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?
