Patience is a virtue seemingly in short supply these days. All too often strong arm tactics rule the day. Jesus lived a life of enlightenment and patience to overcome adversity and endured the cross of our salvation. His life and sacrifice kindle our faith in God and life everlasting. Let us rekindle our faith in Jesus this morning through communion. Let the embers of patience and love ignite in our hearts. Together we can make a difference for the love of God. Leave this place, speak and live the truth of Jesus, to the glory of God.
Amen.

Based on readings for the week; Hebrews 11:29-12:2.
