Travel lightly
Luke’s gospel tells the story of Jesus sending out disciples ahead of him. The disciples are to take nothing with them—except peace. Their job: to prepare the way for Jesus. When most people go on a long trip, however, they usually pack a suitcase full of stuff. Luke’s story reminds us of the importance of our “spiritual suitcase.” That’s the piece of luggage that goes with us wherever you go. The contents—peace, respect, care for others—not only prepare us for what’s ahead in life. They also manifest the values of Jesus in a world greatly in need of them. What do you carry in your spiritual suitcase?

TODAY’S READINGS: 2 Timothy 4:10-17b; Luke 10:1-9 (661)
“Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this household.’ ”
