Make room for the invitation

An invitation can be welcome and still ask something of us. We may want a place in God’s company while keeping every part of our routine untouched. Begin with one small space: arrive a little earlier for Mass, listen carefully to a family member, or let prayer interrupt a hurried evening. The wedding garment is not a rule about expensive church clothes. The image asks us to respond to grace with a changed life.
