And again Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a marriage feast for his son, and sent his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast; but they would not come. Again he sent other servants, saying, “Tell those who are invited, Behold, I have made ready my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves are killed, and everything is ready; come to the marriage feast.” But they made light of it and went off, one to his farm, another to his business, while the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them. The king was angry, and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.” Matthew 22:1 – 7
Lord once again You were talking to the chief priests and elders that were listening to You. They were already upset over the last parable because they knew You were talking about them. Now this parable is talking about them again. This could only make them more and more angry.
Thank You Lord for Your persistence and Your love.
Thank You for never giving up on us.
You know just the nudges we need to bring us closer to You.
Thank You. Thank You Lord.
