The Waiting Room | March 4th

"It will be said on that day, " Behold, this is our God; we waited for him, that he might save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation."

Isaiah 25:9

Beloved, perhaps you are waiting for an answer to prayer. You could be hoping for a burden to be lifted or a breakthrough in a dark period. The waiting could seem endless, but do not be dismayed; the Lord you are waiting for will come.

Many times we feel as though we are waiting on God while wondering why He delays. The work He is doing is often within us. The Lord is molding us and working grace in our lives. We must hold to His promise that all things will work for the good of our salvation.

Our daily waiting will culminate with Christ's return, when He will make all things new, and we will enter into our eternal hope. There are days of rejoicing here when God's salvation comes to us, but there is coming a day when we will never wait again.

In Christ Alone,

"Those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you,"

Psalm 9:10

Beloved, my hope and prayer is that you have at least one friend who has stood the test of time—an individual you have known for a considerable length of time who has been proven faithful throughout your relationship.

Neither person is perfect but faithful and loyal. Always available the best they can and who is understanding.

None can compare to our Lord. The longer we walk with Him, the more we realize God truly will never forsake us. God has been with us through every season of life, regardless of our condition. He has not left our side. The more we understand God and His ways, the more we trust Him. The Lord has proven to be faithful, put your trust in Him today.

In Christ Alone,

Clay Pots | Feb. 28th

"O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand."

Isaiah 64:8

When I was a child, my mother had a small picture of a little boy on the fridge. It was a drawing with a quote on it, " I know I'm somebody 'cause God don't make no junk!"

This childish little character spoke the truth. God does all things well, and it would be good for us to remind ourselves of this. We are the work of God's hands, and we are precious in His sight. There is nothing that can befall us that the Lord does not know. He works all things for the good of our salvation, and nothing can separate us from the love He has for us in Christ.

We must also know that we belong to God. He created us for His purposes, and we are not our own. Daily, we seek the Lord while entrusting ourselves, knowing that the exalted end of our life is to live for the glory of God.

We are the light of God in our families, friends, and every person in our lives. Let us live for the glory of God as His chosen vessels today, filled with His Spirit, serving Jesus to all those around us. We are the clay, and our Father is the potter. He has created us for his purposes.

In Christ Alone,

Pastor Wight
