This year some of us know how the waters of unemployment can come against us. You worked hard for that company but instead of getting a raise you got a pink slip. For someone the death of a loved one may have been your rushing water. You didn’t know how to make it. Who to turn to? Where to go? I don’t know what may have come your way this year. Maybe you had trouble in the home. That child wouldn’t act right. That parent just wouldn’t understand. Fighting and arguing may have replaced love and affection for you. It seems like the raging waters are trying to wash you away. I must confess church today, I don’t know what trouble you may have seen this year. I don’t know what burden you had to bear. I don’t know what sorrow might have been yours or pain you had to endure. I don’t know how many nights you stayed up counting sheep to fall asleep. I don’t know how many times you had to borrow from one credit card to pay another. But I know this, that after all the trouble in our world, in our country, in our neighborhood this year. After all that has gone on in our church, in our homes, in our lives. The reason we are still here today is because the Lord has been on our side.
