00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.459
 It's good to have all of you here this morning.

00:00:06.100 --> 00:00:07.500
 We're going to go ahead and get started.

00:00:07.500 --> 00:00:12.580
 I'll pray for us and then we'll begin the study.

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:16.240
 Father, I pray that you would go before us this morning.

00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:19.600
 Thank you for the instruction that you've given to us in your word.

00:00:20.379 --> 00:00:25.199
 Thank you for the promises that we have in the scripture,

00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:27.760
 the guidance, the instruction,

00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:32.260
 but most importantly, thank you for the power that we can enjoy

00:00:32.260 --> 00:00:34.280
 through the Holy Spirit.

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:39.560
 And as we put your word to work in our lives,

00:00:40.020 --> 00:00:45.260
 that we can experience the overcoming power of your spirit

00:00:45.260 --> 00:00:49.840
 working through us to help accomplish the seemingly impossible.

00:00:50.740 --> 00:00:53.060
 Of course, it is impossible without your help,

00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:55.760
 but with your help, it is possible.

00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:59.640
 And so we pray that you would guide us and direct us this morning

00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:01.659
 in this study and throughout the next six weeks

00:01:01.659 --> 00:01:04.259
 as we look into passions of the heart.

00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:07.659
 I pray that you would be honored and glorified through our time together.

00:01:07.819 --> 00:01:09.280
 In Jesus' name, amen.

00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:13.539
 Well, I want to encourage you before we get started to,

00:01:14.060 --> 00:01:15.340
 hopefully you all have one of these.

00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:20.200
 And this is going to kind of be our tour guide,

00:01:20.620 --> 00:01:21.840
 map as it were.

00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:26.579
 And so as you think about the study and as we're working through this together,

00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:29.100
 the goal is that we'll be doing this,

00:01:29.460 --> 00:01:33.719
 hopefully interactively through this study guide

00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:35.500
 and through some time of teaching

00:01:35.500 --> 00:01:37.520
 and through some responses that we get.

00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:41.280
 And I imagine that,

00:01:41.399 --> 00:01:44.920
 let me, this is grabbing me.

00:01:47.420 --> 00:01:51.899
 I imagine that some of you are wondering

00:01:51.899 --> 00:01:54.039
 what in the world have we gotten ourselves into.

00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:56.479
 And I want to say that,

00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:57.459
 if you have a pen,

00:01:57.579 --> 00:02:00.620
 it might be good to have a way to take some notes.

00:02:00.979 --> 00:02:01.879
 Anyone need a pen?

00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:03.159
 Okay.

00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:04.679
 I'm going to give this to Stephen.

00:02:05.679 --> 00:02:08.840
 And if you can be responsible for getting those out,

00:02:08.900 --> 00:02:09.300
 that'd be great.

00:02:11.819 --> 00:02:13.039
 Some of you may be wondering,

00:02:13.300 --> 00:02:15.759
 what in the world have we gotten ourselves into?

00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:18.800
 What is this going to be like?

00:02:20.099 --> 00:02:24.560
 I've got some kids who are high schoolers,

00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:25.219
 who are teenagers,

00:02:25.500 --> 00:02:28.539
 and I'm a little concerned about the content.

00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:30.199
 Maybe you've read the book,

00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:31.639
 or you've heard about the book,

00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:32.000
 and you're like,

00:02:32.179 --> 00:02:37.379
 I'm not so sure my teens are ready for this subject matter.

00:02:39.219 --> 00:02:42.119
 But going back several months now,

00:02:42.379 --> 00:02:45.199
 the pastoral team and the leaders of the church,

00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:46.639
 the deacons,

00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:49.539
 have really felt like this is an essential matter.

00:02:50.339 --> 00:02:53.279
 And not just because it addresses purity,

00:02:53.519 --> 00:02:55.219
 sexual purity in that sense,

00:02:55.539 --> 00:02:59.099
 but because it addresses kind of the foundations of living,

00:02:59.099 --> 00:03:02.299
 the things that rule your heart,

00:03:03.099 --> 00:03:07.740
 and that will set the course of activity for your life.

00:03:08.579 --> 00:03:11.400
 And we find throughout the course of the Scripture,

00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:12.759
 Old and New Testament alike,

00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:15.699
 that the affections that we have,

00:03:16.060 --> 00:03:17.519
 the desires that you have,

00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:21.799
 those ruling desires and passions of your heart,

00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:25.660
 is what's going to lead you to certain habits and patterns

00:03:25.660 --> 00:03:30.200
 that may either lead to disaster in ruin for you,

00:03:30.760 --> 00:03:32.580
 or will lead to life for you.

00:03:33.620 --> 00:03:35.939
 And so this is the tipping point.

00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:38.920
 This subject that we're talking about

00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:43.840
 is really the essence of what God has called us to consider.

00:03:44.540 --> 00:03:48.280
 That we think about the first and second great commands.

00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:50.180
 What is that first and greatest command?

00:03:50.379 --> 00:03:50.840
 To do what?

00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:53.280
 To love the Lord your God.

00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:54.400
 With all your what?

00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:57.979
 Heart, soul, mind, and strength.

00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:01.759
 If we want to worship God,

00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:04.439
 and God has made us worshipers,

00:04:05.020 --> 00:04:06.539
 and that's what we're going to kind of understand

00:04:06.539 --> 00:04:09.300
 as we're working through this time together,

00:04:09.580 --> 00:04:11.960
 if we're going to worship God truly,

00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:14.960
 you have to worship God with your heart.

00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:20.300
 You have to know what that kind of worship looks like.

00:04:21.660 --> 00:04:23.720
 And so cultivating good heart patterns,

00:04:24.420 --> 00:04:27.019
 cultivating good desires, good passions,

00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:30.160
 are going to set the course for life for you.

00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:34.960
 Whether you're going to live in jeopardy of spirituality,

00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:39.220
 ruin, potential ruin, of your spiritual life,

00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:40.519
 shipwreck, as it were,

00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:44.599
 or you're going to enjoy the safety and security

00:04:44.599 --> 00:04:47.419
 and life that God has called us to.

00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:50.079
 And it starts with our heart.

00:04:50.180 --> 00:04:52.079
 It starts with our passions.

00:04:53.419 --> 00:04:55.099
 We think about the word passion.

00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.240
 What are some other words that come to mind?

00:04:59.299 --> 00:05:02.399
 What do you think of when you think of the word passion?

00:05:05.899 --> 00:05:06.339
 Desires.

00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:07.379
 Okay, that's a good word.

00:05:07.379 --> 00:05:08.060
 Desires.

00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:10.759
 Fundamentally, what you want, what you desire.

00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:13.719
 Any other words that come to mind when you think of passion?

00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:15.439
 What's that?

00:05:17.159 --> 00:05:17.519
 Mastery.

00:05:17.719 --> 00:05:18.740
 Now, that's an interesting word.

00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:20.159
 Why did you think about mastery?

00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:25.719
 Ah, fantastic.

00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:26.659
 I love that.

00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:28.620
 And that's not what I was thinking,

00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:31.920
 but that hits the nail on the head.

00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:34.759
 When you have a passion for something,

00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:36.300
 you want to master it.

00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:37.599
 You want to do your best at it.

00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:39.560
 You put all your effort into it.

00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:40.360
 Phenomenal.

00:05:40.899 --> 00:05:43.279
 What else do you think of when you think of passion?

00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:45.439
 Intensity.

00:05:45.699 --> 00:05:45.819
 Okay.

00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:47.199
 There's an intensity.

00:05:47.719 --> 00:05:48.659
 There's a zeal.

00:05:48.819 --> 00:05:52.639
 There's an interest, a desire of your heart to pursue something.

00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:53.620
 Good.

00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:54.480
 Any other words?

00:05:54.500 --> 00:05:55.120
 Those are tremendous.

00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:56.699
 Any other words that come to your mind?

00:05:57.659 --> 00:05:58.060
 Love.

00:05:58.139 --> 00:05:58.360
 Okay.

00:05:58.699 --> 00:05:59.819
 Love and desire.

00:05:59.819 --> 00:06:04.379
 That what we are passionate about

00:06:04.379 --> 00:06:07.139
 helps us understand what you love.

00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:09.240
 And fundamentally,

00:06:09.659 --> 00:06:11.899
 what we're going to look at in just a moment here

00:06:11.899 --> 00:06:13.740
 is what you desire,

00:06:14.899 --> 00:06:16.159
 how you feel,

00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:19.100
 what your emotions are telling you

00:06:19.100 --> 00:06:22.120
 really are like the little gauges

00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.079
 on the panel of your car

00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:27.359
 that I always ignore

00:06:27.359 --> 00:06:28.599
 because they're always on.

00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:34.539
 But those light indicators on your car

00:06:34.539 --> 00:06:36.060
 are like your emotions.

00:06:37.139 --> 00:06:41.199
 Now, emotions aren't necessarily good or bad.

00:06:41.459 --> 00:06:41.579
 Okay.

00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:46.199
 That even what we would consider negative emotions,

00:06:46.899 --> 00:06:48.439
 anger, frustration,

00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:49.879
 discouragement,

00:06:50.500 --> 00:06:52.000
 and despair,

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:53.379
 whatever you want to fill in.

00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:57.579
 Even those quote-unquote negative emotions

00:06:57.579 --> 00:06:59.680
 can lead you

00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.240
 and are meant to lead you

00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:02.399
 to God.

00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:04.740
 They're meant to lead you to worship.

00:07:05.939 --> 00:07:07.439
 Emotions can be good.

00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:09.360
 But the problem is

00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:10.600
 is when those emotions

00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:13.100
 become controlling emotions,

00:07:13.980 --> 00:07:15.860
 when they become the kinds of emotions

00:07:15.860 --> 00:07:17.740
 that you might find yourself saying,

00:07:17.860 --> 00:07:20.060
 well, I just can't control myself.

00:07:20.139 --> 00:07:21.620
 Ever heard yourself say that?

00:07:21.620 --> 00:07:23.360
 I just can't control myself.

00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:25.139
 And so,

00:07:25.459 --> 00:07:26.500
 as we think about

00:07:26.500 --> 00:07:28.600
 passions of the heart,

00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:32.379
 the reason why we've chosen this study

00:07:32.379 --> 00:07:33.879
 is because we recognize

00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:34.800
 the significance

00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.160
 of those passions in your life

00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:40.100
 that are going to lead you to something.

00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:41.240
 They're going to set the course

00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:42.720
 for the way you live,

00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:44.699
 either for good or for bad.

00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:46.379
 And we also understand

00:07:46.379 --> 00:07:47.480
 that our culture,

00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:49.000
 our culture,

00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:50.560
 our culture wants to tune in

00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:51.720
 to your emotions.

00:07:52.780 --> 00:07:55.040
 They want to access your emotions

00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:57.120
 and they want to drive them somewhere.

00:07:58.100 --> 00:08:00.980
 They want to help you use those emotions

00:08:00.980 --> 00:08:02.720
 in a way that are destructive

00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.360
 and not life-giving.

