Isaiah 55:  Seek the LORD while he may be found, call him while he is near.
Philippians 1:  Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.  For to me life is Christ, and death is gain.
Matthew 20:  ‘My friend, I am not cheating you. Did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? Take what is yours and go.  What if I wish to give this last one the same as you?  Or am I not free to do as I wish with my own money?  Are you envious because I am generous?’  Thus, the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

I am sorry you did not get a Blog last Sunday but there was a software problem.

 

Once upon a time, within the last 75 years, life was considered a question to be answered, a series of steps to be defined. Now we know that life is at best an invitation to begin and begin and begin—all over again. It’s when we cease to begin that we cease to be fully alive.

Isaiah 60:  Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem!  Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you.
 Ephesians 3:  It was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit:  that the Gentiles are coheirs, members of the same body, and copartners in the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
Matthew 2:  And behold, the star that they had seen at its rising preceded them, 
until it came and stopped over the place where the child was.  They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother.
