Apr. 14 - Speed Bumps: Health and Humility | Emily Wright

Westlake Hills Presbyterian

Pastor Emily's sermon reflects on the metaphor of speed bumps in life, drawing from her own experience of encountering unexpected obstacles on familiar paths. She asks her congregation to reflect on their own "speed bumps," which range from work challenges to health struggles. Through the story of Jesus healing a blind man, Pastor Emily emphasizes that struggles, whether physical or emotional, are not punishments or tests from God but rather opportunities for divine intervention and revelation. Despite the blind man's rejection from the temple after his healing, Jesus seeks him out, illustrating a profound message of acceptance and understanding. The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder that Jesus, through his unwavering presence and compassion, meets us wherever we are on our journey of faith.
