We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Opening our home to others is a wonderful gift and a neglected discipline in the church. But we easily forget the whole point of hospitality. Think of it this way: Good hospital-ity is making your home a hospital. The idea is that friends and family and the wounded and weary people come to your home and leave helped and refreshed. And yet, too often hospitality is a nerve-wracking experience for hosts and guests alike. Instead of setting our guests at ease, we set them on edge by telling them how bad the food will be, and what a mess the house is, and how sorry we are for the kids’ behavior. We get worked up and crazy busy in all the wrong ways because we are more concerned about looking good than with doing good. So instead of our encouraging those we host, they feel compelled to encourage us with constant reassurances that everything is just fine. Opening our homes takes time, but it doesn’t have to take over our lives. Christian hospitality has much more to do with good relationships than with good food. There is a fine line between care and cumber. In many instances, less ado would serve better.

2 ts Worcestershire sauce
Clove garlic, minced
1/2 c Chopped onion
1/4 c Water

INSTRUCTIONS

Place fish in single layer in shallow baking dish. Combine 1/2 cup catsup,
lemon juice, oil, Worcestershire and garlic. Pour sauce over fish. Cover

Combine remaining half of sauce with remaining catsup, onion, water, sugar,

barbecuing fish on standard grill, brush fish with oil before cooking.)

cooking. To serve, spoon hot barbecue sauce over fish.