00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:07.060
 One such example,

00:08:07.300 --> 00:08:09.220
 a popular song

00:08:09.220 --> 00:08:11.240
 that's written in the last couple of years,

00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:12.720
 written by Teddy Swims.

00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:14.300
 Anyone know who Teddy Swims is?

00:08:15.080 --> 00:08:17.300
 I did not know who Teddy Swims was

00:08:17.300 --> 00:08:18.740
 and I didn't even know

00:08:18.740 --> 00:08:21.240
 what this song was by its title,

00:08:21.540 --> 00:08:22.540
 but I am sure

00:08:22.540 --> 00:08:23.820
 that every single one of you

00:08:23.820 --> 00:08:25.400
 have heard this song.

00:08:25.460 --> 00:08:26.840
 It's called Lose Control.

00:08:27.700 --> 00:08:28.560
 It was a song

00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:31.000
 that was released in June of 2023

00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:34.340
 and the song reached number one

00:08:34.340 --> 00:08:37.059
 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart

00:08:37.059 --> 00:08:38.600
 in March of 2024.

00:08:39.700 --> 00:08:41.320
 And it holds the record

00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:43.559
 for the longest charting song

00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.320
 on the Billboard Hot 100

00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:50.019
 with 112 non-consecutive weeks.

00:08:50.460 --> 00:08:51.700
 112 weeks.

00:08:52.700 --> 00:08:54.860
 That's over two years

00:08:54.860 --> 00:08:56.759
 it was on this list, okay?

00:08:57.100 --> 00:08:58.720
 That's how popular this song is.

00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.300
 That's how much this song

00:09:02.300 --> 00:09:04.100
 engaged culture, okay?

00:09:04.980 --> 00:09:06.080
 And it was in the,

00:09:06.700 --> 00:09:07.300
 on this,

00:09:07.800 --> 00:09:09.660
 it was a top 10 song

00:09:09.660 --> 00:09:11.480
 for 80 weeks.

00:09:12.180 --> 00:09:12.840
 80 weeks.

00:09:13.899 --> 00:09:14.540
 Well, let me just,

00:09:14.660 --> 00:09:16.800
 I'm just gonna read a couple of the,

00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:18.320
 not the choruses,

00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:19.740
 but the refrains, okay?

00:09:20.300 --> 00:09:21.340
 And there's,

00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:23.480
 I'm gonna leave out certain parts,

00:09:23.660 --> 00:09:26.060
 but here's kind of a sense of this song.

00:09:26.180 --> 00:09:26.700
 It says this,

00:09:26.700 --> 00:09:29.720
 something's got a hold on me lately.

00:09:30.660 --> 00:09:32.460
 No, I don't know myself anymore.

00:09:33.520 --> 00:09:35.720
 Feels like the walls are closing in

00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:38.100
 and the devil's knocking at my door.

00:09:38.520 --> 00:09:38.780
 Whoa.

00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:40.780
 Out of my mind,

00:09:40.920 --> 00:09:41.900
 how many times

00:09:41.900 --> 00:09:43.060
 did I tell you

00:09:43.060 --> 00:09:44.660
 I'm no good at being alone?

00:09:45.540 --> 00:09:47.640
 Yeah, it's taken a toll on me,

00:09:48.040 --> 00:09:49.160
 trying my best to keep

00:09:49.160 --> 00:09:52.020
 from tearing the skin off my bones,

00:09:52.259 --> 00:09:52.780
 don't you know?

00:09:52.779 --> 00:09:54.799
 And then it says,

00:09:55.819 --> 00:09:56.019
 I,

00:09:56.459 --> 00:09:56.740
 something,

00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:57.220
 I,

00:09:58.019 --> 00:09:58.759
 what's that?

00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:01.419
 I lose control.

00:10:01.539 --> 00:10:02.000
 Something's,

00:10:02.120 --> 00:10:03.620
 I don't lose control.

00:10:04.179 --> 00:10:04.399
 Okay?

00:10:04.500 --> 00:10:06.379
 That's the whole tenor of this song.

00:10:06.939 --> 00:10:07.980
 And so,

00:10:08.620 --> 00:10:08.779
 you know,

00:10:08.819 --> 00:10:10.439
 I trust it's obvious, okay?

00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:11.379
 This is not a song

00:10:11.379 --> 00:10:13.720
 we're encouraging you to listen to necessarily,

00:10:13.819 --> 00:10:15.500
 but it's just a song that's popular

00:10:15.500 --> 00:10:17.000
 and it explains,

00:10:17.460 --> 00:10:18.620
 it really explains

00:10:18.620 --> 00:10:19.259
 kind of the,

00:10:19.340 --> 00:10:20.320
 the heart

00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:22.240
 of our culture today.

00:10:22.899 --> 00:10:23.940
 And that is

00:10:23.940 --> 00:10:24.799
 that

00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:26.559
 this core idea

00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:27.580
 is that the feelings

00:10:27.580 --> 00:10:29.480
 don't just inform

00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:30.340
 the way you live,

00:10:31.139 --> 00:10:33.159
 your feelings drive,

00:10:33.539 --> 00:10:35.320
 fundamentally drive

00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:36.039
 the way you live.

00:10:36.899 --> 00:10:38.320
 Your feelings control you,

00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:38.980
 at least

00:10:38.980 --> 00:10:41.000
 from a cultural perspective.

00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:42.559
 Your feelings

00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:43.179
 will,

00:10:43.179 --> 00:10:44.480
 will take you up,

00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:46.639
 will capture you

00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:47.840
 and pull you along.

00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:48.580
 And,

00:10:48.620 --> 00:10:49.340
 and we've learned

00:10:49.340 --> 00:10:50.100
 in culture

00:10:50.100 --> 00:10:50.899
 that,

00:10:51.019 --> 00:10:52.560
 that that's not just okay,

00:10:52.940 --> 00:10:54.019
 that's just expected.

00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:55.860
 That's what we expect

00:10:55.860 --> 00:10:56.460
 to happen.

00:10:57.659 --> 00:10:58.180
 And so,

00:10:58.360 --> 00:10:58.440
 our,

00:10:58.920 --> 00:11:00.440
 in our culture today,

00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:01.840
 your feelings

00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:03.139
 aren't just something

00:11:03.139 --> 00:11:04.019
 that,

00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:05.399
 that drive you,

00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:06.700
 your feelings now become

00:11:06.700 --> 00:11:07.379
 your identity.

00:11:08.500 --> 00:11:09.120
 And so,

00:11:09.500 --> 00:11:10.879
 how you feel

00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:11.460
 then

00:11:11.460 --> 00:11:12.159
 becomes

00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:12.980
 who you are.

00:11:12.980 --> 00:11:15.000
 and that's,

00:11:15.100 --> 00:11:16.600
 that's the message

00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:17.279
 of our culture.

00:11:18.060 --> 00:11:18.899
 How many times

00:11:18.899 --> 00:11:19.440
 have you heard,

00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:20.200
 heard it said,

00:11:20.259 --> 00:11:20.779
 or maybe even

00:11:20.779 --> 00:11:21.720
 have said yourself,

00:11:22.420 --> 00:11:24.000
 I can't help myself.

00:11:25.259 --> 00:11:26.720
 I had no choice

00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:27.340
 in the matter.

00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:28.899
 It just happened.

00:11:29.019 --> 00:11:30.100
 I couldn't stop it.

00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:32.320
 That's just how it is.

00:11:32.740 --> 00:11:33.340
 Ever said that?

00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:34.800
 Or,

00:11:34.860 --> 00:11:36.460
 or this identity language

00:11:36.460 --> 00:11:37.000
 that says,

00:11:37.100 --> 00:11:37.240
 well,

00:11:37.300 --> 00:11:37.980
 this is just

00:11:37.980 --> 00:11:38.800
 who I am.

00:11:39.379 --> 00:11:40.259
 That's just

00:11:40.259 --> 00:11:41.139
 my personality.

00:11:41.139 --> 00:11:42.600
 I'm just being honest.

00:11:43.100 --> 00:11:43.799
 Ever heard that?

00:11:43.899 --> 00:11:45.240
 I'm just being honest.

00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:46.799
 This is who I am.

00:11:47.740 --> 00:11:48.100
 Or,

00:11:48.139 --> 00:11:48.679
 or how about

00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:50.340
 the permissive language

00:11:50.340 --> 00:11:50.980
 that says,

00:11:51.199 --> 00:11:52.600
 I deserve this.

00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:54.340
 After all,

00:11:54.439 --> 00:11:54.799
 it's,

00:11:54.899 --> 00:11:55.759
 it's what I've been through.

00:11:55.860 --> 00:11:56.000
 So,

00:11:56.059 --> 00:11:57.519
 I'm allowed to feel this way.

00:11:57.779 --> 00:11:59.319
 I'm allowed to respond this way.

00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:00.960
 Or,

00:12:01.059 --> 00:12:01.799
 don't judge me.

00:12:02.939 --> 00:12:03.379
 Or,

00:12:03.740 --> 00:12:04.580
 it's not really

00:12:04.580 --> 00:12:05.460
 that big of a deal.

00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:05.819
 Come on.

00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:06.740
 Let it go.

00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:08.340
 Give,

00:12:08.419 --> 00:12:09.200
 give me some space.

00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:10.500
 Or,

00:12:10.500 --> 00:12:10.960
 or maybe this

00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:12.140
 blame shifting language

00:12:12.140 --> 00:12:12.680
 that says,

00:12:13.040 --> 00:12:14.300
 it's actually

00:12:14.300 --> 00:12:15.379
 your fault

00:12:15.379 --> 00:12:16.960
 because you made me

00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:17.600
 feel this way.

00:12:19.220 --> 00:12:19.820
 Or,

00:12:20.140 --> 00:12:21.860
 if you hadn't said that

00:12:21.860 --> 00:12:23.480
 or done that,

00:12:23.780 --> 00:12:24.400
 I would never

00:12:24.400 --> 00:12:25.200
 have reacted this way.

00:12:26.140 --> 00:12:26.740
 Or,

00:12:27.500 --> 00:12:28.420
 you're the reason

00:12:28.420 --> 00:12:29.280
 I'm like this.

00:12:30.160 --> 00:12:30.480
 Or,

00:12:30.700 --> 00:12:31.480
 it's your fault

00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:32.400
 that I'm upset.

00:12:33.379 --> 00:12:33.720
 Or,

00:12:34.680 --> 00:12:35.720
 it's the woman

00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:36.420
 you made.

00:12:36.420 --> 00:12:36.820
 Or,

00:12:36.820 --> 00:12:39.180
 it's the serpent.

00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:40.080
 that you put in the garden.

00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:42.240
 It's the age old problem

00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:43.820
 where we explain away

00:12:43.820 --> 00:12:45.520
 our responses

00:12:45.520 --> 00:12:46.280
 based upon

00:12:46.280 --> 00:12:47.220
 the way we feel.

