Persistence is a common thread in each of the lectionary passages for today. In our Old Testament reading from Jeremiah, the prophet speaks of the persistence of God, who seeks a new covenant with God’s people after the time of destruction has ended. In the future, God promises a time of replanting, growth and abundant life. The psalmist extols God’s Laws and proclaims their own desire to be persistent in following them. In the Epistle reading from 1 Timothy, the author encourages a congregation to proclaim the Gospel message; “be persistent whether the time is favorable or unfavorable.” In the Gospel reading from Luke, Jesus tells the story of the widow, who persistently sought justice until the judge relented and granted her request.

Almighty and everlasting God, in Christ you have revealed your glory among the nations: Preserve the works of your mercy, that your Church throughout the world may persevere with steadfast faith in the confession of your Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
“Why am I a member of Westminster Presbyterian Church? Two words keep floating up in a rather persistent way – “home” and “family” – and I realized that it is an inescapable fact that is what this church means to me. During my 40 years here, so many life events have happened and Westminster has been there for me through all those times – good and bad. It has been my home and family. They say “home is where the heart is” and I’ve found the heart of Westminster to be as open and warm as a family’s!”
