Faith to Move Forward // Here & Now Building Our Future In the Present

“The best is yet to come!” This statement has often been a popular rallying cry, especially for the Church. It’s a declaration rooted in the belief that God has great things in store for his people just beyond the horizon. And it’s a sentiment we’ve shared and stated here at Cornerstone...but, not anymore. Of course, we still believe the future is bright. But who has time for what’s to come when we’re too busy being blessed by what is? You see, the best isn’t “yet to come”—it’s here and now! God is on the move, and he is doing a new thing now, in the midst of our present circumstances. Instead of focusing on the future, we’re determined to fix our attention and follow God’s lead, right here and right now.

We’ve taken huge leaps of faith to get where we are today as a church. But those steps of trust in God won’t take us where we need to go next. New moments require new miracles, and we’re going to need to trust God to come through for us. The good news? God has delivered on His word time after time, and we can trust that He will do it again.