00:12:48.400 --> 00:12:48.600
 Or,

00:12:48.700 --> 00:12:50.120
 this avoidance language.

00:12:50.800 --> 00:12:52.060
 I just need some space.

00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:54.340
 I can't talk about this right now.

00:12:54.379 --> 00:12:55.060
 Just leave me alone.

00:12:56.540 --> 00:12:56.980
 Or,

00:12:57.080 --> 00:12:57.480
 justification

00:12:57.480 --> 00:12:59.460
 in having the moral high ground

00:12:59.460 --> 00:12:59.900
 that says,

00:13:00.160 --> 00:13:02.259
 I'm only standing up for myself.

00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:03.700
 I,

00:13:03.700 --> 00:13:04.840
 I don't feel safe.

00:13:05.220 --> 00:13:05.460
 And so,

00:13:05.460 --> 00:13:06.700
 because I don't feel safe,

00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:08.580
 that I'm acting this way.

00:13:08.620 --> 00:13:09.360
 I'm just protecting

00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:10.300
 myself.

00:13:10.580 --> 00:13:11.040
 I'm setting

00:13:11.040 --> 00:13:12.060
 my boundaries.

00:13:12.180 --> 00:13:12.940
 I have every right

00:13:12.940 --> 00:13:13.740
 to do this.

00:13:14.740 --> 00:13:15.100
 Or,

00:13:15.140 --> 00:13:16.440
 the kind of minimizing language

00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:16.860
 that says,

00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:17.560
 come on,

00:13:17.740 --> 00:13:18.780
 you're overreacting.

00:13:19.640 --> 00:13:19.900
 Or,

00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:20.940
 it's not a big deal.

00:13:21.040 --> 00:13:21.220
 Or,

00:13:21.560 --> 00:13:23.300
 I was just joking.

00:13:23.820 --> 00:13:24.440
 Come on.

00:13:24.780 --> 00:13:25.600
 Give me a break.

00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:28.340
 I didn't mean it like that.

00:13:28.400 --> 00:13:28.879
 All of this,

00:13:29.020 --> 00:13:29.700
 these words

00:13:29.700 --> 00:13:31.100
 that we use

00:13:31.100 --> 00:13:32.920
 to explain away

00:13:32.920 --> 00:13:34.379
 or justify

00:13:34.379 --> 00:13:36.279
 the way our feelings

00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:37.560
 have driven us

00:13:37.560 --> 00:13:38.480
 to act.

00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:40.420
 And so,

00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:42.820
 we create this space

00:13:42.820 --> 00:13:44.139
 for ourselves

00:13:44.139 --> 00:13:46.259
 to act a certain way

00:13:46.259 --> 00:13:47.940
 because of how we feel.

00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:49.480
 And that everyone needs

00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:50.300
 to kind of clear

00:13:50.300 --> 00:13:51.600
 the boundaries,

00:13:51.860 --> 00:13:53.180
 clear the space for us

00:13:53.180 --> 00:13:54.720
 because we feel this way

00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:56.800
 and the way we feel now

00:13:56.800 --> 00:13:58.240
 has set this,

00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.279
 this identity for us

00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:01.519
 that gives us

00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:02.580
 the room,

00:14:02.700 --> 00:14:03.220
 the justification

00:14:03.220 --> 00:14:04.600
 to do whatever we want,

00:14:04.659 --> 00:14:05.539
 whatever we feel.

00:14:07.560 --> 00:14:08.200
 So,

00:14:08.299 --> 00:14:09.320
 one of the biggest lies

00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:10.080
 in our world

00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:11.220
 is that

00:14:11.220 --> 00:14:12.399
 our feelings

00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:13.620
 are the truest things

00:14:13.620 --> 00:14:14.320
 about ourselves.

00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.639
 And that

00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:18.740
 when our emotions

00:14:18.740 --> 00:14:20.519
 like losing control

00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:21.539
 are happening,

00:14:22.060 --> 00:14:23.259
 it's just expected.

00:14:24.299 --> 00:14:25.320
 You should just expect it.

00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:26.600
 Give me some room.

00:14:26.700 --> 00:14:27.419
 Give me a break.

00:14:27.419 --> 00:14:28.899
 This is how it goes.

00:14:28.959 --> 00:14:29.719
 Don't you understand?

00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:32.379
 And even going back

00:14:32.379 --> 00:14:34.379
 to the 1800s,

00:14:34.419 --> 00:14:35.219
 this has kind of been

00:14:35.219 --> 00:14:37.240
 the way that our culture

00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:38.860
 has begun to feel.

00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:39.599
 Those of you

00:14:39.599 --> 00:14:40.919
 who have taken

00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:43.599
 like literature,

00:14:44.139 --> 00:14:44.860
 English literature,

00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:46.419
 will know the name

00:14:46.979 --> 00:14:48.179
 Ralph Waldo Emerson.

00:14:48.819 --> 00:14:50.240
 And he wrote

00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:51.480
 Self-Reliance.

00:14:52.139 --> 00:14:54.240
 And the governing line

00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:55.779
 of that entire poem

00:14:55.779 --> 00:14:56.179
 is this,

00:14:56.179 --> 00:14:58.039
 Trust thyself,

00:14:58.379 --> 00:14:59.279
 never imitate.

00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:01.659
 Trust yourself.

00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:03.599
 Your emotions,

00:15:04.479 --> 00:15:05.279
 your convictions,

00:15:05.959 --> 00:15:06.719
 your identity,

00:15:07.139 --> 00:15:07.979
 it's all that matters.

00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:09.739
 Trust yourself.

00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:11.199
 Don't imitate.

00:15:12.559 --> 00:15:14.500
 Allow your life

00:15:14.500 --> 00:15:15.579
 to be ruled

00:15:15.579 --> 00:15:17.039
 by your emotions,

00:15:17.159 --> 00:15:17.839
 how you feel,

00:15:18.179 --> 00:15:18.819
 what you think,

00:15:19.179 --> 00:15:19.859
 what you believe.

00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:21.820
 And if we're honest

00:15:21.820 --> 00:15:22.680
 with ourselves,

00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:24.700
 we've all been influenced

00:15:24.700 --> 00:15:26.019
 to think that way.

00:15:26.220 --> 00:15:27.379
 We've all been conditioned

00:15:27.379 --> 00:15:28.320
 to believe

00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:30.180
 that how we feel,

00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:32.159
 what our passions are,

00:15:32.539 --> 00:15:33.340
 give us now

00:15:33.340 --> 00:15:33.919
 the room

00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:34.519
 to do whatever

00:15:34.519 --> 00:15:35.060
 we want to do.

00:15:35.340 --> 00:15:36.019
 And that's why

00:15:36.019 --> 00:15:37.220
 this is so important.

00:15:37.980 --> 00:15:38.279
 That's why

00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:39.180
 when we look at

00:15:39.180 --> 00:15:40.399
 the passions of the heart,

00:15:40.560 --> 00:15:41.200
 we can understand

00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:41.879
 it doesn't just

00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:43.960
 relate to sexual purity.

00:15:44.460 --> 00:15:45.080
 And there's going to be

00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:46.159
 a lot of times

00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:47.019
 where we're going to try

00:15:47.019 --> 00:15:47.759
 to address that

00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:48.639
 just generally

00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:50.120
 but very carefully

00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:51.620
 in this mixed audience.

00:15:52.199 --> 00:15:53.579
 But I want you to understand

00:15:53.579 --> 00:15:55.319
 that this is transcendent.

00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:57.659
 That what you believe

00:15:57.659 --> 00:15:58.860
 and what you feel

00:15:58.860 --> 00:16:00.399
 are essential

00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:03.199
 to how you live.

00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:05.620
 And especially

00:16:05.620 --> 00:16:06.899
 how you worship.

00:16:07.899 --> 00:16:09.759
 Because what you feel

00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:11.100
 is an indication

00:16:11.100 --> 00:16:13.539
 not only of what you believe

00:16:13.539 --> 00:16:14.759
 but what you value.

00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:16.799
 What you think is important.

00:16:17.939 --> 00:16:18.699
 And so

00:16:18.699 --> 00:16:20.419
 those indicator lights

00:16:20.419 --> 00:16:21.480
 when I'm angry,

00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:22.960
 when I'm frustrated,

00:16:23.299 --> 00:16:24.600
 even when I'm happy,

00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:26.000
 when I'm excited

00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:26.860
 about something,

00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:28.019
 what am I excited about

00:16:28.019 --> 00:16:28.960
 and how does that point

00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:30.419
 and direct my heart

00:16:30.419 --> 00:16:31.100
 to see

00:16:31.100 --> 00:16:33.079
 what am I really worshipping?

00:16:33.199 --> 00:16:34.919
 What do I really value?

00:16:35.460 --> 00:16:36.779
 What do I really want

00:16:36.779 --> 00:16:37.720
 in my life?

00:16:39.199 --> 00:16:40.100
 And so right at the outset

00:16:40.100 --> 00:16:40.919
 what I'd like to do

00:16:40.919 --> 00:16:41.779
 I want to just encourage

00:16:41.779 --> 00:16:42.840
 go ahead and open up

00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:43.240
 your little

00:16:43.240 --> 00:16:44.299
 your guides.

00:16:44.620 --> 00:16:44.779
 Okay.

00:16:45.079 --> 00:16:45.980
 And I want you to take

00:16:45.980 --> 00:16:46.840
 a little personal

00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:48.259
 self-inventory.

00:16:48.580 --> 00:16:48.759
 Okay.

00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:50.360
 And I say personal

00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:51.460
 because

00:16:51.460 --> 00:16:54.159
 I just want to encourage

00:16:54.159 --> 00:16:55.240
 you to keep this private.

00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:56.399
 Just between you

00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:56.940
 and the Lord

00:16:56.940 --> 00:16:58.800
 and as you're answering

00:16:58.800 --> 00:16:59.980
 these questions

00:16:59.980 --> 00:17:01.899
 I want you to be honest.

00:17:02.259 --> 00:17:03.440
 Honest with yourself

00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:04.559
 before the Lord

00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:06.099
 as you kind of

00:17:06.099 --> 00:17:07.259
 gauge

00:17:07.259 --> 00:17:08.599
 and examine

00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:10.440
 your emotions

00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:11.460
 and how much

00:17:11.460 --> 00:17:12.220
 your emotions

00:17:12.220 --> 00:17:14.259
 drive the way you act.

00:17:14.259 --> 00:17:14.599
 Okay.

00:17:14.740 --> 00:17:15.500
 So we're going to spend

00:17:15.500 --> 00:17:15.879
 the next

00:17:15.879 --> 00:17:17.779
 five, ten minutes

00:17:17.779 --> 00:17:19.420
 I want you to

00:17:19.420 --> 00:17:20.240
 take out a pen

00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:21.200
 if you don't have one

00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:22.099
 we can get you one

00:17:22.099 --> 00:17:24.259
 and do this self-inventory

00:17:24.259 --> 00:17:26.059
 just to help drive home

00:17:26.059 --> 00:17:26.500
 the point

00:17:26.500 --> 00:17:27.920
 of how emotions

00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:28.900
 have

00:17:28.900 --> 00:17:30.039
 kind of

00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:31.039
 driven the way

00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:31.859
 that we act.

