Just as Jesus cleansed the temple, He wants to cleanse our lives—the new temple of His Spirit. The tables in our hearts can either be bridges that invite others to meet Jesus or barriers that push them away. Jesus overturns the “tables” of pride, greed, and distraction not in anger, but out of love—to restore purity and make room for His presence. Our “table” represents what others see in us; it should reflect grace, humility, and welcome. When Jesus is at the center, our lives become living invitations for others to encounter God’s mercy.
