9.22.10 - 10.20.10
Tonight at AYM we’re diving into a new series entitled, “Rescued from an Ordinary Life.” Over the next 5 weeks we’re going to be looking at “existing vs. living.” So many of us these days, go through life just existing as opposed to living life. We do the things that we deem “normal” because we observe so much of it going on around us, without even thinking twice about it. We become predictable, almost robotic, as we move from experience to experience, minute to minute, day to day, month to month, year to year, and so on and so on, until before you know it, life’s passing you by at a crazy pace…
Sound familiar!? Well, God never planned for you to merely exist, He wants you to live life, and live it to the fullest! Look at what it says in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
God wants you and me to live full, fulfilling, exciting lives! That’s why He sent Jesus, that’s why He does what He does!You may be thinking, well if that’s the case, then why am I, not living a full life?! Why am I so unhappy about where my life is at right now?! You’re not alone either, alot of us are very unhappy with our life sometimes, to the point where some of us pursue all kinds of distractions in an effort to supplement our “ordinary” life. Money, relationships, sex, drugs, drinking, etc. We try to alleveate our life’s “ordinary” boring, unfulfilling status with whatever is available, or our environments deem “normal.”
I believe that just like the bible can tell us about how God wants us to live full, fullfilling lives, it can also show us why we aren’t living full, fullfilling lives at the moment. Instead, living ordinary, unfulfilling lives.
