We see God's perfect planning in both the moral laws that guide us and the stars in the sky. The changing of seasons and times also show this smart design. We are all made to achieve greatness. Every community can thrive and give thanks to God.

Similarly, the church of Sardis was established with a divine purpose. Despite its later reputation as a 'dead' church, it's important to remember that it too was part of God's perfect plan. The church's existence was not a mistake, but a call to life and revival. This is a reminder to us that even in our own 'Sardis' seasons, when our faith might seem lifeless, there is always potential for God's life-giving power to bring about a new season of growth and fruitfulness.

Therefore, we should not be discouraged by the current state of our faith, but instead, we should trust in God's perfect timing and plan. Just as the church of Sardis was called to wake up and strengthen what remained, we too are called to revive our faith. We can do this by deepening our relationship with God, committing to prayer and the study of His Word, and living out His commandments in our daily lives. As we do so, we will see the life of our faith community flourish, bearing witness to the transformative power of God's love and grace.
