“So the last will be first, and the first will be last.” - Matthew 20:16

In Matthew 27:19 Peter asks Jesus “we’ve given up everything to follow you, what will we get?” Jesus answers him and reassures them that they will be next to him in heaven but then adds there will be surprises.  Many of the greatest now will be the least then.  Jesus explains further by telling them a parable of the vineyard workers.  The workers who only worked one hour will get the same pay as those who have worked the entire day.  God may not rewards as we expect.  His ways, roles and standards are not the same as the worlds.  Grace trumps the idea of “deserve”

This is God’s upside down kingdom. Who we see in this life as an important figure in the faith might not be who God sees.  His view of the heart is much more valuable and real than our view of outward appearance.  He has no timeline in which one should serve.

Humble, service, love, and mercy will be far more rewarded in heaven than speeches, followers and status.  Be reminded as you wear this tee to be a servant of the Lord.  Hold to His word and obey his commands.  Love as he loved living out the gospel.  When we live as last our first shall be sweet for eternity.
