Sermon: "Where Are You Headed?"
Scriptures:
Psalm 118:1-2, 19-29
Matthew 21:1-11
This year during Lent we will be encountering many beloved stories about Jesus and the people who come to him. He will meet Nicodemus at night, he will find a Samaritan woman at a well, he will heal a man who was born without sight. In each case these people are seeking something. It might be a new beginning, a deeper faith, a different life, or maybe they aren’t even sure what it is that they seek. Jesus questions and conversation lead the people in surprising new ways which often leads to new questions.
This series is based on the series that A Sanctified Art put together. There will be a devotional booklet and prayer cards from them and of course our theme. Each week we will be asking different questions. Along the way we won’t always find the answer, but the hope is that they can help us to see differently, perhaps gain a new perspective. Hopefully they help us to find a wider grace and a deeper faith.
Indeed, as the folks from A Sanctified Art who developed this series say, and I echo, “What am I seeking? What is God seeking.”
This is an invitation to be open to the spiritual practice of seeking. It is an opportunity to look at our assumptions, soften our hearts, widen our vision, and be open to the still speaking voice of our still speaking God.
Daily Questions taken from the Series can be found on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/First.UCC.Salisbury/
“No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey you are welcome here.” At First UCC this is more than a catch phrase; it’s who we are. If you are just wondering about God and want to learn more you are welcome here. It you have been a believer your whole life, you are welcome here. If you have questions, you are welcome here. If you are young or old, or somewhere in the middle, you are welcome here. If you haven’t fit in anywhere else, you are welcome here! No matter who you are, you are welcome here!
We are a bunch of seekers on a journey. We learn together and we serve together. We believe that God is love and that all persons are created in God’s own image. We are people from all walks of life with varied life experiences doing our best to live out God’s love in the world. So truly “No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey you are welcome here.”
