Sustaining Faith
Sermon Description
Do not grow weary and lose heart. How do we have a growing and sustaining faith that lifts us when you fall, and gives deep joy even when we hurt? Jesus bore our shortcomings and brokenness not with anger, but with joy—for the joy set before him, he endured the cross. Jesus will guide us and saves us each step of the way. He who began a good work in you will carry it to completion.
Main Passage(s)
13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
