I had the distinct privilege of preaching at Cedar Springs CP Church for our last combined Sunday night revival meeting. I used Isaiah 62:1-7 as my text. It is fascinating that in verses 6 and 7, the prophet prompts his hearers to give the Lord "no rest" until he make Jerusalem a "praise in the earth". While this is written to ancient Hebrew people in the kingdom of Judah, the spiritual principal applies to modern day Christians as well. I pray that Cumberland Presbyterians will internalize this instruction and give God no rest until Cumberland Presbyterianism becomes a byword for the desire to follow God passionately and with intent.
By the way, I've always found a sweet abiding spirit at Cedar Springs. For anyone looking for a church home, check them out. They worship on Sundays at 9:00 am, central time.
