Life's Roller Coaster: Finding Peace

"I love roller coasters, but I hate when my life feels like a roller coaster. I hate when I feel like my future is unpredictable. I hate when I don’t know what’s next for me. I hate when I don’t know if my marriage is going to recover. I hate when I don’t know if my finances will work out. I hate when I don’t know if my kids will make the right choices. I hate when it feels like my life is hurtling toward the end of a track, and I don’t know what’s going to happen next. Don’t you hate that? Don’t you hate … living by faith? But I’ve found over the years, looking backward is an incredible comfort. That’s what this sermon series is about. It’s about remembering. It’s about looking backwards and finding that comfort. In fact, we said it this way last week: the best way to know what God’s going to do in the future is to look backwards at what He has already done. The best way for you to know what your future looks like … especially your future with God, as you try to anticipate how God may move in your life … the best way to know what He may do in your life, is by looking backwards and seeing what He’s already done."
