The song of the vineyard Psalm 80:7-15
Look down from heaven, O God; behold and tend this vine. (Ps. 80:14, 15) Philippians 3:4b-14
Nothing surpasses the value of knowing Christ Matthew 21:33-46
The parable of the vineyard owner’s son Jesus, Cornerstone of Our FaithGod has showered humanity with gifts and blessings, but humanity continues to abuse those gifts. We have been entrusted with a creation to care for, and in our shortsightedness we abuse and pollute the earth, even bringing about the extinction of entire species. We have been given the ability to create so many wonderful things, and even this gift we abuse as we gather and keep as much as we can for ourselves. This is nothing new. Even in the days of Isaiah it was clear the people turned away from God’s gifts. God expected righteousness and justice. Instead the people responded with bloodshed and suffering, turning away from God. Even if you can think of all the ways you have not turned from God and all the ways you have been faithful, it does no good. As Paul reminds us in the reading from Philippians, “Yet whatever gains I had, these I have come to regard as loss because of Christ” (Phil. 3:7). Even all of Paul’s good and faithful acts add up to nothing. For Paul, and for us, all that matters is Jesus. As Christ himself reminds us, he is our rock, our cornerstone. Jesus is the foundation for our faith and the foundation for our lives. Even as we turn from Jesus, even as we reject Jesus, he returns to us with love and forgiveness. This is the grace of God, the love of God coming into our world and into our lives. To our joy we discover the open arms of Jesus on the cross, bringing life into this world even where there is death; bringing hope where there is despair; and bringing resurrection to all creation. The gospel has a way of making us look at ourselves and our actions and work out whether we are following Jesus (or someone/something else). This weekend as we worship (and what a gift it is to worship together!) we will look at these readings, offer our prayers and give our thanks to God, even as we are reminded through confession and the Lord’s Supper, that we are treasured and loved by God. I can’t wait to worship with you this weekend! In peace and hope, Pastor Paul ✝️
