Hey all. I was just listening to a sermon the other day (Louie Giglio, for those of you who are curious) from the Passion City Church back in January. It was a two-parter launching everyone off into the New Year for Christ. His mainest main point was that God is for us (Rom 8:31), but he had four points in Part II, kind of our response to this news that God is for us, and they keep rolling around in my head:
1. Think who you want to be
2. Trust God with your dreams
3. Work as if God is right there beside you
4. Give generously of who you are
I think these are fantastic points, and I only wish I could convey a fraction of what went on in that podcast. It's one thing to read these and think, "Gee, that's a nice thing to try for" (and it really does seem so easy on the first read-through that we might take it for granted) but it's a totally different thing to live this out, to be sitting there trying to make a choice and suddenly have this brought to your mind by the Holy Spirit (who is praying for us believers, by the way! Check out Romans 8!). This is exactly the kind of vision I was catapulted into 2010 by, one that should be propelling us every year, every month, every week, every day, every hour, every moment!
