Hi! My name is Glen.

Luke 11:9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will

be given to you; seek and you will find;

knock and the door will be opened to you.

10 For everyone who asks receives; the

one who seeks finds; and to the one who

knocks, the door will be opened.

Luke 11:11 “Which of you fathers, if your

son asks for a fish, will give him a snake

instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will

give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, though

you are evil, know how to give good gifts

to your children, how much more will your

Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to

those who ask him!”

Matt 20:1 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a

landowner who went out early in the morning to

hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay

them a denarius for the day and sent them into his

vineyard.

3 “About nine in the morning he went out and saw

others standing in the marketplace doing nothing.

4 He told them, ‘You also go and work in my

vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So

they went.

Matt 20:5 “He went out again about noon and about

three in the afternoon and did the same thing.

6 About five in the afternoon he went out and

found still others standing around. He asked them,

‘Why have you been standing here all day long

doing nothing?’

7 “ ‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered.

“He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my

vineyard.’

Matt 20:8 “When evening came, the owner of

the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the

workers and pay them their wages, beginning

with the last ones hired and going on to the

first.’

9 “The workers who were hired about five in

the afternoon came and each received a

denarius.

Matt 20:10 So when those came who were

hired first, they expected to receive more. But

each one of them also received a denarius.

11 When they received it, they began to

grumble against the landowner. 12 ‘These who

were hired last worked only one hour,’ they

said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who

have borne the burden of the work and the

heat of the day.’

Matt 20:13 “But he answered one of them, ‘I

am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you

agree to work for a denarius? 14 Take your pay

and go. I want to give the one who was hired

last the same as I gave you. 15 Don’t I have the

right to do what I want with my own money? Or

are you envious because I am generous?’

16 “So the last will be first, and the first will

be last.”

Big Idea #2

1 Cor 13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men or of

angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding

gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of

prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all

knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move

mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I

give all I possess to the poor and give over my body

to hardship that I may boast, u but do not have

love, I gain nothing.

1 Cor 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does

not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It

does not dishonor others, it is not self-

seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no

record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in

evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always

protects, always trusts, always hopes, always

perseveres.

1 Cor 13:8 Love never fails. But where there are

prophecies, they will cease; where there are

tongues, they will be stilled; where there is

knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part

and we prophesy in part, 10 but when

completeness comes, what is in part disappears.

11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought

like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a

man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.

1 Cor 13:12 For now we see only a reflection as

in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now

I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I

am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope

and love. But the greatest of these is love.

14:1 Follow the way of love and eagerly desire

gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy.