00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:33.059
 So take your time

00:17:33.059 --> 00:17:33.980
 and go ahead

00:17:33.980 --> 00:17:34.680
 and do that right now.

00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:40.360
 If you need

00:17:40.360 --> 00:17:41.480
 one of those

00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:42.519
 workbooks

00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:43.700
 we can get you one

00:17:43.700 --> 00:17:45.420
 just raise up your hand

00:17:45.420 --> 00:17:46.220
 and we'll make sure

00:17:46.220 --> 00:17:46.660
 you get one.

00:17:46.660 --> 00:18:16.640
 I want you to

00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:46.620
 one of those

00:18:46.619 --> 00:19:16.599
 one of those

00:19:16.619 --> 00:19:46.599
 two of those

00:19:46.599 --> 00:20:16.579
 one of those

00:20:16.579 --> 00:20:46.559
 one of those

00:20:46.559 --> 00:21:08.159
 all right

00:21:08.159 --> 00:21:08.700
 just another

00:21:08.700 --> 00:21:09.619
 minute or two

00:21:09.619 --> 00:21:11.359
 when you're done

00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:12.099
 you can just go ahead

00:21:12.099 --> 00:21:12.779
 and look up at me.

00:21:12.779 --> 00:21:42.759
 and look at me.

00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:43.940
 all right

00:21:43.940 --> 00:21:44.759
 we almost done?

00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:49.240
 A few more seconds.

00:21:55.079 --> 00:21:55.559
 Okay.

00:21:56.379 --> 00:21:57.400
 What did you learn?

00:21:57.539 --> 00:21:57.940
 What did you learn

00:21:57.940 --> 00:21:58.539
 about yourself?

00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:02.119
 What did you learn

00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:02.539
 about yourself?

00:22:02.700 --> 00:22:03.740
 Maybe this is

00:22:03.740 --> 00:22:04.519
 an easier question.

00:22:04.519 --> 00:22:08.920
 of the little

00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:08.920


00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:08.920


00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:11.799
 pieces in this

00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:12.599
 inventory

00:22:12.599 --> 00:22:13.420
 which

00:22:13.420 --> 00:22:14.839
 which of those

00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:15.599
 questions

00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:16.859
 grabbed your attention

00:22:16.859 --> 00:22:17.400
 the most?

00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:18.400
 one?

00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:24.400
 Any of those?

00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:25.040
 Okay.

00:22:25.040 --> 00:22:25.400
 Okay.

00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:25.640
 Okay.

00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:31.380
 My identity is found by my emotions.

00:22:31.380 --> 00:22:32.740
 Yeah.

00:22:32.740 --> 00:22:32.840
 Yeah.

00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:37.420
 Yeah, right.

00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:38.380
 So, you know,

00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:39.860
 you're working through this

00:22:39.860 --> 00:22:40.759
 initially like

00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:42.519
 I don't find my identity

00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:43.259
 in my

00:22:43.259 --> 00:22:44.440
 in my desires

00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:45.640
 but then you're like

00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:46.099
 well then

00:22:46.099 --> 00:22:47.039
 you come to anger

00:22:47.039 --> 00:22:48.460
 and you come to fear

00:22:48.460 --> 00:22:49.960
 and you come to anxiety

00:22:49.960 --> 00:22:51.240
 and you come to pressure

00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:51.859
 and you're like

00:22:51.859 --> 00:22:53.079
 ah, well then

00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:54.740
 maybe I'm actually

00:22:54.740 --> 00:22:55.839
 a little bit more driven

00:22:55.839 --> 00:22:57.379
 by my emotions

00:22:57.379 --> 00:22:58.279
 than I think I am.

00:22:58.279 --> 00:22:58.839
 Right?

00:22:59.779 --> 00:23:00.460
 That's true.

00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:00.900
 Good.

00:23:01.160 --> 00:23:01.839
 I appreciate that.

00:23:01.839 --> 00:23:02.919
 And by the way

00:23:02.919 --> 00:23:05.119
 this was

00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:05.959
 this was pretty

00:23:05.959 --> 00:23:07.299
 pretty convicting

00:23:07.299 --> 00:23:07.939
 for me too.

00:23:09.279 --> 00:23:10.539
 When we think about

00:23:10.539 --> 00:23:11.379
 emotions

00:23:11.379 --> 00:23:12.459
 or we think about

00:23:12.459 --> 00:23:13.179
 passions

00:23:13.179 --> 00:23:14.359
 we generally

00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:15.299
 tend to think about

00:23:15.299 --> 00:23:16.439
 those passions

00:23:16.439 --> 00:23:17.259
 that lead us to

00:23:17.259 --> 00:23:18.299
 sexual

00:23:18.299 --> 00:23:19.579
 problems.

00:23:19.959 --> 00:23:20.059
 Okay.

00:23:20.539 --> 00:23:20.959
 But

00:23:20.959 --> 00:23:22.279
 we

00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:23.399
 we understand

00:23:23.399 --> 00:23:24.119
 that

00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:25.079
 feelings

00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:26.459
 and emotions

00:23:26.459 --> 00:23:27.759
 and passions

00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:28.779
 are much broader

00:23:28.779 --> 00:23:29.379
 than that.

00:23:29.779 --> 00:23:29.959
 Right?

00:23:30.619 --> 00:23:31.439
 Any other

00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:32.000
 of the

00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:32.299
 of the

00:23:32.299 --> 00:23:32.640
 questions

00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:33.240
 that kind of

00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:33.640
 grabbed your

00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:34.019
 attention?

00:23:37.460 --> 00:23:38.180
 Anyone else

00:23:38.180 --> 00:23:38.880
 want to be honest?

00:23:40.580 --> 00:23:41.120
 Good.

00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:43.160
 How about

00:23:43.160 --> 00:23:43.580
 this one?

00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:43.940
 This is

00:23:43.940 --> 00:23:44.500
 this is

00:23:44.500 --> 00:23:46.120
 one that

00:23:46.120 --> 00:23:46.759
 that

00:23:46.759 --> 00:23:47.700
 resonated in my

00:23:47.700 --> 00:23:47.940
 heart.

00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:49.320
 Work pressures

00:23:49.320 --> 00:23:50.180
 increase my

00:23:50.180 --> 00:23:50.759
 anger or

00:23:50.759 --> 00:23:51.340
 irritability.

00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:52.720
 Now

00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:53.559
 my wife can

00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:54.380
 attest to that

00:23:54.380 --> 00:23:54.920
 and hopefully

00:23:54.920 --> 00:23:55.720
 you don't see

00:23:55.720 --> 00:23:56.519
 that very much

00:23:56.519 --> 00:23:57.460
 but she does.

00:23:58.480 --> 00:23:58.779
 Okay.

00:24:00.700 --> 00:24:01.220
 When

00:24:01.220 --> 00:24:02.600
 when pressure

00:24:02.600 --> 00:24:03.500
 and doesn't

00:24:03.500 --> 00:24:03.900
 necessarily have

00:24:03.900 --> 00:24:04.319
 to be work

00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:04.740
 pressure

00:24:04.740 --> 00:24:06.180
 when family

00:24:06.180 --> 00:24:06.740
 pressure

00:24:06.740 --> 00:24:07.600
 work

00:24:07.600 --> 00:24:08.140
 pressure

00:24:08.140 --> 00:24:09.259
 financial

00:24:09.259 --> 00:24:09.839
 pressure

00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:10.660
 health

00:24:10.660 --> 00:24:11.200
 pressure

00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:12.019
 whatever that

00:24:12.019 --> 00:24:12.740
 pressure is

00:24:12.740 --> 00:24:13.600
 when it comes

00:24:13.600 --> 00:24:14.720
 pressing down

00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:15.980
 then the

00:24:15.980 --> 00:24:16.660
 then the real

00:24:16.660 --> 00:24:17.220
 me tends

00:24:17.220 --> 00:24:17.460
 to

00:24:17.460 --> 00:24:18.480
 to show up.

00:24:19.740 --> 00:24:20.000
 This

00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:22.120
 what is it

00:24:22.120 --> 00:24:22.559
 about

00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:23.680
 me

00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:24.740
 that is so

00:24:24.740 --> 00:24:26.460
 small

00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:27.240
 in faith

00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:28.100
 I

00:24:28.100 --> 00:24:28.279
 I

00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:28.340
 I

00:24:28.340 --> 00:24:28.579
 I

00:24:28.579 --> 00:24:28.840
 I

00:24:28.840 --> 00:24:29.259
 see

00:24:29.259 --> 00:24:30.079
 my

00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:30.740
 flaws

00:24:30.740 --> 00:24:32.279
 so much

00:24:32.279 --> 00:24:32.819
 clearer

00:24:32.819 --> 00:24:34.140
 when

00:24:34.140 --> 00:24:34.980
 the pressure

00:24:34.980 --> 00:24:35.660
 mounts

00:24:35.660 --> 00:24:36.360
 and the

00:24:36.360 --> 00:24:37.140
 pressure cooker

00:24:37.140 --> 00:24:37.940
 is

00:24:37.940 --> 00:24:38.779
 is doing

00:24:38.779 --> 00:24:39.319
 its work

00:24:39.319 --> 00:24:40.400
 and I

00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:40.860
 see the

00:24:40.860 --> 00:24:41.299
 true me

00:24:41.299 --> 00:24:42.240
 and it's

00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:43.000
 not necessarily

00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:43.660
 a pretty me

00:24:43.660 --> 00:24:44.900
 and I imagine

00:24:44.900 --> 00:24:45.759
 the same is true

00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:46.600
 in your own life

00:24:46.600 --> 00:24:47.400
 as well.

