Sometimes saying “yes” to God’s call fills us with fear. We fear, just like Mary and
Jeremiah, that we aren’t enough. That we’ll be alone. That no one will listen. And
yet, God calls us forward, inviting us to live fully into who we are created to be
and promising to be with us as we move forward through our fear, every step of
the way. Too often we talk about bravery and courage in terms of hero narratives
or big actions, but every day presents many moments to practice small, quiet acts
of courage. May we say “yes” to God, even when our knees shake and our voices
tremble. Join us for worship this Sunday, the Third Sunday of Advent, as we
explore how saying yes to God can lead us to joy!
