On this Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time, our readings invite us to embrace profound humility and selfless hospitality. Sirach teaches that the greater we are, the more we must humble ourselves to find favor with the Lord. In the Gospel, Jesus challenges us to choose the lowest place at the table and to invite those who cannot repay us to join us at the wedding feast. This wisdom, echoed in the Psalm’s praise for God’s care for the needy, calls us to live not for earthly honor but for heavenly reward. Let us strive to humble ourselves and extend Christ-like love to all.
