The Collect:
Almighty God, you have made us for yourself, and our hearts are restless till they find their rest in you: pour your love into our hearts and draw us to yourself, and so bring us at last to your heavenly city where we shall see you face to face; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
Reading Ezekiel 18:1-4. 25-end
The prophet tells the people that God’s ways are righteous. They must take responsibility for their sins as individuals in the present time, rather than blaming previous generations.
Psalm: 71(v1-4; 12-16)

Gospel: Matthew 21:23-32
