God wants your trust and your 'yes' when He calls you, even when it doesn't make sense. Our ability to walk in our God-given calling hinges on our willingness to say 'yes' to what God asks us to do. The events surrounding Palm Sunday and Easter exemplify the power of saying 'yes' to God when things don't make sense. His disciples were witnesses to the greatest gift this world has ever received and they would have missed it if they chose not to trust Him and follow His leading. 

Palm Sunday is Jesus’ public proclamation that He is the Messiah people have been praying and waiting for. The people there that day knew the King they were waiting for had arrived. When we understand the symbolism of the events that occurred on Palm Sunday, we see the significance of the proclamation “Hosanna, blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.”

As a culture we don’t like to wait, but God uses waiting in our lives for our good. Waiting is designed to develop us as we learn we can trust the character of Jesus. If He healed then, He heals now. If He saved then, He saves now. If He cared then, He cares now. When we know who He is, we understand ourselves and who He calls us to be.

God wants you to decide. The fear of not picking perfect leaves you in a world of indecision and causes crippling anxiety. We want God to tell us what to do, but He wants to give us the wisdom to decide. If you’re trying to make decisions with God, He is a good and perfect guide and He will get you where you need to go.

When life gets challenging we each have a decision to make. Are we going to keep believing when life gets hard, or are we going to give up? If we lean on God's people, focus on God's power, and refuse to surrender our worship we can keep our faith when life gets hard. 

Pastor Doug Wekenman gives us four practical ways that we can go from a mundane life to a life full of purpose by becoming more intentional.

When we are fully rooted in Christ and His sacrificial love for us we have access to His power in us, to produce the fruit He has for our lives. The answer to seeing good things come out of our lives is to be honest with Jesus, be committed to Jesus, and then go out and be the love of Jesus to others that you have freely received from Him.

Pastor Jimmy Rollins preaches out of Genesis 22, the story of Abraham and Isaac. What do we do when God asks more of us and it makes us uncomfortable? God wants us to have unfamiliar faith, to be okay when we feel uncomfortable because in those seasons we are building our faith and becoming more of who God created us to be.

It’s not easy to share our faith with others, and yet it is what Jesus calls us to do. How do we share the good news of Jesus with others? We have to remind ourselves that we have access to the Holy Spirit, we all have a testimony, and we all have a place to invite people to experience God, because of the local church.

We celebrate 20 years of Red Rocks Church by looking back with gratitude at all God has done. When we are grateful for God's past faithfulness, and we remind ourselves of it, we are able to build our faith for more miracles in the future.
