    We need to be content exactly where we’re at; with who we have and what we have and who we are.

    Paul writes to the church and to us that we can be content and happy and thankful, even in the hard times in our lives. Jesus models this thankfulness even when death on a cross is eminent.

    I want to preach a sermon titled after a very popular song called, “Singing in the Rain.”

    The words of this song “Singing in The Rain…” come from a famous song sung by Donald O’ Conner. The idea of course is that we often plan things in life and then the rain comes along and spoils those plans. For example: • We are going to watch a parade, but the rain comes and spoils our ...read more

    Life circumstances may not be ideal where we are. We may be struggling. Perhaps we feel that we could serve the Lord more effectively in a better situation or different location. But God wants us to bloom where we are planted!

    James Oppenheim said, “The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet,”(1) and this is what the Lord wants every believer to understand. We’re supposed to find fulfillment and contentment right where God’s placed us, and to bloom where we’re planted. An ...read more