00:24:48.140 --> 00:24:49.160
 You get to see

00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:49.920
 the real you

00:24:49.920 --> 00:24:50.960
 when things are hard

00:24:50.960 --> 00:24:52.319
 when the pressure

00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:53.400
 intensifies

00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:54.519
 and you

00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:54.960
 recognize

00:24:54.960 --> 00:24:55.560
 that

00:24:55.560 --> 00:24:55.759
 that

00:24:55.759 --> 00:24:55.780
 that

00:24:55.780 --> 00:24:56.400
 whatever

00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:57.700
 your escape

00:24:57.700 --> 00:24:58.800
 mechanism is

00:24:58.800 --> 00:24:59.780
 whether that's

00:24:59.780 --> 00:25:00.620
 to check out

00:25:00.620 --> 00:25:01.500
 and do nothing

00:25:01.500 --> 00:25:02.340
 whether that's

00:25:02.340 --> 00:25:03.000
 to tap into

00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:03.500
 leisure

00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:04.420
 or to tap

00:25:04.420 --> 00:25:05.120
 into friendships

00:25:05.120 --> 00:25:06.100
 or to

00:25:06.100 --> 00:25:06.740
 or to

00:25:06.740 --> 00:25:07.720
 to work

00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:08.259
 harder

00:25:08.259 --> 00:25:09.480
 or to strive

00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:09.900
 more

00:25:09.900 --> 00:25:10.840
 whatever that

00:25:10.840 --> 00:25:11.500
 whatever that

00:25:11.500 --> 00:25:12.380
 that release

00:25:12.380 --> 00:25:13.100
 or escape

00:25:13.100 --> 00:25:14.060
 mechanism is

00:25:14.060 --> 00:25:16.380
 that happens

00:25:16.380 --> 00:25:17.259
 as you

00:25:17.259 --> 00:25:17.920
 as the pressure

00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:18.300
 cooker

00:25:18.300 --> 00:25:19.360
 is

00:25:19.360 --> 00:25:20.560
 pressing in

00:25:20.560 --> 00:25:21.660
 it's cooking

00:25:21.660 --> 00:25:21.980
 hard

00:25:21.980 --> 00:25:23.500
 so what does

00:25:23.500 --> 00:25:23.880
 this say

00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:24.220
 about our

00:25:24.220 --> 00:25:24.420
 heart

00:25:24.420 --> 00:25:24.680
 and that's

00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:24.860
 kind of

00:25:24.860 --> 00:25:25.220
 this next

00:25:25.220 --> 00:25:25.539
 section

00:25:25.539 --> 00:25:25.860
 and I want

00:25:25.860 --> 00:25:26.000
 to

00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:26.559
 I'll just

00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:26.779
 kind of

00:25:26.779 --> 00:25:27.339
 walk through

00:25:27.339 --> 00:25:27.980
 this with

00:25:27.980 --> 00:25:28.259
 you

00:25:28.259 --> 00:25:29.740
 briefly

00:25:29.740 --> 00:25:30.860
 and I

00:25:30.860 --> 00:25:31.220
 we have

00:25:31.220 --> 00:25:31.519
 a little

00:25:31.519 --> 00:25:32.660
 section here

00:25:32.660 --> 00:25:33.339
 where you can

00:25:33.339 --> 00:25:34.000
 you can take

00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:34.559
 some notes

00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:35.160
 what do you

00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:35.779
 learn about

00:25:35.779 --> 00:25:36.240
 the heart

00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:36.759
 okay so

00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:37.120
 as we're

00:25:37.120 --> 00:25:37.620
 working through

00:25:37.620 --> 00:25:37.980
 this

00:25:37.980 --> 00:25:39.000
 just kind of

00:25:39.000 --> 00:25:39.420
 interacting

00:25:39.420 --> 00:25:39.799
 with one

00:25:39.799 --> 00:25:40.039
 another

00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:40.740
 over this

00:25:40.740 --> 00:25:41.620
 this would

00:25:41.620 --> 00:25:42.259
 be your

00:25:42.259 --> 00:25:42.720
 place to

00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:42.940
 kind of

00:25:42.940 --> 00:25:43.380
 take some

00:25:43.380 --> 00:25:43.599
 notes

00:25:43.599 --> 00:25:44.319
 for yourself

00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:45.539
 this personal

00:25:45.539 --> 00:25:46.360
 self inventory

00:25:46.360 --> 00:25:46.960
 that now

00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:47.579
 kind of leads

00:25:47.579 --> 00:25:47.900
 into

00:25:47.900 --> 00:25:48.539
 okay so

00:25:48.539 --> 00:25:48.900
 how does

00:25:48.900 --> 00:25:49.759
 God instruct

00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:50.180
 me

00:25:50.180 --> 00:25:51.240
 as I'm

00:25:51.240 --> 00:25:51.640
 becoming

00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:52.700
 very aware

00:25:52.700 --> 00:25:53.640
 of my

00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:54.240
 feelings

00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:54.620
 and my

00:25:54.620 --> 00:25:55.180
 emotions

00:25:55.180 --> 00:25:56.259
 now how

00:25:56.259 --> 00:25:56.680
 do I

00:25:56.680 --> 00:25:57.700
 examine

00:25:57.700 --> 00:25:58.620
 myself

00:25:58.620 --> 00:26:00.000
 or how do

00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:00.420
 I allow

00:26:00.420 --> 00:26:00.960
 the word

00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:01.480
 of God

00:26:01.480 --> 00:26:02.660
 to examine

00:26:02.660 --> 00:26:03.440
 my life

00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:03.900
 and provide

00:26:03.900 --> 00:26:04.640
 the road map

00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:05.140
 for me

00:26:05.140 --> 00:26:06.440
 on how I

00:26:06.440 --> 00:26:06.759
 should live

00:26:06.759 --> 00:26:07.420
 how I should

00:26:07.420 --> 00:26:07.900
 respond

00:26:07.900 --> 00:26:09.000
 and what's

00:26:09.000 --> 00:26:10.040
 normal

00:26:10.040 --> 00:26:12.640
 in the course

00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:13.080
 of a spiritual

00:26:13.080 --> 00:26:13.460
 life

00:26:13.460 --> 00:26:13.759
 okay

00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:15.080
 so

00:26:15.080 --> 00:26:16.060
 we find

00:26:16.060 --> 00:26:16.700
 some passages

00:26:16.700 --> 00:26:17.800
 and there's

00:26:17.800 --> 00:26:19.000
 more than we

00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:20.440
 can access

00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:20.900
 in our

00:26:20.900 --> 00:26:21.160
 time

00:26:21.160 --> 00:26:21.559
 together

00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:21.860
 but

00:26:21.860 --> 00:26:22.559
 some

00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:22.920
 key

00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:23.440
 passages

00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:23.920
 that help

00:26:23.920 --> 00:26:24.220
 to kind

00:26:24.220 --> 00:26:24.519
 of set

00:26:24.519 --> 00:26:25.019
 the course

00:26:25.019 --> 00:26:26.500
 for understanding

00:26:26.500 --> 00:26:27.019
 the heart

00:26:27.019 --> 00:26:28.400
 that the

00:26:28.400 --> 00:26:29.660
 issue of the

00:26:29.660 --> 00:26:30.420
 heart goes

00:26:30.420 --> 00:26:31.440
 all the way

00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:31.980
 back to

00:26:31.980 --> 00:26:32.340
 Genesis

00:26:32.340 --> 00:26:34.080
 and we see

00:26:34.080 --> 00:26:34.380
 this in

00:26:34.380 --> 00:26:34.920
 Genesis chapter

00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:35.440
 6

00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:36.480
 it says

00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:36.920
 the Lord

00:26:36.920 --> 00:26:37.860
 saw the

00:26:37.860 --> 00:26:38.400
 wickedness

00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:38.880
 of man

00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:39.620
 was great

00:26:39.620 --> 00:26:40.299
 in the

00:26:40.299 --> 00:26:40.680
 earth

00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:41.740
 and that

00:26:41.740 --> 00:26:42.340
 every

00:26:42.340 --> 00:26:43.080
 intention

00:26:43.080 --> 00:26:43.660
 of the

00:26:43.660 --> 00:26:44.000
 thought

00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:44.279
 of his

00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:44.600
 heart

00:26:44.600 --> 00:26:46.059
 was only

00:26:46.059 --> 00:26:47.119
 evil

00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:48.059
 continually

00:26:48.059 --> 00:26:50.980
 what do

00:26:50.980 --> 00:26:51.279
 we learn

00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:52.299
 about this

00:26:52.299 --> 00:26:53.700
 what does

00:26:53.700 --> 00:26:53.919
 this

00:26:53.919 --> 00:26:54.740
 what does

00:26:54.740 --> 00:26:55.039
 this say

00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:55.559
 about our

00:26:55.559 --> 00:26:56.539
 normal

00:26:56.539 --> 00:26:57.419
 human

00:26:57.419 --> 00:26:58.319
 condition

00:26:58.319 --> 00:26:59.419
 the condition

00:26:59.419 --> 00:27:00.019
 of our

00:27:00.019 --> 00:27:00.279
 heart

00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:00.899
 what is it

00:27:00.899 --> 00:27:01.539
 generally

00:27:01.539 --> 00:27:03.240
 what's that

00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:04.279
 it's only

00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:04.599
 evil

00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:05.179
 continually

00:27:05.179 --> 00:27:06.460
 okay

00:27:06.460 --> 00:27:07.940
 and how

00:27:07.940 --> 00:27:08.559
 deep

00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:09.240
 is the

00:27:09.240 --> 00:27:09.899
 problem

00:27:09.899 --> 00:27:11.379
 how does

00:27:11.379 --> 00:27:12.500
 how does

00:27:12.500 --> 00:27:12.919
 Moses

00:27:12.919 --> 00:27:13.500
 through

00:27:13.500 --> 00:27:14.279
 I think

00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:15.299
 of course

00:27:15.299 --> 00:27:16.299
 the Lord

00:27:16.299 --> 00:27:16.579
 is the

00:27:16.579 --> 00:27:16.759
 one

00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:17.180
 speaking

00:27:17.180 --> 00:27:17.460
 through

00:27:17.460 --> 00:27:17.759
 Moses

00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:18.180
 writing

00:27:18.180 --> 00:27:18.440
 this

00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:18.779
 down

00:27:18.779 --> 00:27:19.980
 what is

00:27:19.980 --> 00:27:20.240
 how does

