New ark park to open in July 2016
Ravi
Zacharias points out that when God told Noah to build an ark He gave detailed
instructions. The design did not
include a rudder or a sail though.
Those inside the ark were to put their complete trust in God. They had no control over their lives. God would
guide them to their final resting spot.
We know the end of the story—dry ground appeared and they began their
life on land all over again.
Speaking
of not having any control in life, and with all the wild things going on in the
world, including outrageous weather, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, countries
sinking under socialism and communism, Islamic jihadists, the sexual revolution, stealing, lying,
killing, and add to that presidential candidates conspiracy theories, see here, life doesn’t look too promising at this time.
But
after I attended a memorial service for a long time member of Cascade church,
Timothy, I began to see the hope in Jesus again. Pastor Jan read I Corinthians 15:35-39 from The
Message. He reassured us that we
are just seeds now, but when those who believe in Jesus are resurrected, we will
bloom into our real bodies. I felt enveloped in God’s love as Pastor Scott
played, and as Pastor Nate did the welcome, prayer, and message on Romans 1:20. There is hope after all if we will just
put our trust in Jesus.
