Most of us believe that God answers prayer, but where our faith is often tested is in the when. We want answers now, yet Isaiah 55:8 reminds us, “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, declares the Lord.”

Today, Pastor Jack Morris explores the importance of trusting in God’s perfect timing. While we may not always understand His delays, we can remain faithful and patient, knowing that His timing is always best. Join us as we learn how to wait with confidence, believing that God’s answers come at the right moment for His perfect purpose.

The "Why" Question

With everything happening in the world today, it’s natural to ask, “Why?” If you’ve ever been a parent of young children, you know how relentless that question can be. But today, Pastor Jack Morris challenges us to shift our focus from asking “Why?” to asking “Who?” Instead of trying to understand every circumstance, we are called to trust in who God is—His sovereignty, His goodness, and His perfect plan. Isaiah 55:8 reminds us, “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, declares the Lord.” Join us as we explore how trusting in who God is can bring peace, even when we don’t have all the answers.

Home Blessed

Pastor Jack Morris focuses on the family, taking us back to the very first family in Genesis. What began as a perfect union quickly unraveled when sin entered the world, bringing division and brokenness. Yet, despite the struggles families have faced since the beginning, God’s design for the family remains a beautiful and powerful blessing. Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
