I know I haven’t perfectly kept God’s commands, but thru
His grace and power in me I am able to do all things!
Matthew 21:28-32
(MSG)
28 Tell me what you think of this
story: A man had two sons. He went up to the first and said, ‘Son, go out for
the day and work in the vineyard.’
29 The son answered, ‘I don't
want to.’ Later on he thought better of it and went.
30 The father gave the same
command to the second son. He answered, ‘Sure, glad to.’ But he never went.
31-32 Which of the two sons did
what the father asked?
They said, “The first.”
Jesus said, “Yes, and I tell you
that crooks and whores are going to precede you into God's kingdom.
John came to you showing you the
right road. You turned up your noses at him, but the crooks and whores believed
him. Even when you saw their changed lives, you didn't care enough to change
and believe him.”
