What would it be if you could put a price on your life? Would it be $10 million? Would it be 20 Bitcoin? Would it be the gross national income of the federated states of Micronesia? What would it be? What are you worth?
Today, on Palm Sunday, the price for your life is revealed. In the mass for Palm Sunday, we hear the whole passion of Jesus Christ. We hear the entirely true story of the Lord’s love for us. And what is revealed to us, you are worth the very death of God. Your price is God’s death. There’s no amount of Bitcoin, dollars, success, fame, or pleasure that would come close to the value that has already been put on your heart, which is God dying for you. Enter into Jesus’ passion on this Palm Sunday, and realize your worth. This is Spirit juice, peace.

The gods, especially Zeus, are so upset that they condemn Prometheus to eternal punishment because they are jealous and want to withhold the fire. This is the crazy thing. Today, on Pentecost, it’s the opposite, that our Father in Heaven gives us his fire…

The Imprint on Your Hearts
Let’s talk about money. In ancient Rome, Caesar’s face was imprinted on coins so that people would know who the emperor was. In this Sunday’s gospel, Jesus asks the Pharisees to take out a coin and tells them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and give to God what is God’s.” Jesus is telling the Pharisees to give him his coins, be good citizens, pay their taxes, and not jaywalk.

Forced Love Is Not Love
So wouldn’t it be easier if Juliet forced Romeo to love him? Then, none of that heartbreak would’ve happened. So what if Jim from “The Office” forced Pam to love him in the first season?
