He Restores 🌳
Isaiah 58:10-12 If you extend your soul to the hungry And satisfy the afflicted soul, Then your light shall dawn in the darkness, And your darkness shall be as the noonday. The Lord will guide you continually, And satisfy your soul in drought, And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered garden, And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. Those from among you Shall build the old waste places; You shall raise up the foundations of many generations; And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
Church family,
As I write this, I realize that this week has not gone the way we planned it or saw it going. The wind and fires changed the course of many things. But God knew what was ahead.
Today also marks one week into our 21 days of prayer and fasting. Keep it up.
We can see that, although our daily lives have changed and for some more than others, God hasn’t changed. Our job as the children of God - as His ambassadors - continues. We have more opportunities than ever to do what the verses above say.
God will strengthen us and help us to be a restorer and repairer of the things that are broken. We will minister to broken hearts with God’s Word and love, and we will minister physically with our hands.
He will help us. We will follow Him as He leads us.
Right now, let’s pray this more than ever before, “Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10
If you have a need right now or know someone who does, please reach out to us here. We want to hear from you. We are thankful to everyone who has been able to help us serve our community already, and so many from all over the nation have pitched in to help as well.
Mark your calendar! 🗓
Exciting things are coming to Crosspoint! See below for several of these opportunities to serve and grow together. Be sure to save the dates and be a part.
21 Days of Prayer and Fasting
January 3 - 23, 2025
We are kicking off the year by connecting with our Lord and Savior in a powerful way - demonstrating (and being reminded of) our dependence on Him through prayer and fasting. Click here for fasting recommendations that will help and encourage you through these important, spiritually sharpening days.
Also, I would love for you to join with me in this Bible plan on the YouVersion Bible app. We can share how God is working in our lives through the fast and how He speaks to us through His Word and the devotional each day.
