Acts 17:16-18;
Acts 17:16;
Exodus 20:5;
Matthew 6:21Peple amaze me! Really they do. They want this, they want that! When they get what they want it isn't enough! What will satisfy them if they are not satisfied with what they already have?
Listen to this from Rob Wengre: A Pastor from GCC:
Did you know that a good thing can sabbatage your life causing a massive wreckage? It's true.
I wanted so much to have a close relationship with my kids that I lost my tough love at some point. Our relationship is now wrecked!
Did you also know that you, as we all do, have an idol in our hearts? Yes, that is correct! We all do, but the question is...What is YOUR idol? What do you cherish? Is it that mom, you want the best for your kids so you place ecspectation on them that eventually puch them AWAY? Or is it dad, that you work so many hours because you feel like you need to in order to make money for your family that you don't have time to spend with your kids, and by the time you DO have the time, they are grown and don't know who you are?
This is a 'SERVE SOMEBODY' Sel-Test and is followed with Scripture
1. Imagination: Your religion is what you do with your sloitude-William Temple
What do your thoughts drift effortlessly to when there is nothing else demanding your attention?
What do you enjoy daydreaming about?
What fills your mind when you have nothing else to think about?
2. Money: (Everyone LOVES that name don't they?): Where your treasure is there your heart will be also
What does our money flow effortlessly toward?
3. Emotion: (Such a touchy topic): What causes almost uncontrollable emotions in YOU?
Anger-"What is so important to you that you must have it all costs, to the point that you unleash rage?"
Fear-"What is so important to you that if it is threatened, you are deeply anxious and almost paralyzed with fear?
Sadness-What is so important to you that if you lost it, you would feel as though you have no more meaning?
