The Hope of Life

Today, we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, a cornerstone of Christian faith that offers hope for eternal life and transforms our lives. This historical event, evidenced by the empty tomb, the testimony of women, and the disciples’ courage, fulfills our longing for purpose, belonging, and restoration, connecting us to God, His redemptive plan, and fellow believers.

The King of Glory Full of Grace and Truth

Grand entrances set the tone in architecture and life. In Luke 19, Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem fulfills prophecy, revealing Him as the righteous, humble King who brings salvation. Despite mixed reactions, He offers grace and truth, inviting us through faith to embrace His transformative redemption.

The Gospel Profit

Sometimes, we grow discouraged in our relationship with Jesus when we see no worldly gain. This sentiment echoes Malachi 3, where God’s people hardened their hearts, envying the prosperity of the wicked while they struggled. However, God’s promise is far greater—fulfilled through Jesus Christ, the sun of righteousness, who brings healing, remembrance, treasure, and eternal life beyond worldly measure.

Trusting in God’s Unchanging Faithfulness

God’s people faced the accusation of robbing Him due to their cold hearts, lacking joy, peace, and purpose. In love, He called them to return through joyful giving, promising blessings. Similarly, as followers of Christ, we lose joy and peace when giving feels burdensome. Today, God invites us to rediscover worship and discipleship by investing in Him with joy, peace, and hope for our Gospel Mission.
