Good News: It’s in There Somewhere
You guys, Luke 12 has some words. Jesus warns and comforts, warns and comforts, warns and comforts. Today we talk about both and we have some good news for you:
The comfort wins.
Where is the comfort when we are lonely and forgotten? When we are in need? When we are divided?
It is where it always was: in Jesus. And you and I have Jesus in abundance.
So then we ask, where does our neighbor find comfort?
The answer is the same, but the vehicle for their comfort might look a lot like you.
ALSO:
- God sees it–He sees your service.
- Trusting God gives us freedom to let go and help others.
- What can we do to show people that they matter? How can we connect?
- Is it even a parade if it doesn’t have candy?
LIGHT: It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom! There is nothing to fear.
ACTION: Reach out to someone who might be lonely. If it is you, still reach out!
