Sermon: Life Changes in a Moment

Things in life can change in a moment. And often do. They did, for you, when you were baptized. At that moment, the One who is always in control made you His son, His daughter, and said: Father, forgive him; forgive her. And: you will be with me in Paradise. At that moment, Jesus took you into His death and resurrection, to give you new life and hope. At that moment, Jesus took everything He has and everything He did and gave it to you. 

And He made you a promise. He said: That’s never going to change. I won’t take it back. You can refuse my gift. Leave me at the altar as a jilted Bridegroom in favor of your life of sin. But I will not ever take back my promises, my vows, to you. When you need mercy, I will be here for you. When you need forgiveness, I will be here for you. 

When you need life, I will be here for you. I gave my life for you, and I am still am giving my life to you. Here. Take it. Eat it and drink it. My Body and Blood. It’s here for you. I am here for you. Always. And that’s never going to change.
