Luke 5:33-39:
The Pharisees challenge Jesus and his disciples’ new ways. Jesus tells them a parable comparing his ministry to a wedding. Fasting is not appropriate at such a celebratory event. Jesus is telling the Pharisees that his presence is a reason to celebrate. They must not cling to the old ways for their own sake but rather welcome the new.
How often do we hear, even say, “We’ve always done it that way”? Thank you, for calling us to celebrate the new with you.
