8th Oct 2017 – Sunday 27A

TENANT RESPONSIBILITY
(Matthew 21:33 -46)
The kingdom of God
is like a vineyard which grows
abundant good fruit.

We are all tenants,
who live, move, have our being,*
in this vineyard world,

required to produce
good fruit and not rely on
a sense of cheap grace.
      Jeff Shrowder, 2017
 
* Thanks to Rev’d Wes. Hartley in Western Australia for this connection. And I recognise that he may have, in turn, relied somewhat on Charles Wesley.
