(Jesus continued) “Hear another parable. There was a householder who planted a vineyard, and set a hedge around it, and dug a wine press in it, and built a tower, and let it out to tenants, and went into another country. When the season of fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants, to get his fruit; and the tenants took his servants, and beat one, killed another and stoned another. Again he sent other servants, more than the first; and they did the same to them. Afterward he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves. This is the heir; come, let us kill him and have his inheritance.’ And they took him and cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him.” Matthew 21:33 – 38
Lord, I must stop here and reflect because this is Your story. This is what happened in Your life. Others came before you and they were rejected. Here You were talking with the chief priests and elders and they too were rejecting You.
Lord I am so grateful for Your love for us. Thank You for coming to die for us. Thank You for the gift of eternal life. Oh how we thank You!
Thank You Lord.
