It is so strange to me that my thoughts actually matter to God. You would think that he would have better things to do than to be intimately linked with the constant barrage of self-criticism, judgement of others, obsessions over to-do lists and the unending layers of anxiety that cycle through my mind all day. But God openly expresses His love and delight in us, His created beings. He has permanently linked Himself with us through the Holy Spirit. And I don't know about you, but that makes me feel comforted and fairly nervous at the same time. This week, Phil Tadros joins us to unpack the beautiful and impactful verses contained in Psalm 139. And he reminds us that, if we truly believe that we are loved unconditionally by our heavenly Father, then we need not be ashamed that He sees from the inside out. We can find ourselves emboldened with humble confidence as we come to Him with our sins. With our hopes and dreams and with our really mundane daily chatter. Every time we do this, we strengthen our relationship with our loving, tender, heavenly Father and we can walk as loved and fully known children of God. www.gracevalleychurch.ca Video Contents 00:00 Announcements Slideshow 01:09 Announcements & opening prayer 06:03 Call to Worship 26:55 Prayer for the Church and our city 33:57 Todays scripture reading & Sermon
