Spiritual Hacks: God's Way to the Good Life 

Sunday's Message ::

Balancing Rhythms

 
The Rev. Karin Hejmanowski, preaching

 
In The Light by Matt Dalrymple on creationswap
We gather this week for worship not because our time is not otherwise spoken for, nor simply out of habit. We gather to worship the One Who has created all and Who sustains our every breath. We worship God Who is worthy of everything we are!

 

This week let's come together and join our voices and our hearts one with another and really enjoy our time together. We belong to God and we belong to one another, so it is good to be together.

 

I look forward to seeing you at any of our services: 7:50 a.m., 10 a.m., or 5 p.m. 

  

Peace, 

Karin

 

P.S. Thank you for continuing to wear name tags--they strengthen the feeling of community within our church, and allow us to get to know one another better.

Scripture Passages

Matthew 6:25-44
   
"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life? And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you-you of little faith? Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear?' For it is the Gentiles who strive for all these things; and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. "So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today's trouble is enough for today.

    

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8                  

 

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

  

    a time to be born, and a time to die;
    a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
    a time to kill, and a time to heal;
    a time to break down, and a time to build up;
    a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
    a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
    a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
    a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
    a time to seek, and a time to lose;
    a time to keep, and a time to throw away;
    a time to tear, and a time to sew;
    a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
    a time to love, and a time to hate;
    a time for war, and a time for peace.
