Does Jesus Know You?
Rev. Scott Zeckzer
Twenty-fourth Sunday after Pentecost - Sermon Text: Matthew 25:13; Readings: Psalm 70:1-5; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Matthew 25:1-13
Jesus is coming. Are you ready for His coming again? While it is important to know Jesus, it is more important that Jesus knows you.
What Is Past Is Prologue
How much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
Matthew 7:11b
“What is past is prologue” is the inscription on a statue outside of the National Archives building in Washington, D.C. This phrase also describes God’s work in our lives. Here is a metaphorical example: A scented candle fills a room with a wonderful fragrance. After it is extinguished, it can bring back memories and the promise of renewed aroma when it is relit. Fruit of the Month offers similar expectations. The recipient is given the opportunity to enjoy delicious fruit now and the promise of more in the future. Like the scented candle and monthly fruit, God offers both the present blessing and the promise of more to come. We can bask in the memories of all that God has done in our lives. His promises assure us that He wants us to have His joy and peace — and that will never leave nor forsake us.
