Be Prepared

Waiting for the Kingdom

We who follow Jesus are anxiously awaiting his return. But how do we wait well? What does healthy waiting look like? Jesus tells a story about 10 bridesmaids waiting for a wedding - 5 who prepare to wait and 5 who don't. Those who don't prepare, who aren't stocked up on oil, miss the wedding. With this story, Jesus invites us to wait well by spending regular time making ourselves available to the Holy Spirit. That preparedness looks like reading scripture, prayer and other spiritual practices.

This Sunday, we’re going to be outside, worshiping together.

You can click here to get the song lyrics and scriptures.

And the big question is: Who is the least likely kind of person to follow Jesus?

Someone of a different religion?

Someone who’s super-rich?

Someone powerful?

The truth is: there’s no place too wild for God, no person too wild for the Holy Spirit to captivate. Are we paying attention?

Join us Sunday as we learn to spot the Holy Spirit at work everywhere – especially in the least likely places.
