Choices.
Life is full of them.
This past Saturday, you had the choice to buy into the hype that the world was ending, even though the Bible has clearly told us that “no one, not even the Son, knows the hour… Only the Father knows” (Matthew 24:36/Mark 13:32) or to go about your life with whatever you had planned.
Every day we make choices that affect how we move forward in our lives. Those choices also affect our relationship with God and with others.
We are created with the gift of free-will. We are free to make choices that separate us from God or bring us closer in relationship to Him. God has a plan for us, but gives us the choice to accept that plan or try our own way.
Even when our choices are less than ideal, we are still given more choices to move back into a right relationship with God.
June is frequently the season of Confirmations/Affirmation of Baptism celebrations. Four young people will stand before our congregation in June to affirm the choice made for them at their baptism... they will CHOOSE to be a child of God.
God continually gives us options that can lead us back to Him.
The door to God is never closed.
Because of Jesus.
Come and worship with us. Sundays at 9:30 am.
