The Promises Of God - Receiving, Believing, Waiting, Seeing, And Blessing by Rev. Donnell Wyche - a2vc.org. Like us on fb.com/vineyardannarbor or watch our livestream Sundays @ 10:45am - vimeo.com/annarborvineyard

Today's sermon by Pastor Donnell encourages us to become more aware of the patterns in our lives and how they intersect with our faith and personal growth. Pastor Donnell begins by highlighting the human brain's natural ability for pattern recognition, using an anecdote about a farmers market to show how this can sometimes lead to misunderstandings. The discussion then deepens, with Pastor Donnell using biblical narratives and personal stories to illustrate that life's journey often involves a process of waiting, recognizing, and responding to the promises of God.

Various examples, such as the story of the first humans in the garden, the pattern recognition skills of quarterbacks, and the learning process of reading, are used by Pastor Donnell to demonstrate how understanding and interpreting life's patterns can be transformative. The sermon stresses the importance of breaking away from negative patterns and putting our trust in God's promises for a better and more fulfilling life. Pastor Donnell calls on the congregation to nurture a life of faith, trust, and obedience to God, underlining the need to move away from the cycle of sin and towards the life that God desires for us.

In its conclusion, Pastor Donnell invites the congregation to reflect on the past year, acknowledging God's presence in their lives and contemplating what new 'seeds' of faith they might sow for the upcoming year. The overarching message is about placing trust in God's promises, discerning the patterns in our lives, and taking an active role in our spiritual development.
