Harrisonburg First Church of the Nazarene
Happy Palm Sunday! At the start of this Holy Week, there is good news that our visible eyes cannot see:
Easter isn't canceled! Thank you for joining us today.
John 14:27 NIV
At the start of this Holy Week, there is good news that our visible eyes cannot see:
Easter isn't canceled!
The promise of Easter, that offers new life, also offers new perspective and peace that the world cannot take away.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NIV
We WON'T fix our eyes on:
•The flood of fear in the media and our world
•Political banter that causes division
•The hard hit financial portfolios
•A rising death toll clicker
We WILL fix our eyes on:
•The peace he offers
•The promise that He is working out things for our good
•The prize of resurrection life
•The people in need of hope that is found only in Him
The truth this Holy Week and throughout the entirety of this pandemic + beyond in our lives is this:
Your heart will follow where your eyes are fixed.
Where are your eyes fixed?
Let's pray for perspective.
Some practical ways to “fix your eyes”:
•Read God’s word, start a new bible reading plan on the YouVersion Bible App
•Set a time to pray regularly
•Stay connected to others, even if its virtually
•Turn on some worship music and turn the television off
•Tune into the Holy Week Daily devotional reflections this week + Midweek every Wednesday night.