00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:20.920
 he describe

00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:21.960
 the depth

00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:23.420
 of the

00:27:23.420 --> 00:27:24.019
 problem

00:27:24.019 --> 00:27:24.339
 here

00:27:24.339 --> 00:27:27.259
 it's all

00:27:27.259 --> 00:27:27.639
 inclusive

00:27:27.639 --> 00:27:28.099
 okay

00:27:28.099 --> 00:27:29.359
 that every

00:27:29.359 --> 00:27:30.139
 thought

00:27:30.139 --> 00:27:31.879
 of all

00:27:31.879 --> 00:27:32.440
 the time

00:27:32.440 --> 00:27:33.500
 is only

00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:33.899
 evil

00:27:33.899 --> 00:27:35.099
 there's no

00:27:35.099 --> 00:27:36.039
 spark of

00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:36.500
 goodness

00:27:36.500 --> 00:27:37.740
 at all

00:27:37.740 --> 00:27:38.460
 in their

00:27:38.460 --> 00:27:38.680
 heart

00:27:38.680 --> 00:27:41.779
 evil is

00:27:41.779 --> 00:27:42.220
 rooted in

00:27:42.220 --> 00:27:42.519
 the heart

00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:43.240
 that's a

00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:43.839
 great way

00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:44.259
 to summarize

00:27:44.259 --> 00:27:44.539
 that

00:27:44.539 --> 00:27:44.859
 David

00:27:44.859 --> 00:27:46.919
 that's our

00:27:46.919 --> 00:27:47.359
 condition

00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:49.339
 that's your

00:27:49.339 --> 00:27:49.639
 heart

00:27:49.639 --> 00:27:50.199
 that's my

00:27:50.199 --> 00:27:50.559
 heart

00:27:50.559 --> 00:27:52.199
 our heart

00:27:52.199 --> 00:27:53.720
 is only

00:27:53.720 --> 00:27:54.720
 evil

00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:55.839
 continually

00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:57.000
 given

00:27:57.000 --> 00:27:58.139
 the

00:27:58.139 --> 00:27:58.639
 permission

00:27:58.639 --> 00:27:59.799
 of God

00:27:59.799 --> 00:28:00.179
 to

00:28:00.179 --> 00:28:00.919
 the

00:28:00.919 --> 00:28:02.000
 unrestrained

00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:03.339
 passions of

00:28:03.339 --> 00:28:03.740
 our heart

00:28:03.740 --> 00:28:04.919
 always lead

00:28:04.919 --> 00:28:05.259
 us

00:28:05.259 --> 00:28:06.439
 to reject

00:28:06.439 --> 00:28:06.859
 God in

00:28:06.859 --> 00:28:07.439
 every way

00:28:07.439 --> 00:28:10.059
 every

00:28:10.059 --> 00:28:11.019
 intention

00:28:11.019 --> 00:28:12.180
 of your

00:28:12.180 --> 00:28:12.480
 heart

00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:14.079
 is only

00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:14.680
 evil

00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:15.339
 continually

00:28:15.339 --> 00:28:16.960
 unless it's

00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:17.220
 brought

00:28:17.220 --> 00:28:17.960
 into

00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:18.420
 alignment

00:28:18.420 --> 00:28:19.680
 with God

00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:20.839
 and is

00:28:20.839 --> 00:28:21.299
 accessing

00:28:21.299 --> 00:28:21.879
 his power

00:28:21.879 --> 00:28:22.740
 okay

00:28:22.740 --> 00:28:23.819
 that's the

00:28:23.819 --> 00:28:24.839
 bad news

00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:25.139
 okay

00:28:25.139 --> 00:28:25.900
 but there's

00:28:25.900 --> 00:28:26.599
 some good

00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:26.819
 news

00:28:26.819 --> 00:28:27.139
 and we're

00:28:27.139 --> 00:28:27.379
 gonna get

00:28:27.379 --> 00:28:27.680
 there

00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:28.879
 eventually

00:28:28.879 --> 00:28:29.220
 here

00:28:29.220 --> 00:28:30.420
 Proverbs

00:28:30.420 --> 00:28:31.000
 16

00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:31.720
 9

00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:32.099
 says

00:28:32.099 --> 00:28:33.079
 the heart

00:28:33.079 --> 00:28:33.699
 of man

00:28:33.699 --> 00:28:34.119
 plans

00:28:34.119 --> 00:28:34.679
 his way

00:28:34.679 --> 00:28:35.559
 but the

00:28:35.559 --> 00:28:35.759
 Lord

00:28:35.759 --> 00:28:36.480
 establishes

00:28:36.480 --> 00:28:36.939
 his steps

00:28:36.939 --> 00:28:37.319
 now why

00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:37.639
 is that

00:28:37.639 --> 00:28:38.099
 important

00:28:38.099 --> 00:28:38.799
 how does

00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:39.219
 that help

00:28:39.219 --> 00:28:39.619
 us to

00:28:39.619 --> 00:28:40.179
 understand

00:28:40.179 --> 00:28:42.219
 how things

00:28:42.219 --> 00:28:42.859
 should work

00:28:42.859 --> 00:28:43.859
 normally in the

00:28:43.859 --> 00:28:44.919
 course of

00:28:44.919 --> 00:28:45.599
 our heart

00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:46.119
 condition

00:28:46.119 --> 00:28:47.359
 and especially

00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:47.899
 when our

00:28:47.899 --> 00:28:48.939
 heart desires

00:28:48.939 --> 00:28:49.519
 to do the

00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:49.980
 things of the

00:28:49.980 --> 00:28:50.199
 Lord

00:28:50.199 --> 00:28:51.819
 what do we

00:28:51.819 --> 00:28:52.259
 learn about

00:28:52.259 --> 00:28:52.879
 the heart

00:28:52.879 --> 00:28:53.459
 here in

00:28:53.459 --> 00:28:53.939
 this verse

00:28:53.940 --> 00:28:57.519
 what do you

00:28:57.519 --> 00:28:57.779
 see

00:28:57.779 --> 00:29:01.380
 okay

00:29:01.380 --> 00:29:02.120
 that's good

00:29:02.120 --> 00:29:03.080
 our heart

00:29:03.080 --> 00:29:03.360
 is our

00:29:03.360 --> 00:29:03.960
 planning center

00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:04.640
 and by the

00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:04.880
 way

00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:05.600
 that is

00:29:05.600 --> 00:29:06.000
 good

00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:06.559
 okay

00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:07.759
 it is good

00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:08.120
 when your

00:29:08.120 --> 00:29:08.420
 heart

00:29:08.420 --> 00:29:08.980
 desires

00:29:08.980 --> 00:29:09.460
 things

00:29:09.460 --> 00:29:10.220
 it is good

00:29:10.220 --> 00:29:10.500
 when your

00:29:10.500 --> 00:29:10.759
 heart

00:29:10.759 --> 00:29:11.400
 plans

00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:11.779
 things

00:29:11.779 --> 00:29:12.299
 the

00:29:12.299 --> 00:29:14.019
 strategy

00:29:14.019 --> 00:29:14.500
 though

00:29:14.500 --> 00:29:15.000
 the key

00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:15.440
 is

00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:16.200
 is to

00:29:16.200 --> 00:29:16.920
 allow

00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:17.360
 God

00:29:17.360 --> 00:29:17.559
 to

00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:18.279
 govern

00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:19.259
 the

00:29:19.259 --> 00:29:19.660
 actual

00:29:19.660 --> 00:29:20.640
 outworkings

00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:21.299
 of

00:29:21.299 --> 00:29:21.700
 your

00:29:21.700 --> 00:29:22.259
 plans

00:29:22.259 --> 00:29:23.240
 so you

00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:23.559
 hold

00:29:23.559 --> 00:29:23.819
 those

00:29:23.819 --> 00:29:24.440
 plans

00:29:24.440 --> 00:29:25.000
 those

00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:25.579
 desires

00:29:25.579 --> 00:29:26.279
 with an

00:29:26.279 --> 00:29:26.500
 open

00:29:26.500 --> 00:29:27.000
 hand

00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:27.519
 and you

00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:27.980
 let God

00:29:27.980 --> 00:29:28.500
 guide and

00:29:28.500 --> 00:29:28.879
 direct

00:29:28.879 --> 00:29:29.720
 the steps

00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:29.980
 that you

00:29:29.980 --> 00:29:30.440
 take

00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:32.079
 and by the

00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:32.240
 way

00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:32.559
 you allow

00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:32.879
 God

00:29:32.879 --> 00:29:33.740
 to

00:29:33.740 --> 00:29:34.519
 fundamentally

00:29:34.519 --> 00:29:35.559
 change

00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:36.200
 those

00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:36.720
 desires

00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:37.759
 so that

00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:38.119
 they're in

00:29:38.119 --> 00:29:38.639
 line

00:29:38.639 --> 00:29:39.279
 alignment

00:29:39.279 --> 00:29:39.919
 with

00:29:39.919 --> 00:29:40.500
 his

00:29:40.500 --> 00:29:41.440
 desires

00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:42.919
 desires

00:29:42.919 --> 00:29:43.679
 can be

00:29:43.679 --> 00:29:43.919
 good

00:29:43.919 --> 00:29:44.279
 they're not

00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:44.879
 always

00:29:44.879 --> 00:29:45.700
 bad

00:29:45.700 --> 00:29:46.779
 and so

 of

00:31:44.779 --> 00:31:45.200
 themselves

00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:45.539
 are

00:31:45.539 --> 00:31:46.039
 neutral

00:31:46.039 --> 00:31:46.900
 okay

00:31:46.900 --> 00:31:48.240
 even

00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:49.200
 anger

00:31:49.200 --> 00:31:50.220
 and

00:31:50.220 --> 00:31:50.900
 frustration

00:31:50.900 --> 00:31:52.200
 and

00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:53.420
 discontentment

00:31:53.420 --> 00:31:54.539
 can be

00:31:54.539 --> 00:31:55.019
 somewhat

00:31:55.019 --> 00:31:55.640
 neutral

00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:56.759
 as long

00:31:56.759 --> 00:31:57.579
 as those

00:31:57.579 --> 00:31:59.140
 emotions

00:31:59.140 --> 00:32:00.299
 are driving

00:32:00.299 --> 00:32:00.680
 you in

00:32:00.680 --> 00:32:00.900
 the right

00:32:00.900 --> 00:32:01.360
 direction

00:32:01.360 --> 00:32:02.319
 okay

00:32:02.319 --> 00:32:03.559
 that God

00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:04.079
 isn't

00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:05.340
