The Everyday Sabbath

He'll never reject you.

Luke 4:28-31

All the people in the synagogue were furious when they heard this. They got up, drove him out of the town, and took him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw him off the cliff. But he walked right through the crowd and went on his way.”

Then he went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath he taught the people.

​

The people in Jesus' home town rejected him because he looked ordinary to them. But Jesus continued his relentless pursuit of lost souls. On he went to the next town over.

Jesus still pursues lost souls through things that seem ordinary: his Word, Water, Bread & Wine.

Through these things he follows you with forgiveness. He will never reject you.

​

What comfort do you find in knowing Jesus will never reject you?
