My 9/30/12AM sermon, Contentment, from Hebrews 13:5-6 is now online. The big idea of the sermon is that we should be content in God, our Helper, and flee the love of money, look to Him and be confident that He will provide for our needs. The confession of a contented soul flows in v.6, “The Lord is my Helper; I will not fear, what can man do to me?” As we rest in God’s promise to never leave or forsake us, we find our souls revived to rest in Him alone. This is contentment. The music for our morning pointed to this and to Christ’s finished work on the cross. Is there a better way to boost contentment than to gather at the Lord’s table together and reflect on what God’s done for us in Christ? This was our morning yesterday. It was such a blessing to be a part of it.
In the evening, equally blessed were those who attended a time of corporate prayer for needs that are all around us. Casting our cares on the Lord freed us from the burdens we came with. It was truly a marvelous Lord’s Day. I hope yours was filled with grace as well.
