In this message from our sermon series “Jesus, What Do I Do With…”, Pastor Brett guides us through Psalm 107:4–32 to explore one of the most universal human experiences: suffering. Whether it comes from our own decisions, the brokenness of the world, or divine redirection, suffering is something no one escapes—and everyone has to make sense of. Psalm 107 presents four case studies that illustrate the different ways people experience and respond to suffering: • The Wanderer – Spiritually disoriented, this person is seeking fulfillment but hasn't found a place to belong. Brett shares a personal story of getting lost in Tokyo to illustrate how spiritual wandering wears down the soul. But the text reminds us: those who cry out to the Lord are delivered and led home. • The Rebel – This is the person who resists God outright. Maybe out of hurt, cynicism, or pride, the rebel pushes back on God's wisdom and builds their own version of truth. Brett connects this to our modern culture's emphasis on self-definition and control, warning that these paths lead to despair. Yet even here, when the rebel cries out, God answers, breaks the chains, and sets them free. • The Fool – Not in overt rebellion, but through small, quiet compromises, the fool slowly loses their appetite for the things of God. They may still go through the motions of faith, but sin has dulled their spiritual senses. Brett calls us to examine our habits, cravings, and compromises, reminding us that Jesus didn't just come to forgive—He came to heal and restore what sin has emptied. • The CEO – Driven and successful, this person trusts more in their strength, hustle, and planning than in God. But storms come—sometimes divinely allowed—to expose our illusions of control. Brett describes this kind of suffering as “divine disruption,” a mercy that brings us back to dependence on God. When the storms rage, God hears our cries, calms the waters, and brings us to a place of peace. The heart of this sermon is a powerful reminder: suffering is not always something to escape—it might be an invitation into the steadfast love of God. Psalm 107 repeats the same chorus throughout: “Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man.” No matter the cause of the pain—wandering, rebellion, sin, or striving—God responds to cries for help with mercy, not condemnation. The message concludes with the story of Horatio Spafford, who wrote the hymn It Is Well With My Soul after losing his four daughters at sea. His suffering, though unimaginable, led to one of the most powerful declarations of faith the Church has known for over 150 years. His story reminds us that sometimes, songs of faith are born not in triumph, but in tragedy. This message invites all of us to examine our lives honestly. Are we numbing our ache, blaming others, or pretending we're fine? Or are we willing to cry out and let Jesus meet us in our distress? Through Psalm 107 and personal testimony, Brett reminds us that Jesus is not far off—He's close to the brokenhearted and ready to transform pain into praise. ⸻ Text: Psalm 107:4–32 Speaker: Brett Series: Jesus, What Do I Do With… Location: Flourishing Grace Church ⸻ Key Themes: Suffering, God's Steadfast Love, Wandering, Rebellion, Sin, Control, Deliverance, Healing, Redemption, Hope in Hardship, Worship in Suffering, Biblical Wisdom ⸻ If this message encouraged you, follow us on SoundCloud and share with someone who needs to be reminded that they are not alone in their pain.

Text: Psalm 138:1-8

Text: Psalm 132:1-18

What does it mean that God is omnipresent - that God is everywhere.Omnipresence means that God is not confined to the limits of any particular space.  He is no less present in one portion of the universe than any other.  In other words, with equal truth and confidence, it can be said from anywhere in the universe, “The Lord is in this place.” Wherever you are, God is right there, right now. The God who is...is everywhere.  One of the best biblical texts on God's omnipresence is Psalm 139. In the first 6 verses, David marvels that God knows everything. Then he goes on to speak of the fact that God is everywhere. “Where can I go from Your Spirit?  Where can I flee from your presence” If I go up to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in the depths, You are there.” “If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast.” (vs. 7-10)I love the way St. Augustine describes God's omnipresence: “God is not partly here or partly there...but He is totally present at every point in the universe.”The truth of God's unlimited presence in the universe is interesting; the awareness of God's unlimited presence in your life is transforming.Realizing that you're never alone – that God really is with you – changes how you look at even the most challenging circumstances.  As we seek to grasp God's omnipresence, there are two other theological truths that we need to recognize.  1.     God's transcendenceTranscendence refers to God's greatness; His utter distinctness from all of His creation. That our transcendent God is everywhere in this vast universe is pretty easy to buy.  It's this second point we struggle with.2.     God's immanenceThis is His nearness, knowability, closeness, and intimacy. The great God who created the entire universe is interested in me.Do you know God this way? Do you sense His nearness as you go through an average day in your life?Here are a few ways you can begin to look to encounter Him. Daily times with God.Through quietness, journaling, Scripture reading, and listening, I carry on a conversation with God. I talk to Him about what's going on in my life. I pour out my heart and ask Him for help. I write down what I think He's saying and speak back to Him about it. These times have deepened my awareness of God's presence in my everyday life. Where do you meet with God? Where do you talk to Him and let Him talk to you. Another way to experience the presence of God is through…Community with believers.In Matthew 18:20, Jesus said, “For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.”Whether in a small group during the week or a large gathering on Sunday, you have the chance to encounter God's presence with the family of God. Let me encourage you to move through your week practicing the presence of God.  If He really is with you, then engage Him. Talk to Him. Be sensitive to ways that He might want to reveal Himself to you.  Text: Psalm 139:1-10Originally recorded on October 10, 2010, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN
