Take a Moment Prayer: Week of March 17

Look for this prayer each week. Take time to pray it each day and know that your church family is saying this prayer too.

"Take a Moment" prayer beginning Sunday, March 17 - Gracious God, as I travel on this lenten road, it's impossible not to notice the cracks and potholes left behind because of my sin, and the opportunities you put before me that I have ignored. I hang my head in sorrow and shame as I come before you with my confession for my shortcomings. As I lift my eyes to the cross and remember the price paid for my sin, I am humbled by your grace and mercy that is poured over me...healing my soul and giving me yet another chance to walk with Jesus, and shine His light in a world overwhelmed by darkness. Thank you God for your great love. Amen.

The Pastor's Pen - January 2024

We should come away from Christmas reminded that Jesus came into this world so that things could be different. He did not come so that we could have a holiday including time off from work or school, presents, cookies, lots of other food and time with friends and family. The story of Jesus does not end at the stable. Jesus grows up and becomes our teacher and example for how God calls us to live.