 God

00:32:05.340 --> 00:32:05.579
 isn't

00:32:05.579 --> 00:32:06.299
 alarmed

00:32:06.299 --> 00:32:06.579
 when

00:32:06.579 --> 00:32:06.859
 all

00:32:06.859 --> 00:32:06.980
 of

00:32:06.980 --> 00:32:07.119
 a

00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:07.460
 sudden

00:32:07.460 --> 00:32:08.379
 we're

00:32:08.379 --> 00:32:09.159
 frustrated

00:32:09.159 --> 00:32:09.500
 about

00:32:09.500 --> 00:32:09.980
 something

00:32:09.980 --> 00:32:11.439
 it's

00:32:11.439 --> 00:32:11.659
 just

00:32:11.659 --> 00:32:12.099
 what

00:32:12.099 --> 00:32:12.179
 do

00:32:12.179 --> 00:32:12.299
 we

00:32:12.299 --> 00:32:12.539
 do

00:32:12.539 --> 00:32:12.699
 with

00:32:12.699 --> 00:32:12.839
 that

00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:13.399
 frustration

00:32:13.399 --> 00:32:14.659
 what

00:32:14.659 --> 00:32:14.740
 do

00:32:14.740 --> 00:32:14.839
 we

00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:15.059
 do

00:32:15.059 --> 00:32:15.220
 with

00:32:15.220 --> 00:32:15.379
 that

00:32:15.379 --> 00:32:15.839
 fear

00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:16.559
 what

00:32:16.559 --> 00:32:16.639
 do

00:32:16.639 --> 00:32:16.740
 we

00:32:16.740 --> 00:32:16.919
 do

00:32:16.919 --> 00:32:17.059
 with

00:32:17.059 --> 00:32:17.199
 that

00:32:17.199 --> 00:32:17.859
 anxiety

00:32:17.859 --> 00:32:18.659
 what

00:32:18.659 --> 00:32:18.740
 do

00:32:18.740 --> 00:32:18.799
 we

00:32:18.799 --> 00:32:19.059
 do

00:32:19.059 --> 00:32:19.240
 with

00:32:19.240 --> 00:32:19.460
 those

00:32:19.460 --> 00:32:20.079
 feelings

00:32:20.079 --> 00:32:20.619
 of

00:32:20.619 --> 00:32:21.240
 despair

00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:22.299
 do

00:32:22.299 --> 00:32:22.500
 they

00:32:22.500 --> 00:32:23.339
 drive

00:32:23.339 --> 00:32:23.599
 us

00:32:23.599 --> 00:32:23.939
 to

00:32:23.939 --> 00:32:24.419
 God

00:32:24.419 --> 00:32:24.839
 or

00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:24.960
 do

00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:25.059
 they

00:32:25.059 --> 00:32:25.299
 drive

00:32:25.299 --> 00:32:25.439
 us

00:32:25.439 --> 00:32:25.699
 away

00:32:25.699 --> 00:32:25.919
 from

00:32:25.919 --> 00:32:26.139
 God

00:32:26.139 --> 00:32:26.339
 that

00:32:26.339 --> 00:32:26.859
 is

00:32:26.859 --> 00:32:27.179
 really

00:32:27.179 --> 00:32:27.740
 what's

00:32:27.740 --> 00:32:28.539
 important

00:32:28.539 --> 00:32:29.000
 so

00:32:29.000 --> 00:32:29.839
 feelings

00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:30.179
 in

00:32:30.179 --> 00:32:30.359
 and of

00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:30.879
 themselves

00:32:30.879 --> 00:32:31.480
 are

00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:32.199
 neutral

00:32:32.199 --> 00:32:33.039
 until

00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:33.399
 they

00:32:33.399 --> 00:32:33.679
 take

00:32:33.679 --> 00:32:34.279
 flight

00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:34.899
 in

00:32:34.899 --> 00:32:35.279
 moving

00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:35.519
 us

00:32:35.519 --> 00:32:35.639
 in

00:32:35.639 --> 00:32:35.740
 a

00:32:35.740 --> 00:32:35.899
 certain

00:32:35.899 --> 00:32:36.379
 direction

00:32:36.379 --> 00:32:37.779
 and

00:32:37.779 --> 00:32:38.000
 if

00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:38.299
 your

00:32:38.299 --> 00:32:39.059
 negative

00:32:39.059 --> 00:32:39.639
 emotions

00:32:39.639 --> 00:32:39.940
 move

00:32:39.940 --> 00:32:40.059
 you

00:32:40.059 --> 00:32:40.279
 to

00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:40.799
 God

00:32:40.799 --> 00:32:41.200
 then

00:32:41.200 --> 00:32:41.440
 that's

00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:42.139
 exactly

00:32:42.139 --> 00:32:42.700
 what

00:32:42.700 --> 00:32:43.059
 emotions

00:32:43.059 --> 00:32:43.220
 are

00:32:43.220 --> 00:32:43.339
 meant

00:32:43.339 --> 00:32:43.460
 to

00:32:43.460 --> 00:32:43.759
 do

00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:45.599
 and

00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:45.639
 and

00:32:45.639 --> 00:32:46.319
 then

00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:46.519
 God

00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:46.980
 begins

00:32:46.980 --> 00:32:47.279
 to

00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:47.639
 take

00:32:47.639 --> 00:32:47.920
 those

00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:48.460
 emotions

00:32:48.460 --> 00:32:49.539
 he

00:32:49.539 --> 00:32:49.920
 begins

00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:50.279
 to

00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:51.019
 to

00:32:51.019 --> 00:32:51.759
 to

00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:52.460
 move

00:32:52.460 --> 00:32:52.759
 those

00:32:52.759 --> 00:32:53.279
 emotions

00:32:53.279 --> 00:32:53.940
 around

00:32:53.940 --> 00:32:54.299
 and

00:32:54.299 --> 00:32:54.619
 to

00:32:54.619 --> 00:32:54.920
 help

00:32:54.920 --> 00:32:55.279
 us

00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:55.500
 to

00:32:55.500 --> 00:32:56.259
 become

00:32:56.259 --> 00:32:56.879
 secure

00:32:56.879 --> 00:32:57.099
 in

00:32:57.099 --> 00:32:57.279
 him

00:32:57.279 --> 00:32:57.539
 even

00:32:57.539 --> 00:32:57.799
 when

00:32:57.799 --> 00:32:58.019
 we

00:32:58.019 --> 00:32:58.279
 feel

00:32:58.279 --> 00:32:58.579
 like

00:32:58.579 --> 00:32:59.259
 in

00:32:59.259 --> 00:32:59.399
 our

00:32:59.399 --> 00:32:59.899
 emotional

00:32:59.899 --> 00:33:00.559
 turmoil

00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:00.819
 we're

00:33:00.819 --> 00:33:01.079
 just

00:33:01.079 --> 00:33:01.359
 like

00:33:01.359 --> 00:33:01.639
 I

00:33:01.639 --> 00:33:01.859
 don't

00:33:01.859 --> 00:33:02.039
 know

00:33:02.039 --> 00:33:02.240
 what

00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:02.379
 to

00:33:02.379 --> 00:33:02.720
 do

00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:03.740
 and

00:33:03.740 --> 00:33:04.360
 God

00:33:04.360 --> 00:33:04.980
 takes

00:33:04.980 --> 00:33:05.180
 those

00:33:05.180 --> 00:33:05.559
 emotions

00:33:05.559 --> 00:33:05.799
 he

00:33:05.799 --> 00:33:06.120
 begins

00:33:06.120 --> 00:33:06.319
 to

00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:06.680
 change

00:33:06.680 --> 00:33:06.960
 them

00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:07.980
 and

00:33:07.980 --> 00:33:08.240
 help

00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:08.620
 us

00:33:08.620 --> 00:33:09.640
 to

00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:10.319
 trust

00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:10.539
 him

00:33:10.539 --> 00:33:10.660
 and

00:33:10.660 --> 00:33:10.920
 worship

00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:11.319
 him

00:33:11.319 --> 00:33:12.400
 as

00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:13.180
 he

00:33:13.180 --> 00:33:13.819
 desires

00:33:13.819 --> 00:33:14.900
 so

00:33:14.900 --> 00:33:15.319
 what

00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:15.480
 does

00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:15.860
 our

00:33:15.860 --> 00:33:16.039
 heart

00:33:16.039 --> 00:33:16.440
 require

00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:16.660
 what

00:33:16.660 --> 00:33:16.940
 do

00:33:16.940 --> 00:33:17.059
 we

00:33:17.059 --> 00:33:17.460
 need

00:33:17.460 --> 00:33:18.079
 fundamentally

00:33:18.079 --> 00:33:18.860
 what

00:33:18.860 --> 00:33:18.940
 do

00:33:18.940 --> 00:33:19.519
 our

00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:19.860
 hearts

00:33:19.860 --> 00:33:20.160
 need

00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:20.420
 and that's

00:33:20.420 --> 00:33:20.759
 this next

00:33:20.759 --> 00:33:21.180
 section

00:33:21.180 --> 00:33:22.920
 what does

00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:23.120
 God

00:33:23.120 --> 00:33:23.380
 do

00:33:23.380 --> 00:33:24.360
 and here's

00:33:24.360 --> 00:33:24.480
 the

00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:25.160
 beautiful

00:33:25.160 --> 00:33:25.620
 truth

00:33:25.620 --> 00:33:26.180
 for us

00:33:26.180 --> 00:33:27.519
 Ezekiel

00:33:27.519 --> 00:33:28.100
 36

00:33:28.100 --> 00:33:28.720
 22

00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:30.160
 25

00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:30.339
 to

00:33:30.339 --> 00:33:30.839
 27

00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:31.279
 it says

00:33:31.279 --> 00:33:31.699
 therefore

00:33:31.699 --> 00:33:32.839
 say to

00:33:32.839 --> 00:33:33.279
 the house

00:33:33.279 --> 00:33:33.720
 of Israel

00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:34.199
 thus

00:33:34.199 --> 00:33:34.859
 says

00:33:34.859 --> 00:33:35.099
 the

00:33:35.099 --> 00:33:35.399
 Lord

00:33:35.399 --> 00:33:35.819
 God

00:33:35.819 --> 00:33:36.539
 it is

00:33:36.539 --> 00:33:36.779
 not

00:33:36.779 --> 00:33:36.959
 for

00:33:36.959 --> 00:33:37.159
 your

00:33:37.159 --> 00:33:37.439
 sake

00:33:37.439 --> 00:33:37.639
 O

00:33:37.639 --> 00:33:37.879
 house

00:33:37.879 --> 00:33:38.039
 of

00:33:38.039 --> 00:33:38.399
 Israel

00:33:38.399 --> 00:33:39.199
 that

00:33:39.199 --> 00:33:39.359
 I'm

00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:39.639
 about

00:33:39.639 --> 00:33:39.879
 to

00:33:39.879 --> 00:33:40.299
 act

00:33:40.299 --> 00:33:40.919
 but

00:33:40.919 --> 00:33:41.259
 for

00:33:41.259 --> 00:33:41.519
 the

00:33:41.519 --> 00:33:41.839
 sake

00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:42.139
 of

00:33:42.139 --> 00:33:42.439
 my

00:37:08.660 --> 00:37:09.220
 offerings

 not

00:37:18.780 --> 00:37:19.320
 despise

00:37:19.320 --> 00:37:21.960
 did

00:37:21.960 --> 00:37:22.220
 you catch

00:37:22.220 --> 00:37:22.500
 that

00:37:22.500 --> 00:37:25.599
 not only

00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:26.119
 do we need

00:37:26.119 --> 00:37:26.380
 to pray

00:37:26.380 --> 00:37:26.780
 that God

00:37:26.780 --> 00:37:26.960
 will

00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:27.619
 create

00:37:27.619 --> 00:37:28.320
 within

