Benediction 2024

Excerpt from Rev. Torrey Martin
Chapel Service April 24, 2024

“And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ‘Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.’”
Revelation 21:3 NIV

In the journey of faith, we often strive to decipher the mysteries of the end times, seeking to control what remains beyond our grasp.

Yet, the essence of our pursuit is not found in the anticipation of heaven, but in the presence of Jesus.

He is the prize, the goal, and the fulfillment of our deepest longings.

As we navigate the complexities of life, let us fix our eyes on Him, not as a mere ticket to paradise, but as the ultimate reward.

Jesus beckons us to choose Him wholeheartedly, to walk with Him fervently, and to embody His love daily.

Remember, our aim is not a place; it is a person — Jesus.

He wants us back, fully and truly.
Do we want Him? Amen.
