Tides of Grace: A Journey of Transformation (05/30/'24) -Statement

Tides of Grace: A Journey of Transformation Life is a continuous journey, with time ever advancing. Staying stagnant wastes this precious gift, as true growth and transformation come through embracing change, despite its pain. We must make decisions aligned with our aspirations, letting go of the past and welcoming the future. Our lives, like sacred breaths, are given by God. As echoed in Job, "For as long as life is in me, and the breath of God is in my nostrils," we recognize that the Spirit of God has made us, and the breath of the Almighty gives us life. Our very existence, the air we breathe, and the life we live come from God's grace. Jesus reminds us that we must remain in Him to bear fruit, for apart from Him, we can do nothing. This divine grace encompasses our salvation, sanctification, and perseverance in faith. From beginning to end, it is God's grace that sustains us. Let us cherish each breath, embrace change, and grow in the boundless grace and infinite love of Christ. Pastor Steven G. Lee (May 30, 2024)
