     | 79 views

    God invites us to exchange anxiety for peace by rejoicing, praying with gratitude, and focusing our minds on what is true and good.

    Friends, if your heart has felt heavy this week, you’re in familiar company. News feeds shout, calendars crowd, bills blink, phones buzz, and sleep slips away. We carry invisible backpacks stuffed with what-ifs and worst-case scenarios. Anxiety can feel like a bully in the hallway, pushing us ...read more

    God continually leads us in victory, spreading Christ’s transforming presence through us, even in weakness, so that others experience the hope and fragrance of grace.

    Some weeks feel like we’re pushing a grocery cart with a wobbly wheel through a crowded store—everything leaning sideways, squeaking loudly, and refusing to go where we want. And yet, here we are, gathered in grace, held by the hand of a God who never loses a battle and never misplaces a child. ...read more

    As we pray for the unity of the body of Christ, pray for power, for love, and for the fullness of God Himself.

    At a wedding rehearsal in Concord, California, the pastor was explaining the symbolism of the unity candle. “After the middle candle is lit,” he said, “blowing out the two side candles means the two become one.” “Oh,” someone in the wedding party exclaimed. ...read more

    Living Waters Fellowship is inviting you to a special Mother’s Day celebration on Sunday, May 12th at 10 a.m. We’ll be looking at “A Mother’s Journey” from the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus.

    Mother’s Day Message: “A Mother’s Journey” As we begin our time together on this Mother’s Day, I remember years ago when I was preparing for a Mother’s Day message and Michaela said, “And what’s the problem, you already know what to say.” Now, it’s not so much what she said, but it was the tone ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 524 views

    In 2 Corinthians 7, we overall learn that godly grief brings about repentance and worldly grief emphasizes sorrow ‘cause we got caught. As the people of God, we are about repentance and restoration. Through repentance, God the Father brings about a change in us to become more like Jesus.

    The sermon urges us to cherish our inherited faith, overcome fear, and boldly nurture and protect the gifts and gospel entrusted to us by God.

    If you hold this letter up to your ear, you can almost hear the heartbeat behind it. Paul is nearer to the end than the beginning. Cold walls. Thin blankets. Thick memories.

    God relentlessly pursues us with grace, even when we run or resist, inviting us to trust His presence and respond to His call.

    Some of us know the sound of God’s whisper as well as we know our own name. It comes in the quiet of a morning commute, in the nudge you can’t shake, in the Scripture that lands like a letter with your address on it. And some of us know the sound of our feet when they’re running in the opposite ...read more

     | 270 views

    God welcomes honest, humble prayers from needy hearts; true prayer is not performance, but sincere confession that receives mercy and transforms us by His grace.

    If your heart is tired and your prayers feel thin, you’re in the right place. The Lord welcomes real people with real needs and real words. He is not looking for polish; He is listening for honesty. He is not impressed by our resumes; He is moved by our repentance. We’ve all had those moments—hands ...read more

    Gratitude opens our hearts to God’s presence, transforming ordinary moments and burdens into opportunities for praise, hope, and deeper relationship with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with full hearts; some with heavy ones. Either way, here you are, and here God is—nearer than the breath you just took. Picture an old, sturdy gate swinging open. Hear the hinges creak a welcome. On the other side? Not a cold courtyard, but the warm smile of a Father who ...read more
