Sermon - 2019-09-08 - God's Work, Our Hands

Today as we gather together for God’s Work, Our Hands. We go out into the community as disciples of Jesus Christ. We are doing the work that we can do not for our own benefit or glory but truly for the sake of our neighbors, those who are in need and we are able to share God’s Love with them. Today is the day that we take what we have learned from a book, the Bible and clearly state to the community that God’s Love looks like this. It looks like cleaning the dirt and grime of this world. It looks like getting our hands dirty for the sake of someone else. It is about caring, not because we are required to or we will benefit from it but solely that we may share God’s Love with that person.

I do a lot of talking here in this place but I want to remind you that it is because of your time, effort, and willing hands and hearts that we are able to do and be so much in this place. Today our sermon is short but I want you to dwell upon the love of God that you are sharing with the people you are serving today.
