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 229 a note from God: Lamentations 1-3
So I say, “My splendor is gone and all that I had hoped from the LORD.”
Lamentations 3:18 NIV
Lamentations is a series of laments written by Jeremiah. At this point, the Temple has become a contradiction of all that God intended it to be. In spite of all the problems, Jeremiah still loved the Temple and is crushed by seeing the destruction of it.
In the midst of all the problems that exist in the church today, can we still have hope?
Perhaps the more important question is: In spite of all the problems that the church has today, can YOU be hope to this in search of it?
