As I was writing this week’s sermon, I started into the application part of the message, and suddenly people began popping into my head. There were conversations I have been involved in that flooded my mind. There are people I know who struggle with the issues I am addressing. One by one, I went around the Church and thought of all the people I could apply this sermon to their current situation. 

Two lessons came to me for the average person sitting in the congregation on Sunday.

First, some parts are not meant for you specifically. They may or may not apply to your situation. But know that they are meant for someone – maybe someone like you. 

Second, I was thinking of you when I wrote this message. And there will be parts that were meant for you. 

If you attend on Sunday and open your mind to what is being said, I am sure there is something to be learned and applied to your life, whether it was meant for you or not.
