I am often asked where I find my inspiration for sermons - this is one place. I believe God speaks to me daily and this is a place where you can look over my shoulder as I write some notes to myself as we journey towards Sunday . . .

Day 40 a note from God: Exodus 33-35
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Leave this place, you and the people you brought up out of Egypt, and go up to the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ Exodus 33:1 NIV
"Are we there yet?" is a familiar chorus that rings out from many a back seat.
It certainly was a chorus of the Israelites as they journeyed through the wilderness.
Consider that this was also the chorus of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The promise had been given soooooo long ago. How many times must we ask, "Are we there yet?"
The time is coming. God has promised.
We grow impatient and cry out to God, "How much longer must we wait?"
God promises. We wait. Are we there yet?
Good News. God is faithful. God's promises come true.
Are we there yet? Not quite, but be patient. Your time is coming.
Hold on to your faith for just a while longer . . .
