Killing the Son
"But the farmers said to each other, 'This is the owner's
son. This vineyard will be his. If we kill him, then it will
be ours.' So the farmers took the son, threw him out of the
vineyard, and killed him."
-- Mark 12:7-8 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
"We want it for ourselves!" That's in essence what the farmers in the
vineyard were saying. It's also what so many others -- including most
of us at one time or another -- have said. We don't want to have to
live by God's standards, God's plans, and God's values. We want the
blessings of God for ourselves while doing things the way we want to do
them. But, God sent his Son and our place in God's family depends upon
what we do with the Son.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Father, thank you for sending your Son. It gives me great pain to see
how he was treated. I pray the way that I live shows that he is welcome
in my life as the Lord of my heart. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
