We are invited into the abundant reality of divine union, yet too often we let distractions pull us away. Jesus speaks of a banquet, already prepared, waiting for our participation. This is not about moral perfection or earning our place; it is about acceptance, presence, and gratitude. Like those in the parables, we may be caught up in tasks, status, or obligations, missing the profound joy being offered now. Once we know it is primarily a mystical matter, a realization of union, it reframes the entire journey. The call is simple: come as you are, without expectation of reciprocity or fear of unworthiness. When we embrace this invitation, we begin to live from abundance. Our lives become expressions of generosity and connection, reflecting the boundless grace we have received. This is the transformation Jesus envisioned.
May we awaken to the mystical union offered to us,
living from its abundance with open hearts and generous spirits.
(inspired by Richard Rohr, Things Hidden)
