The first Sunday of Advent begins with the end of the story. Isaiah 2:1-5 offers a glimpse into the culmination of human history when God’s goodness and justice puts an end to all earthly conflict. Friends, because we know how the story ends, we can live differently today. We can trust God with our fear, uncertainty, heartache, and difficulty. This is the essence of Christian hope. It’s not wishful thinking - hoping that things might turn out okay. Christian hope is confidence in a future that God has already settled. Because I know who holds tomorrow, I can trust God with today.
If you missed yesterday’s message you can listen to it here or watch the full service on our YouTube channel.
Yours for Christ,Pastor Steve
