RLCC Sunday Worship

Except for a few negative people, most people have some kind of hope. But not all hope is the same. Most people are just hoping for (or wishing for) a better situation. They are just hoping that the virus would go away and we will be able to finally go back to our normal way of living. But the longer it takes, this kind of hope often leads to frustration and eventually hopelessness. What kind of hope do we truly need? It's the kind of hope that the apostle Paul calls "the hope of the glory of God." (Romans 5:1-5) What does it mean?

Failure has different effects on people. Some are terrified about failure. Others are energized and challenged by it. But those who love the Lord greatly -- and still fail repeatedly -- have a difficult time dealing with failure. Failure makes them feel unworthy and unacceptable before God. Can they still be used by God? Do they still have a future as far as serving God is concerned?

Hope is very important in our lives. When we have hope, we can look forward to the future with great anticipation. We feel excited when we are hopeful. We make plans. We are confident. Life is good. But what if something or someone steals your hope away?

"Lord, do you care?" (Our Story - Part 1)

Sometimes we feel that we are the only ones who are feeling whatever it is that we are feeling. We say, "No one can really understand me." But when we look into the word of God, especially the Gospels, we discover people who are just like us, experiencing the same thing as we are experiencing. We discover that we are not alone in our experiences. We discover that other people's stories can also be our story. How Jesus touched their lives can also be the way that Jesus can touch our lives. Their story can become our story.

1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your[a] life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory. (Colossians 3:1-4)

It hurts when people do not fulfill our expectations. When it happens over and over, we get hurt even more and it becomes a repeated disappointment. When this happens, and it does not stop, we eventually become indifferent. We say to ourselves, or to others, "Been there. Done that. Whatever." This is the challenge of indifference, which is the opposite of love. How do we overcome this? Join us this Sunday for Part 3 of our Wrestling with Love series to learn how.

It's not easy to love others. It's like entering a wrestling match. Especially during this pandemic, we tend to get into each other's nerves. There are conflicts everywhere because of unfulfilled expectations. Although we want to give and receive love, we often end up hurting each other. How do we overcome the challenges of love? Join us starting tomorrow for a new series entitled "Wrestling with Love." Together we can overcome the challenges of love.
