welcomes you, welcomes meвЂќ (Matthew 10:40), and, in turn, welcomes His Father who sent Him as well. He gave His disciples the ability to heal others and sent them out to announce that the kingdom of God was at hand. In the middle of a growing conflict, He made a move to multiply the joy, cost, and wonder of His presence. But HeвЂ™d also been making enemies of local religious leaders by disagreeing with the way they were commercializing the temple and misusing their influence.
