When We Stand on Gratitude (5/31/2026; Worthington Christian Church)

How Nehemiah pointed to Jesus: » He left a place of comfort and privilege to enter the brokenness of his people. » He wept over the brokenness. » He overcame opposition. » He is known as the rebuilder. » He finished the work. Nehemiah’s wall eventually fell, but what Jesus did on the cross holds forever. How can our rubble become a testimony to the Lord? By being grateful for God’s presence in all circumstances. Here are some questions to reflect on the story God is writing: » Where is God at work in my life? » How am I expressing gratitude toward God? » What are my life’s actions telling the people around me about God? » What is still being rebuilt? As we close Nehemiah, we realize that without Jesus, we’ll continue to fall, but with Jesus, we stand again. Nehemiah pointed to Jesus because only Jesus can rebuild what’s truly broken.
