Come Home
Coming home. For many it’s a wonderful feeling. The sense of returning to a place that is familiar and safe and welcoming. I know that when I have gone away, even for just one night, there is nothing better than coming home to friendly faces and warm embraces, and sleeping in my own bed! It is a wonderful thing!
God calls us home. I’m not talking about eternity (although He will do that), but even now in this lifetime He calls us to return to Him. He invites us back into relationship and friendship, and to be a part of His family. He calls us to trust in Him, to find rest in Him, and to find our purpose in Him. And no matter how long you have traveled away, or how far you think you’ve strayed from Him, He is right there encouraging you to turn back to Him. It doesn’t matter how many walls you’ve put up, or the many awful things you think you’ve done, God is wanting to welcome you back and offer you a place at His table.
Come home to God. You will find rest. You will find peace. You will find a warm embrace and a place for you.
This Sunday at our gathering (4-5pm) we will be finishing off our series in Hosea, looking at chapter 14. We will also be celebrating communion. Our table is open to all who are following Jesus, and have put their hope and trust in Him. We look forward to seeing you!
Blessings, Pastor Mike
