What does your daily routine look like? From our morning coffee to checking our phones, our days are filled with habits we barely think about. But what if our faith became just as natural a part of our everyday lives?
This Remembrance Sunday, as we honoured those who sacrificed for our freedom, Rev. Richard Jackson invited us to reflect on the importance of living intentionally, with love, gratitude, and prayer.
Faith Is More Than a Sunday Practice
In Romans 12:9–13, the Apostle Paul encourages us to make sincere love, kindness, generosity, hospitality, and prayer part of our daily lives.
Faith isn't simply about what we believe or how we feel. It's about how we act, how we treat others, and how we respond to the needs around us.
Pastor Richard reminded us that loving others means taking action: supporting those who struggle, welcoming newcomers, encouraging one another, and making room for people who need community.
What If Prayer Became a Habit?
One of the most thought-provoking moments of the message was a simple challenge:
What if every time you checked your phone, you also took a moment to pray?
We instinctively reach for our phones throughout the day. Imagine if we approached prayer with that same consistency.
As Pastor Richard reminded us, being faithful in prayer doesn't require complicated routines. It begins with intentionally making space for God in the ordinary moments of life.
Making Room for Others
The message concluded with an invitation to practice hospitality and reach out to those around us.
Is there someone feeling lonely, discouraged, or disconnected who could use an invitation to church? Someone who simply needs to feel welcomed and valued?
Sometimes, a small gesture of kindness can become the beginning of a meaningful relationship.
This week, let's challenge ourselves to make faith part of our routine: to pray more often, love more sincerely, and look for opportunities to serve others.
Because following Jesus isn't just something we do on Sundays. It's how we live every day.
🙏 Watch the full message and reflect on how you can make more room for God in your daily life.
