Uncertainty just wears us out, doesn’t it? Especially when we’re dealing with loss. Whether it’s the loss of a job or a loss of a friend or family member, it’s exhausting both emotionally and spiritually.

One of the hardest parts of dealing with loss is the change in your normal routine. Not knowing what to do after losing a part of you is so foreign. Although it happens to all of us in different ways, it’s difficult because we don’t know how to move forward. We’re left asking ourselves “NOW WHAT?”

 We need some certainty in what or who we’re going to “go forward to.” We need some “sure footing” to stand on in the days and weeks to come. We need to know, that what we are going forward into will not change too much.

 I have no idea where your emotions go when you hear the word “church,” but I might have a better guess of the kind of person you think Jesus was. He seems pretty certain. He seems pretty reliable. He seems to provide some “sure footing.” I don’t know when the last time you thought about Him was. I don’t know what other people say to you about Him or what you may have learned about Him.

 With all the uncertainty that comes with loneliness and losing someone or even a job…loss leads us to pain, and makes us all look for a remedy.

 For 180+ years our church, Connection Pointe, has hoped for one thing above all others: That people nearby and far away would take their pain and their loss, their loneliness and exhaustion to Jesus. He invites us to do just that.

Matthew 11:28 says, “Come to me, all YOU who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.”

We’d love for you to join us this Christmas season for our Community Christmas Eve Services. For over 180 years, the hope, the certainty, has been the same, finding rest in Jesus. Bring yourself to the most certain and sure-footed answer to your question “Now What?”
