As the first rays of dawn cradle the horizon embodying the spirit of change and growth. That's the essence we explore today as we traverse the transformative power of embracing the stretches life presents. From the tender narrative of my daughter, Amelia, and her journey through the universal milestone of losing a baby tooth, we uncover the parallels between physical development and the deepening of our spiritual roots. We delve into the beauty of refinement and share my poignant word for the year, "stretch," inviting you to consider its significance in your own journey toward resilience and preparation for life's inevitable hurdles.
Fasten your spiritual seatbelts as we set course for 21-days of prayer and fasting, guided by the profound wisdom found in Romans 12 and Isaiah 58. We unpack the historical tapestry of Jesus and His disciples, demonstrating how fasting, when married with fervent prayer, serves as a catalyst for personal and communal transformation. As we walk alongside Jesus, learn how this disciplined journey not only sharpens our spiritual clarity but also primes us for the breakthroughs that beckon at the threshold of faith.
Our voyage culminates in a reflection on the potency of worship and obedience, two stalwart companions in the theater of life's battles. Drawing from scriptural accounts where divine intervention pivots on the axis of heartfelt praise, we underscore the significance of reverence and the pursuit of God's best over the complacency of the ordinary. And as we usher in the first Sunday of the new year, join us in a prayer of blessing for the Cornerstone community, an invocation for God's favor and peace to be the compass guiding us through the uncharted waters of tomorrow.
