Dear Members and Friends of Trinity Downtown:

Have you ever felt like you’ve been abandoned by your friends? Perhaps you weren’t invited or included in an important social event, or none of your friends recognized (or even seemed to care) that you were facing a crisis in your life. Can you recall a time when you were disappointed with God, and felt like He had forgotten you, and that your prayers were bouncing off the ceiling and never getting to His ears?

The Hebrew Bible records that Joseph, one of the patriarchs of ancient Israel, endured times when he was truly abandoned by his family or friends. His life seemed to swing from great successes to heartbreaking failures. But Joseph persevered simply because he had faith that the Lord’s steadfast love never ceases.

God invites us to trust that the “ordinary” events of our life will be inexplicably and mysteriously used to hone our personalities into something more pleasing to Him and deepen our relationship with Him. What circumstances are you facing today that hinder your sense of God’s active work in your life? Have you discovered specific disciplines (like having a consistent quiet time) that help you realize God’s abiding intervention in your life?

This Sunday at Trinity Downtown, come find a God whose steadfast love helps us to weather the emotional ups and downs that come our way. Come worship the God that pursues each of us, even if we didn’t care about a relationship with him. Come hear about Jesus, who suffered, died and rose again to pay the penalty for your sins and open the way for the Holy Spirit to continually whisper to your heart “You know, I really DO love you so deeply that you can’t fully comprehend it.”

This weekend, give Him the opportunity to re-position your heart, redeem your circumstances and deepen your recognition that you are totally dependent upon Him for both your salvation and your very life.
