What more could the master have done for his vineyard? Today, Jesus begins a parable about a vineyard planted with care, expecting fruit.
Matthew 21:33
The moment
A master plants a vineyard, digs a wine press, builds a tower, and leases it to farmers. When harvest time comes, he sends servants to collect his fruit.
Matthew 21:33-34
Where it points
This echoes God's promise to Abraham: in you all families of the earth will be blessed. Paul says this gospel was preached beforehand, and the seed is Christ.
Genesis 12:3 · Galatians 3:8 · Galatians 3:16
For today
Today, recognize the care God has invested in you. Ask yourself: am I bearing the fruit of blessing for others?
