Like Abraham or the disciples, everyone believer’s life is “unfinished,” in that we never arrive at a completion of all that we aim to be about. We find our fulfillment, however, in the place that we have in God’s everlasting purposes.

God works through ordinary people in extraordinary ways.  The examples in today’s Scriptures are Shiphrah, Puah, Jochebed, Miriam, and Pharaoh’s daughter.

We are urged throughout the Bible not to think we have “arrived” in faith but to keep pressing on to “know the Lord.”

We need to recognize that we are sojourners on this earth, so that we ground our lives in the eternal, rather than being trapped in the trivialities or problems of the present.

Today our teens present elements of the worship service.

We are brought to spiritual wholeness through Christ.
