Pastor's Thought (30 Aug 22)

​

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever” Hebrews 13:8

          In a world where nothing is sure, I find so much comfort in these words. One must look hard for good news. There are wars and rumors of wars.  We have experienced sickness so great and lost so many loved ones and friends since 2020.

          Knowing that Jesus never will leave us or forsake us is good news. The only thing that is constant in life is change. We age, we get sick, we experience grief, and so much more if we live in this world.

          Jesus suffered, died, and rose again so that we might have eternal life.  When we look at His life on earth in the gospels, we see we are called to a life of service to God and to others. He lived a life of service and loved unconditionally all he met.  He saw people’s potential and spoke to them in such a way, they rose to that potential. He believed in the tax collector, the adulteress, and all who were considered the lowest in society. His parables were about the things common people understood.     

           This is what we are called to do as well. We need to keep our eyes on Jesu and remember he is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
