King Hezekiah had something to celebrate! It was so big and so important that he wanted everybody in the country to celebrate with him. He sent messengers throughout the country and into Samaria to invite them to come to celebrate the Passover. It had been a long time, but Hezekiah wanted God’s people to come back to worship God.

Sadly, most of people he invited laughed at the messengers and ridiculed them. But a few listened and came to God’s house in Jerusalem.

Things haven’t changed much, have they? We have something big and important to celebrate, too. We worship God, who created the universe and who stepped into our world to sacrifice his life to rescue us. That’s big! We invite people to celebrate with us. And, still, most people laugh and disregard the invitation.

But, some listen and return to God’s house. So, we keep inviting and we keep celebrating and we keep coming to God’s house.

We don’t come because we are worthy. We come because God invites us by grace. That hasn’t changed either. King Hezekiah, the priests, the Levites, the people from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun all came by grace, just like us. We’ve all broken God’s laws, but God heals us.

So, we worship the Lord our God with all hearts, with all our souls and with all our strength.

 

God bless,

Pastor Tesch
