Embrace the Change

Main Point: Embrace the change around you and continue to find ways to give glory to God no matter what situation you are in. Find God’s will in all circumstances.

Pastor’s thoughts:

There are two kinds of changes that can happen in our lives.  

-First, is the kind of change we have control over. For example, when we decide to lose weight we make a change.  

-Second, there is the kind of change that we have no control over like a coronavirus pandemic.  

The first one can be hard but is less stressful but the second one can really create stress and anxiety.  

Allow me to propose a cure for stress and anxiety. “Embrace the change”.  

Embrace the change and find God’s will in it.  

Story of Job: 

Job 1:1-4. Job was in the perfect situation, with a perfect family. Then everything fell apart. He loses his family/health.

Job 1:19-22. Job was hit with tragedy and Job did not blame God.

But one day in Job 42:1-6, after God explains to Job that his power is unmeasurable Job finally stops asking questions and just submits.

Pastor’s thoughts:

-I believe God is speaking to the church during this pandemic. Don’t ask question, just submit to the authority of God and trust him.  

In Conclusion:

Listen carefully to this treasure. If we repent for questioning God, blessings are coming. Embrace the change.
