Sermon for Sexagesima, AD 2026

Many of us have things in life we would like to do that we put off until it is easier. For some this can be the Christian life and its duties. We look at the parable of the soils and think that those who produce the fruit of faith must have an easy life with attacks of the devil, affliction, or temptations of the world. This is completely untrue, as Christ faced all these things, so must Christians. When we are humbled and brought to our lowest place, there God answers us, "my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
