Creation Waits

April 6, 2025
Fifth Sunday of Lent
Isaiah 43:16-21
“Creation Waits”
Rev. Benjamin J. Wines

We look forward to joining you in Worship this Sunday, starting at 11:00AM in the Sanctuary. Rev. Benjamin Wines will bring the message, “Creation Waits”.  We will be reading from Isaiah 43:16-21, and our Call to Worship comes from Psalm 126

Call to Worship, Psalm 126

Leader: When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,

People: We were like those who dream.

Leader: Then our mouth was filled with laughter,

People: And our tongue with shouts of joy;

Leader: Then it was said among the nations,

People: “The Lord has done great things for them.”

Leader: The Lord has done great things for us,

People: And we rejoiced.

Leader: Restore our fortunes, O Lord,

People: Like the watercourses in the Negeb.

Leader: May those who sow in tears

People: Reap with shouts of joy.

Leader: Those who go out weeping,

People: Bearing the seed for sowing,

Leader: Shall come home with shouts of joy,

People: Carrying their sheaves.

Questions for Further Reflection:

How do we see evidence of God’s grace in Creation?

How do we see abundance in Creation?

How might our redemption be good for the world around us?
