“My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.”
Psalm 62:1-2
In worship we hear the gospel of Jesus Christ which assures us that we can rest in his work done for us. In a frantic world where people often worry about what they cannot control, it is good to be reminded that all things are under the providence of God. God is in control. We believe Jesus Christ who was crucified is also now risen from the dead, and he reigns as Lord over the whole world. By grace, through faith in him, we rest in New Life in a New Creation.

This week…
In our Bible reading today we hear the story of Naaman who was healed from leprosy. This is a familiar story as it tells us about Naaman, a powerful man in the Syrian army, who had leprosy. He went to see Elisha, the prophet of the LORD, who told him to bathe seven times in the Jordan River. At first Naaman scoffed at this suggestion. Why should he, a powerful man in the Syrian army, go down and bathe in a dirty, muddy river in Israel? However, his servants persuade him to do what Elisha tells him to do. “It’s an easy thing to do. Just do it!” So when Naaman does it, he finds that he is cured. His skin is restored and he comes to faith. In II Kings
5:15 he says, “Now I know that there is no God in all the world except in Israel.” Naaman receives God’s grace and comes to have faith in God and it all begins when a young girl speaks up. Her words show the power of God at work in her. Today is GEMS Sunday and we will celebrate this ministry to young girls who are everywhere meeting the Savior!
