THE MESSAGE
Your Future Is Bright and Glorious - Pastor Brent Smith
PRAYER FOR WORSHIP
Lord God, we look forward to our future with you and all saints in heaven. We miss those who have died and whose earthly work is done. Cause us to honor them by stewarding our time in this life well. Remember us in your kingdom and remind us that, because of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, our future with You is bright and glorious. Amen.
THIS WEEKEND IN WORSHIP
We are reminded that this gathering is in truth a far greater assemblage than the number of people in this room at this time. The letter to the Hebrews reminds us that as we journey through our earthly lives we are surrounded by “so great a cloud of witnesses” (12:1) and tells of “the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven” and “the spirits of the righteous made perfect” (12:23). The hymn writer reminds us that “the saints on earth and those above but one communion make” (TLH 478:1). On this feast of All Saints, we pray that by God’s grace we, too, will be “numbered with Your saints in glory everlasting” (LSB, p. 225). With joy and thanksgiving, we celebrate the faith that binds us together with the faithful of all times!
