Another refreshing message from the Porch, thank you Holy Spirit for leading me to this life-changing sermon!

Great sermon. I love the practical examples. The time taken to pause, stop moving and speak truth for a minute. Very introspective! I especially love how the whole sermon was not only good food for the body, but for those outside the body, it was a crafty and well planned set up to hear the truth of the gospel. This is a keeper 😭👏🏾 Only thing I disagree with is the dating advice. I’m not saying you should put up with crap, but everyone has their thing. If we set the standard for our relationships as, “this person has this problem as I don’t deserve to have to be with them,” we limit the gospel flowing out of our lives. The advice in and of itself, or the mindset behind it, is in my opinion, entitled, prideful and hypocritical. We want to tell people to accept/live with the church and it’s flaws, but not live with and accept people and their flaws??? … We should enter marriage with eyes open, meaning we will be aware of potentially devastating flaws. Our standard should be, “does this person genuinely love and follow God?” If they do, when He decides to show them themselves, either by giving you the freedom to call them on their bull, or by allowing their behaviour to destroy what they love or showing them someone else the same (like Nathan to David), they will repent, surrender and allow God to help them change. And I believe this applies to all areas of life, including family, friendships and church. If God gives us the grace, we should stay!

I have someone who hates me because I have less than they do. This person is a believer. I am having trouble dealing with this person.

What about John 21:17 where Jesus tells Simon "feed my sheep" ?

Great Question!!!!

I struggle with a feeling of powerlessness in my current situation, so I feel like the power is 'saving up' so that I'm entitle to great power in other areas. Even though I give my efforts to certain things in situations, it's like it's never meaningful or activated, so the power that is used for God's Glory just gets stored up and pent up for something big somewhere else. It makes me bitter.

Gods grace cannot be earned. Works are worthless.
