This week, Pastor David continued our Advent series on the Gifts of Christmas, exploring the themes of hope, love, joy, and peace found in Jesus. He focused on the story of Zechariah from Luke 1, explaining how Zechariah lost his voice due to doubt but ultimately learned to trust God. Through the birth of his son, John, Zechariah experienced God's promises and faithfulness, and this taught him and Elizabeth to submit to God’s will. The sermon highlighted the importance of trusting God even when we face cultural expectations or challenges. The main takeaway was understanding our identity through God's love and remembering that as children of God, we are loved, forgiven, and restored. Let's embrace this love as we surrender to God’s guidance in our lives.
