In today’s message, the pastor introduced the new series "Breathe Again," focusing on finding God’s peace amid life’s pressures and stress. He emphasized that stress is real and unavoidable, but God’s strength is greater and can help us rise above our struggles rather than removing them. Using examples like David’s prayer for a higher rock and the engineering of Hoover Dam, he illustrated how pressure can actually strengthen us when we anchor ourselves in God. The sermon also highlighted that stress reveals where we place our trust and invites us to lean into God through prayer, which acts like spiritual breathing, exchanging anxiety for peace. Stress can be a setup for God’s peace, as Jesus invites the weary to come to Him for rest and strength, not by removing burdens but by sharing them. Finally, the pastor reminded us that no matter the pressure or circumstances, God’s plans for us remain firm and unshaken, encouraging us to trust Him and release our worries to Him. The message closed with a call to surrender our burdens to God and breathe again in His peace and strength.
