Do you know what today is? Yeah, I know it's Thursday. But you know what day this is that makes this one of the most important days on the calendar, one of the most important days in all of human history, the history of the whole cosmos, why my father would have called this a red letter day. This day has huge implications for you and me today and for all eternity, this is ascension day.

Where do you live? Where you live? Where you call home is something that I want to think about with you for the next few moments. And when I ask you, ‘where do you live?’ I'm not asking you what part of the country you live in or whether you live in an apartment, a house, a mobile home, a condominium, a tent. No, I have something much more foundational, much more essential when I ask you, where do you live?

I have encouraging words for you today. Encouraging words for you who love the Lord Jesus and are seeking to serve him. Encouraging words for you who teach a children's Sunday school class, who serve in the homeless shelter, who lead a home Bible study, who care for a home bound loved one, you who serve on the church board. And the encouraging words, I take straight from scripture...

Good ole Yogi Beira said that if you don't know where you're going, you might not get there. Well, I wonder today where you're going. Where you're going in life.

I wonder if I've seen your name in the headlines? You haven't seen mine. But I say this because I have read enough headlines and I have read enough Bible to know that most names that make headlines, whether or not all that important... And names that are important, whether you say, don't make headlines. There were names, the world knows and names God knows. I'm gonna look at this today in the Book of Exodus, in the Hebrew Bible, the name for this book that we call Exodus in a Hebrew Bible, it is called names.

Do you have an I don't understand file? What I mean is do you have that place in your mind where you file things you do not understand? Things like, “Why doesn't God do something about this pandemic?” “Why did I get laid off from work or why did my son die from cancer?“ Actually, I have a growing I don't understand file. Things that I've learned to, well, to leave with God as I've come to realize that God is working on a much higher level than I am and there are questions that I would actually need the mind of God to understand the answer.

She loves me, she loves me not. Did you ever play that game? They say it's actually quite an old game where you take a flower and you begin to pick off the pedals one by one, and with each pedal you pick off, you say, he loves me, he loves me not. Or, she loves me, she loves me not. And you keep on picking off the pedals until you come to that last pedal and that's supposed to tell you... He loves me or he loves me not. Do you ever play that game with God?

It's been said that there was a little difference in people, but that little difference can make a very big difference. I'm going to talk for a few moments about a man who was a little different than those around him, but that little difference made a big difference for him for his people, and it can for you and me too.

This morning as I was making coffee, I thought of the instant coffee theory of life that's put forward by Rabbi Harold Kushner. And with the instant coffee theory of life, you open a new jar of instant coffee and you dole out generous heaping spoon fulls because, well, you have a whole jar of it, but then by the time you start getting towards the bottom of the jar, you realize that that you don't have that much coffee left, and so you carefully go after every grain of coffee in the jar...

Theologian Ray Anderson suggests that on the day after the father throws that big homecoming party for his prodigal son, that on the day after the prodigal son returns to the far country, but that he returns in order to tell everyone how he had lied about his father; to tell everyone in truth how extravagantly loving his father is.
