Monday Morning Commentary

Screen shot 2012-02-27 at 12.15.32 AM
This weekend we kicked off our newest series, Grey Matter.  It is a series about knowing and doing God's will when the direct answers are unclear.

The main point of this week's message is that the Bible is designed to lead me closer to the One who wants to guide me.  God wants me to stop asking for guidance and allow Him to be my guide.  The goal is not so that I will have clarity in all my situations, it is so that I will TRUST Him in every situation.

Grey areas are not a problem, they are an opportunity.  An opportunity to trust.  An opportunity to know God better.  An opportunity to focus on what we already know we are to do but aren't doing it yet.

When I look at God's will as a yes or no answer, I cut my relationship with God out of the equation.  The message really spoke to me.  I so often forget that the process is the point.  The process of seeking God and knowing Him is the goal.  I loved when my husband said, "The Bible is not an answer book, it is a worship guide."

Psalm 48:14 says, "This God, He is our God.  He will be our guide even until the end."

You can watch or listen to the message at the Elevation Network, in our archive or on our podcast.
