Bird Watching | May 29th

"Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"

Matthew 6:26

Have you watched and listened to the God of creation teach you lessons through His creation? Scripture is supreme in instruction, but the Holy Spirit will relay truth to us through the witness of creation.

It is amazing to watch the birds this time of year as they nest in various places. Some chose a tree that appears more natural, while others will find a hidden spot within a man-made structure. You will hear them sing and be busy building their nest while God supplies their needs. What a wonder to witness.

How much more beloved will God care for you? You are infinitely more valuable in the sight of God. You are His beloved, and He is yours. There is nothing in this life that you will experience that will separate you from His lovingkindness. Watch the birds and know that the Lord is watching over you.

In Christ Alone.

Welcome Home | May 28th

"Return to me, and I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts."

Malachi 3:7

Unfortunately, there are times when relationships are severed. A misunderstanding or an argument can cause people not to speak with one another. Sometimes, the fear of being rejected or not forgiven keeps individuals apart.

Let us remember that God is willing to forgive. He will not turn the penitent heart away. The Lord invites you to return to Him. Adam and Eve hid themselves, but God sought them out. The Good Shepherd found the lost lamb. The father received his prodigal son home again by running to him.

Do not hesitate any longer. Seek the forgiveness and mercy of your Heavenly Father. He will return to you when you return to Him.

In Christ Alone.

The Fountain of Life | May 26th

"On that day there shall be a fountain opened for the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and uncleanness."

Zechariah 13:1

The fountain Zechariah foresaw has opened in Christ. The sinless Lamb of God laid down His life for His own, and the blood of Christ has cleansed us from our sins and uncleanness.

It is the day that we should rejoice in—the day Christ reconciled us to God. He brought us into right standing with God while also removing our sins from us, as far as the East is from the West.

The fountain is open in the person of Jesus Christ. This fountain shall never lose its cleansing power and will freely cleanse all who seek to be forgiven and made whole. Come today, be made clean, and receive a refresher from God.

In Christ Alone,

Pastor Wight
