Advent Message #1

In these trying times, it's good to be reminded that God is Sovereign.  

As we enter the Advent season, thinking about, meditating on the coming of our Savior, I've decided to return to one of my favorite holiday vacation spots for the next few weeks at Faith Southern.  Galatians 4:4-5 may not be the first text that comes to mind at Christmas, but it's a favorite, and I know several others have gone here often as well. 

As we began our study yesterday, we looked at the phrase "fullness of time," reminding ourselves that Christ came exactly when God had planned, when He had moved history to the precise moment, when the circumstances were ripe for the fulfillment of His plan to save His people.  Our amazing, Sovereign King at work. 

And remember, this same sovereign King is still on the throne, never surprised by world events, never having to back peddle and try to get things "back on track."  Even in 2020, our God is in control.  I pray this is a blessing to someone.
