The Lord prepares us for every invitation he offers to us, just like the Passover and the Last supper. During the Passover account, God gave instructions to the Israelites on what kind of animal to choose, how to prepare it, how to eat it, what to wear, and what they should do so that their household would be saved from the plague. During the Last Supper, Jesus himself was the one who washed the disciples’ feet and explained why he did so. From the two accounts, we can see that the Lord does not take us by surprise. He tells us and shows us how things are to be done. All we have to do is pay close attention to him.
Let us ask the Lord God to grant us the grace to be attentive to His prodding, to be generous and not to hold back anything when we give our “yes” to Him, and to be humble as we serve our brothers and sisters. Let us ask Him to continue to be patient with us since we always get distracted and tempted to do our own will.
