"Beloved of the heart: You have called us to listen. Draw us into the silence of prayer. Feed us with your living stillness. Calm us with your vast love. We request this very personal experience today. We gain strength through the community of stillness drawn together in prayer. Speak now to each of us by the mystery of your Spirit and Word and sacrament, reminding us as we go about our Saturday attentiveness that you are the Beloved of our hearts. Through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen."

SIRENS !

Sirens as watchmen I have sent you , So now America what will you do ?! Prophets , Apostles yet to you ordinary men , Spiritual Sampsons you refuse to call friend , So why should I come now to set you free ?!? , For if you refuse my servants you deny Me ! Your wastefullness of time has come to bear , And now on My threshing floor you are found naked and bare , So tell me what shall be your demise ? Oneness and Unity or your haughty eyes ?! For your heart is what I see . . ., Shall you magnify or deny Me ?! For truly your future has come to bear , And I am causing you to meet Me there . Sirens !

Matthew 21:33-44

The Parable of the Tenants 33”Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and went away on a journey. 34When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his fruit. 35”The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third. 36Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way. 37Last of all, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
38”But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and take his inheritance.’ 39So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
40”Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?”
41”He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and he will rent the vineyard to other tenants, who will give him his share of the crop at harvest time.”
42Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: “ ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone ; the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?
43”Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit. 44He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
