For the last couple of weeks, we have been in a series called “Margin.” Each week we’ve explored what God has to say about living with margin. We’ve discovered that margin is the space in life that enables you to thrive, not just survive and the starting point to finding margin is embracing Sabbath. If you missed any of the series, you can catch up at mylivinghope.ca/messages/.
As I have sought to live within the margins God created for me, I have found quite often that the hardest part is finding the margin that I’ve lost. Have you found this to be true in your life?
This weekend as we continue our series we’ll be exploring Genesis 41 and how the Pharaoh of Egypt found the margin he and his people needed in order to thrive in a difficult situation. I hope you’ll join us as together we discover how you can find margin no matter where in life it is missing.
See you Sunday,
Pastor Kirk
