1. Jesus will return in glory to bring the fulfillment of God’s grace to all. Until that time, however, we are given one day in the life of Jesus and comforted by the multi-faceted nature of God’s grace.
  2. Jesus is not asking us to figure out when He will return. Jesus is asking us to live everyday in the certainty that He will return.
  3. Life will not be easy. Conflicts will occur. But God remains in power, and He rules over all.
  4. If you have ever felt like you are standing on the outside looking in, like you do not belong in a beautiful church with its beautiful people, then listen to Jesus, because Jesus has a word for you.
  5. While today we read all of the names of those who have departed this year, we do not lump them all together. Instead, we are asked to see them as God sees them, as individuals.
