This past weekend we finished the ME monster series, here are the highlights
The big idea for the day was how difficult it is when you lose something and don't realize you've lost it.
For many of us the thing that we have lost is our passion for our relationship with God. We have become cold and numb in our passion for Jesus.
How do we lose this passion?
1) Lack of understanding
2) Sin
We fast forwarded through the life of David and looked at two lies that he bought into:
1) It is just one compromise
2) This choice or object will truly satisfy me
We learned through the life of David that there is never just one compromise, more follow. The things we chase will never satisfy us, they only leave us empty and wanting more. The more we are willing to turn our back on God and sin the more numb we become towards Him.
We spent time in Psalm 51 where King David repents of his sin and his relationship with God is restored.
There are three things that David prayed that we talked discussed.
1) Approach God-confess your sin and ask for forgiveness
2) Create in me a pure heart
3) Restore the joy of Your salvation
Sin will always separate us from God, and the more we sin the more numb we become. May God continue to help us live out these prayers on daily basis.
Here is a sneak peak at next week
