HVC welcomes Special Guest, Brigette Metcalf!

There is sweetness in the struggle!

"And he started to share. He was so like it was like I was talking to a winemaster or something like that. And he starts to tell me all about it. He said, Bridget, it's not about being in Italy. It 's not being in Napa Valley. It 's not about these different locations. He goes, It 's all about the struggle. And I was like, what? He goes, It 's all about the struggle. So Jeffrey starts to say, Bridget, the best wines the vine had to go through the biggest struggle. He goes, if the soil is too soft and it doesn't have any adversity in it, he goes, the grape is not as sweet. He goes, but it has a little rocks and it has a little bit of a hard time getting through the soil and stuff like that. It has to fight to go down into the soil to be stable. He goes, that makes the sweetest grape. And I was like, can I use that for a sermon? I literally started writing this down as he was telling me this story. And I thought, wow, is that not what our life is like? We think that the struggle is going to take us out. We think that it's going to wipe us off the map. But guess what it does? It actually makes us stronger. It makes us sweeter. It makes us appreciate life more. It makes us kinder. And you know what? It makes us more attractive. People want to be around those sweeter people. When I'm bitter, nobody wants to be around me. When I'm ugly, nobody wants to be around me. But when I give it to Jesus and I go through the struggle, it doesn't say that he'll take us out, takes us through takes us through the struggle. That 's what God is wanting to do in our lives. He wants to make us sweeter. He wants to make us more generous. He wants us to care about things that are beyond us, not just in our own little world."
