Loved this devotional from the August 17th entry of Celtic Daily Prayer:
Matthew had met Jesus and wanted all his friends to meet the Master too. What could he do? He could do the one thing he really knew how to do well — he could throw a party. People always enjoyed his parties. So he threw a big party and invited everybody — Jesus could do the rest.
Why can we not just do the same — lay aside time-consuming religious activities, and spend time with people we like, instead?
