COME TO THE FEAST
“On this mountain, the Lord of hosts /
will provide for all peoples / a feast of
rich food and choice wines”(Isaiah 25:6).
That’s what Isaiah tells us today. God is
putting together a huge party for “all
peoples,” to “wipe away / the tears from
every face” (Isaiah 25:8). And what does
Jesus tell us? The reign of God, he says,
“may be likened to a king who gave a
wedding feast for his son” (Matthew
22:2). When the guests didn’t come, the
king had his servants go out “into the
main roads and invite to the feast
whomever you find”
(Matthew 22:9). We are called to deliver
that invitation. One of the themes woven
into today’s liturgy is that they have
“earned” what they have. In our better
moments, though, we know that all our
gifts—even the spiritual gifts—come
through God’s generosity. Our vocation
is to invite people, to remind them the
tickets aren’t for sale. We can only show
up and say thank you
