Psalm 139:1-10 , 15-16 , 23-24 I stand amazed at the love and mercy of our Lord. There is not a one of us here this morning worthy of the Tender Mercies of God.

23 Now before faith came, we were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed. 24 So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith. 25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, 26 for in Christ…

Romans 11:25-36 As Paul writes these chapters he is letting the Christians in Rome know that it is a surety that God will Redeem Israel. God loves is unchangeable.

Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? These are just a few of what we call “the ultimate questions of life,” questions that run through our minds and haunt us all of our lives. Do I really matter? Does my life have a purpose? If God exists, does He know I exist? And if He does, does He even care…
