Ready: 

". . .I am with you always, to the end of the age."
-Matthew 28:20b

Set: 

Have you ever had a day when the internet just isn't working well? When the internet is slow, it really gets on my nerves. And do you ever want to go to a site, and the site says "Page can not be displayed"? The internet isn't always reliable.

Ever have a day when your shot isn't falling? When your muscles are sore and won't work properly? Have you ever sprained an ankle or torn an ACL? Our bodies aren't always reliable.

Ever had a teammate turn their back on you? Have you ever been disappointed by a friend? Have you ever let someone down yourself? People aren't always reliable.

So what's my point?

Even though many things in life aren't reliable, God is always reliable. He is always with us, and He always cares for us. He demonstrated that to us through Christ, His only Son whom He sent to die on the cross for us. Through Christ we have new life. And God is available at all times. Any time you want you have "high-speed access" to God. He is always there for you and always hears your prayers.

Go: 

1. Has your computer ever failed you?
2. Has your body ever failed you?
3. Has a person ever failed you?
4. Today, how can you rely more on Christ, the only One who will never fail you?
