Isaiah 66:10-14 Galatians 6:1-16 Luke 10:1-11, 16-20
Grace and peace to you from our Lord and Savior, Jesus who is the Christ. Amen
As I was preparing to write today’s sermon, I came across an article on my Facebook page entitled 20 Actors who Missed Out on Epic Film Roles. It was a fascinating reading how:
- 1.Hugh Jackman turned down the role of James Bond in Casino Royale because the script felt unbelievable.
- Robert De Niro was too expensive for the lead role in Big.
- Mel Gibson felt he was too old to play Maximus in Gladiator.
- Al Pacino passed on being Han Solo in Star Wars for being too weird.
- Johnny Depp passed on playing Ferris Bueller due to schedule conflicts.
We all have opportunities that we’ve missed in our lives. Opportunities in school, at work, in love. Just like these actors, we don’t always make the most of every opportunity. Well, this morning we are going to see that God gives us opportunities to serve our fellow man and God wants us to make the most of every opportunity through today’s message in Paul’s letter to the Galatians.
