8/9/20 Weekly Congregational Update

/in , /by

Dear Members and Friends of Holy Trinity,

 

This past Sunday was our largest attendance yet, with a total of 62 for both services!

 

This coming Sunday we will be looking at the gospel reading from Matthew for the basis of our message – the miracle of Jesus Walking On Water, Matthew 14:22-33.   I encourage you to read over this passage several times before then as a devotional.  It may be helpful for you to jot down the key words or thoughts for you of this passage.  Some that I raise are:

  • What is the most important element of this story?
  • What is the context for this miracle?  What has just happened with Jesus and his disciples?
  • Why is Jesus in prayer?
  • Have you even had a time in your life when it seemed like the winds were against you?  Where was God in all this?
  • What is important with the timing of Jesus’ intervention in the lives of the disciples?
  • Does God ever allow storms to be in our lives?  If so, for what purpose?
  • Again, what is the greatest miracle in this story?

 

I hope to see you Sunday in worship, or you seeing me at worship via the internet!
