Scripture: Matthew 24:36-44
I’m curious – how many of you here like it when someone just drops by your house unannounced?
OK – there are a few. But most - maybe not so much? Why don’t we like guests stopping by announced? We find it rude… house isn’t clean – that’s my big one. I confess, I don’t always keep the best house when I’m not expecting company.
They catch me unaware and unprepared. I feel this need to suddenly rush and pick up the clothes off the bathroom floor – toss those dishes that have been soaking in the sink into the dishwasher... things like that.
It’s uncomfortable when we have unexpected guests – so we try to make sure to let all our friends and acquaintances know – if you’re going to stop by – please call first. Let us know you’re on your way.
