What trace will you leave behind when you are gone, and will it last longer than a footprint in the sand? That question leads us to the first of the seven letters in Revelation, the message of Jesus to the church in Ephesus (Revelation 2), a community that was persevering, courageous, faithful to the truth and morally upright, and yet heard the words: you have abandoned your first love. The sermon shows that all our achievements can turn out to be like a banknote with no marks of authenticity. Listen, and ask whether you are leaving the imprint of your heart on everything you do.
