Your message for my children.
I have a question for you guys. Do you know what season of the church year we started today? We set the word a couple of times. I think you know, what season is starting today?
You're right on that. You said Christmas. You're right. We're starting at the right now actually at then is the season in which so during a van. I remember when I was a kid, which wasn't as long ago as you think.
And really it is a time of looking. We're looking forward to the coming of Christ and we're waiting for that. We were preparing for that coming of Christ in the Old Testament long long time ago. People were waiting for Price also years for Jesus to come now. God promised you promised them. Waited and waited and waited and finally did come and that's what we celebrate on Christmas, right? Well, they came and he died for our sins and he rose again and he ascended into heaven before he is spending the night and you promised that you would come back and take us with him to live with him forever, which is awesome. Right so it wasn't forever in heaven. And so during the season during Advent and then look forward to Christ first coming when he was born. We remember that God kept his promise. We remember that God kept his promise to send price to us as a baby in the end to be our savior. And so we can have faith that he will keep his promise to us to come again. That's a really awesome things know that God keeps his promises and if people keep that final promise to come back.
Dear, heavenly father. Thank you for the season of Lent. Thank you for sending your son to come to Earth and died for us. Grossing. I pray that you would bless of a season as you prepare. Also as we look forward to your second coming.

And yes, I ran out again this weekend.
We had some time in preparation for all working to prepare.
If you look at our gospel lessons today, I see that preparing going on. I see more than just preparing in Our Deck Down in the freezer.
the first part
the triumphal entry of Jesus happened they prepare before they go to the town, but then even more exactly happened in preparation. What is the disciples? They have a mistress and just two of them, but they're sent.
exactly Hey, you're going to go find this called exactly can hear what you're going to say when they ask you a question. And what happens to go into town. They find it exactly the way. even when the person respond
preparation they are preparing for the triumphant.
So I can park celebration. Whenever Jesus is going down into Jerusalem, there is such to Joyce think there is such a joy. There is such celebration. Jesus has come. What a great. A couple points on this as well first off they misunderstood.
your words are right, but they misunderstood that they were hoping that Jesus was a kid could take over the place in Jerusalem in the throat of the world. It says they say yeah, the king is coming.
And his throne was not in. Sitting at the right hand of God the Father. is coming they were waiting for the Messiah but the one who was to give away two piece. The one that was supposed to again and their eyes take over the
the one who went to the Cross who has looked it up and guide them cuz they're safe.
celebrating all the same and what a celebration
At first I didn't know what to even make of the third phone. Because if it's in there, some people call it a review some people.
Jesus tell his disciples. Go they have two reasons for doing what was going on.
That's why the most obvious one. The other one's a little love obviously.
Well, the people were talking about Kings and Remember, they're still in Rome in Rome. Does it usually take kindly to people saying that they're the new king? The Pharisees they already had Roman occupation. Rome was already in control the room kind of just ignored Naruto.
They didn't want the state of these people out here to cause more attention to fall over isn't it was more the fact that they like their own ability to be they didn't want somebody coming in and taking control over the temple and over. Whatever they felt a hat. So you have this Exchange? Pharisees
look up the three parts. I see if you break down.
And you know, we're kind of in the middle right now in the preparation. We're preparing we're getting ready. We're getting all these things set up and prepare than you know. We also have a mission now. It's not cold.
It's also for today has told us to go out and make disciples of all Nations. We are still called to this day to go out. For the word of God to Proclaim Jesus to the world that still our mission that still what we are to do and we can't just be sent we actually have to go. Maybe car neighbors maybe for friends at work, maybe elsewhere. Your so-called go out. Play, Wisconsin.
