If you’ve ever waited longer than you’d like—at a coffee shop, in traffic, or in life—you know how hard it is to sit still. Pastor Ken opened this week’s message with a vulnerable confession: he used to get frustrated when people were late. But one handwritten quote changed everything:

Time spent waiting should never be regarded as a waste. It should be used in rich communion with a holy God.

That quiet moment set the stage for a sermon soaked in the Word. Psalm 119, the longest chapter in Scripture, is a poetic tribute to God’s Word, structured with care and overflowing with passion. Pastor Ken reminded us that this psalm wasn’t written by someone with a full Bible in hand—just the Pentateuch, perhaps a few other scrolls. And yet, every line points to the treasure Scripture truly is.

We live in a world that promises quick fixes and fleeting truths. But God offers something better: transformation that starts in the mind and seeps into the soul. Romans 12 calls us not to conform but to be transformed. And how does that happen? Through the daily renewing of our minds with God’s truth.

Whether you’re facing temptation, walking through trials, or just feeling spiritually dry—God’s Word is the anchor, the lamp, the map. It’s not a dusty rulebook but a love letter from the Creator who knows you, sees you, and longs to shape you.

The takeaway is simple but challenging: let the Word of God become your portion. Not just your habit, but your treasure. Not just your Sunday companion, but your daily guide. Finish well by living well—and live well by living in the Word.
