Everyone likes to pass a test. For some of us, just the word test gets us anxious. Does anyone still have nightmares about walking a class to find out you have a test you didn’t know about? I have had those, but my more current “test” nightmare is finding out I am preaching, but I wasn’t aware of it. The truth is every one of us has failed the test. For all have fallen short. This failure has been since our original parents. God is fully aware of our inability to free ourselves; from the beginning, he has had a plan of redemption. Last week we talked about Jesus being worth the wait through the lives of Simeon and Anna. This week we skip ahead to the beginning of Jesus’ ministry. As we get closer to celebrating the resurrection of Jesus, we need to know that it is worth celebrating. Jesus was and will always be worth celebrating.
