“Empowered”
Romans 8:1-11
As we’ve begun discussing our vision and values, I’ve had two very interesting reactions. First, how great is it that the Almighty God loves us and wants to have relationship with us. God has called us, as a church, to be the reflection of His truth, and this only happens through a deepening relationship with Him! What a blessing. But the second part hit me like a ton of bricks–how can we see this become a reality? I don’t have the power to save people, stop sinning, or even do anything right. In fact, the Apostle Paul refers to this in Romans 7 where he says that the very thing he wants to do he can’t, but the very thing he doesn’t want to do, he does. The question for us is this: is it even possible for me to live the life of faith? As we continue in our message series, “Becoming a Reflection of God’s Truth,” we will explore how God empowers the life of a believer through the person and work of the Holy Spirit. I’m excited to gather with you all this Sunday!
