February 21 – First Sunday in Lent

The service for the First Sunday in Lent (February 21, 2021). Have you ever wondered “Why me?” Maybe it was after a series of unfortunate events or something that just really overwhelmed you. Abraham was potentially overwhelmed with a test of faith as God asked him to sacrifice his son, Isaac. Yet, Abraham trusted God to get him through an unbearable request. And God did. God gave Abraham more than he could bear so that he dared not lean on himself, but stay totally committed to God. Thus, this shows how God is totally committed to saving us by laying on His beloved son, Jesus, all our sins. Jesus bore it all on the cross, so now we can look to His cross as our way of escape and enduring when troubles and testing of faith seem to overwhelm us.
