Captain Not So Obvious
We continue with our summer series, “Be still and know that I am God.” It can be very difficult to drop our expectations of God in order actually to be confronted by God. As Elijah discovered, this can lead to confusion, frustration, misunderstanding, you name it.
Scripture References: 1 Kings 19:9-13
From Series: "Be Still and Know That I Am God"
As followers of Jesus, we are called to tune out the cacophony and busyness around us and within us in order to be still in God’s presence and listen. This is especially true for Prince of Peace during this “interim” time. Who exactly are we? Who is God calling us to be, and what is God calling us to do? And how do we listen for and really hear God’s word of grace and forgiveness in order to live faithfully and with confidence instead of tentatively and with fear, as individuals and as a community of faith?