00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:28.539
 us

00:37:28.539 --> 00:37:28.639
 a

 clean

00:37:28.840 --> 00:37:29.099
 heart

00:37:29.099 --> 00:37:31.539
 but

00:37:31.539 --> 00:37:32.539
 David

00:37:32.539 --> 00:37:32.880
 comes

00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:33.019
 to

00:37:33.019 --> 00:37:33.579
 understand

00:37:33.579 --> 00:37:34.460
 that

00:37:34.460 --> 00:37:34.659
 if

00:37:34.659 --> 00:37:35.179
 true

00:37:35.179 --> 00:37:35.679
 worship

00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:36.039
 is

00:37:36.039 --> 00:37:36.340
 ever

00:37:36.340 --> 00:37:36.619
 going

00:37:36.619 --> 00:37:36.760
 to

00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:37.039
 happen

00:37:37.039 --> 00:37:37.659
 and

00:37:37.659 --> 00:37:37.860
 maybe

00:37:37.860 --> 00:37:38.000
 I

00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:38.099
 ought to

00:37:38.099 --> 00:37:38.260
 put

00:37:38.260 --> 00:37:38.380
 it

00:37:38.380 --> 00:37:38.559
 this

00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:38.940
 way

00:37:38.940 --> 00:37:39.960
 fundamentally

00:37:39.960 --> 00:37:41.219
 you

00:37:41.219 --> 00:37:41.380
 were

00:37:41.380 --> 00:37:41.860
 made

00:37:41.860 --> 00:37:42.420
 to be

00:37:42.420 --> 00:37:42.619
 a

00:37:42.619 --> 00:37:43.179
 worshipper

00:37:43.179 --> 00:37:44.920
 and

00:37:44.920 --> 00:37:45.059
 so

00:37:45.059 --> 00:37:45.280
 you

00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:45.500
 will

00:37:45.500 --> 00:37:45.840
 not

00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:46.460
 perform

00:37:46.460 --> 00:37:46.699
 the

00:37:46.699 --> 00:37:47.099
 purpose

00:37:47.099 --> 00:37:47.380
 for

00:37:47.380 --> 00:37:47.599
 which

00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:47.800
 you're

00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:48.199
 made

00:37:48.199 --> 00:37:48.739
 unless

00:37:48.739 --> 00:37:49.500
 you

00:37:49.500 --> 00:37:49.960
 worship

00:37:49.960 --> 00:37:50.639
 with

00:37:50.639 --> 00:37:50.780
 a

00:37:50.780 --> 00:37:51.000
 clean

00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:51.440
 heart

00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:52.960
 and

00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:53.179
 that's

00:37:53.179 --> 00:37:53.340
 what

00:37:53.340 --> 00:37:53.940
 David

00:37:53.940 --> 00:37:54.059
 is

00:37:54.059 --> 00:37:54.320
 coming

00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:54.599
 to

00:37:54.599 --> 00:37:55.300
 the

00:37:55.300 --> 00:37:55.980
 sacrifices

00:37:55.980 --> 00:37:56.220
 of

00:37:56.220 --> 00:37:56.500
 God

00:37:56.500 --> 00:37:56.900
 they're

00:37:56.900 --> 00:37:57.179
 not

00:37:57.179 --> 00:37:58.139
 bulls

00:37:58.139 --> 00:37:58.820
 and goats

00:37:58.820 --> 00:37:59.500
 and

00:37:59.500 --> 00:38:00.099
 rams

00:38:00.099 --> 00:38:00.820
 and all

00:38:00.820 --> 00:38:00.960
 of

00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:01.159
 this

00:38:01.159 --> 00:38:01.480
 these

00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:01.860
 blood

00:38:01.860 --> 00:38:02.639
 sacrifices

00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:02.960
 it's

00:38:02.960 --> 00:38:03.139
 not

00:38:03.139 --> 00:38:03.340
 the

00:38:03.340 --> 00:38:03.960
 performance

00:38:03.960 --> 00:38:04.340
 that you

00:38:04.340 --> 00:38:04.639
 bring

00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:04.880
 to the

00:38:04.880 --> 00:38:05.240
 table

00:38:05.240 --> 00:38:05.840
 no

00:38:05.840 --> 00:38:06.079
 it's

00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:06.260
 a

00:38:06.260 --> 00:38:06.519
 broken

00:38:06.519 --> 00:38:07.139
 heart

00:38:07.139 --> 00:38:07.960
 and

00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:08.099
 it's

00:38:08.099 --> 00:38:08.200
 a

00:38:08.200 --> 00:38:08.420
 broken

00:38:08.420 --> 00:38:08.740
 heart

00:38:08.740 --> 00:38:09.059
 by the

00:38:09.059 --> 00:38:09.220
 way

00:38:09.220 --> 00:38:09.380
 that

00:38:09.380 --> 00:38:09.619
 God

00:38:09.619 --> 00:38:09.960
 gives

00:38:09.960 --> 00:38:10.240
 you

00:38:10.240 --> 00:38:11.800
 it's

00:38:11.800 --> 00:38:11.920
 a

00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:12.099
 new

00:38:12.099 --> 00:38:12.519
 heart

00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:12.700
 that

00:38:12.700 --> 00:38:12.900
 God

00:38:12.900 --> 00:38:13.220
 wants

00:38:13.220 --> 00:38:13.440
 to

00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:13.740
 bless

00:38:13.740 --> 00:38:13.960
 you

00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:14.360
 with

00:38:14.360 --> 00:38:16.079
 and

00:38:16.079 --> 00:38:16.300
 so

00:38:16.300 --> 00:38:16.440
 as

00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:16.679
 we

00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:17.320
 come

00:38:17.320 --> 00:38:17.579
 with

00:38:17.579 --> 00:38:17.760
 that

00:38:17.760 --> 00:38:18.179
 broken

00:38:18.179 --> 00:38:18.539
 and

00:38:18.539 --> 00:38:19.099
 contrite

00:38:19.099 --> 00:38:19.619
 heart

00:38:19.619 --> 00:38:20.960
 then we

00:38:20.960 --> 00:38:21.099
 can

00:38:21.099 --> 00:38:21.339
 begin

00:38:21.339 --> 00:38:21.519
 to

00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:21.779
 worship

00:38:21.779 --> 00:38:22.099
 God

00:38:22.099 --> 00:38:22.299
 in a

00:38:22.299 --> 00:38:22.440
 way

00:38:22.440 --> 00:38:22.659
 that

00:38:22.659 --> 00:38:23.859
 he's

00:38:23.859 --> 00:38:24.199
 pleased

00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:24.619
 with

00:38:24.619 --> 00:38:26.639
 so

00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:27.460
 I

00:38:27.460 --> 00:38:27.679
 want to

00:38:27.679 --> 00:38:27.819
 take

00:38:27.819 --> 00:38:28.079
 just a

00:38:28.079 --> 00:38:28.219
 couple

00:38:28.219 --> 00:38:28.579
 moments

00:38:28.579 --> 00:38:28.779
 right

00:38:28.779 --> 00:38:28.960
 now

00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:29.659
 and

00:38:29.659 --> 00:38:29.759
 I

00:38:29.759 --> 00:38:29.940
 want

00:38:29.940 --> 00:38:30.099
 you

00:38:30.099 --> 00:38:30.579
 just

00:38:30.579 --> 00:38:31.219
 between

00:38:31.219 --> 00:38:31.719
 yourself

00:38:31.719 --> 00:38:31.940
 and

00:38:31.940 --> 00:38:32.039
 the

00:38:32.039 --> 00:38:32.219
 Lord

00:38:32.219 --> 00:38:32.619
 right

00:38:32.619 --> 00:38:32.819
 in

00:38:32.819 --> 00:38:32.980
 this

00:38:32.980 --> 00:38:33.319
 moment

00:38:33.319 --> 00:38:34.359
 ask

00:38:34.359 --> 00:38:34.539
 God

00:38:34.539 --> 00:38:34.659
 to

00:38:34.659 --> 00:38:34.779
 do

00:38:34.779 --> 00:38:34.940
 that

00:38:34.940 --> 00:38:35.079
 for

00:38:35.079 --> 00:38:35.279
 you

00:38:35.279 --> 00:38:35.960
 okay

00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:36.759
 just

00:38:36.759 --> 00:38:37.819
 going to

00:38:37.819 --> 00:38:37.940
 take

00:38:37.940 --> 00:38:38.039
 a

00:38:38.039 --> 00:38:38.159
 couple

00:38:38.159 --> 00:38:38.599
 moments

00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:39.019
 just

00:38:39.019 --> 00:38:39.179
 you

00:38:39.179 --> 00:38:39.279
 and

00:38:39.279 --> 00:38:39.359
 the

00:38:39.359 --> 00:38:39.579
 Lord

00:38:39.579 --> 00:38:40.440
 God

00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:40.599
 do

00:38:40.599 --> 00:38:40.779
 this

00:38:40.779 --> 00:38:40.960
 for

00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:41.139
 me

00:38:41.139 --> 00:38:41.579
 I

00:38:41.579 --> 00:38:41.799
 need

00:38:41.799 --> 00:38:41.799


00:38:41.799 --> 00:38:41.920
 a

00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:42.099
!

00:38:42.099 --> 00:38:42.339
 heart

00:39:12.099 --> 00:39:14.500
 out

00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.500


00:39:42.099 --> 00:39:48.299
 Father, thank you that you not only delight

00:39:48.299 --> 00:39:50.480
 in clean hearts, but that you give them.

00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:53.360
 You give them of your own accord.

00:39:54.799 --> 00:39:56.539
 And so Lord, I pray for each of us,

00:39:56.579 --> 00:39:58.739
 all of us in this room this morning,

00:39:59.460 --> 00:40:01.880
 that you would help us not only to understand

00:40:01.880 --> 00:40:04.639
 the significance of a clean heart,

00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:07.519
 but that you would help us to press in

00:40:07.519 --> 00:40:12.039
 and to desire and crave that renewed heart

00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:16.440
 that comes day by day through your mercy and grace.

00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:17.900
 In Jesus' name, amen.

00:40:19.239 --> 00:40:21.860
 There's a problem though, okay?

00:40:23.119 --> 00:40:26.759
 We know we need to have a clean heart.

00:40:26.759 --> 00:40:33.579
 We know that our hearts are often out of bounds,

00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:36.340
 but there's an issue, okay?

00:40:37.019 --> 00:40:38.340
 And here's the issue.

00:40:39.559 --> 00:40:42.840
 Proverbs 26, is it 26 or 28?

00:40:42.980 --> 00:40:43.180
 Sorry.

00:40:44.340 --> 00:40:45.500
 28, 26.

00:40:46.460 --> 00:40:47.079
 Someone read that.

00:40:49.120 --> 00:40:50.620
 Jack, read that out loud for me.

00:40:50.620 --> 00:40:52.980
 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,

00:40:53.360 --> 00:40:55.840
 that whoever walks wisely will be the Lord.

00:40:56.600 --> 00:40:57.000
 Okay.

00:40:57.980 --> 00:40:59.000
 David, read that again.

00:41:00.220 --> 00:41:00.660
 Do you have that?

00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:00.980
 Yep.

00:41:00.980 --> 00:41:01.340
 Sure.

00:41:01.840 --> 00:41:04.280
 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,

00:41:04.280 --> 00:41:06.700
 but whoever walks wisely will be the Lord.

00:41:07.240 --> 00:41:08.280
 Elliot, read that for me.

00:41:09.000 --> 00:41:11.700
 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,

00:41:11.960 --> 00:41:14.740
 but whoever walks wisely will be the Lord.

00:41:15.140 --> 00:41:16.340
 Alex, can you read that?

00:41:18.080 --> 00:41:20.420
 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,

00:41:21.080 --> 00:41:23.180
 whoever walks wisely will be the Lord.

00:41:24.620 --> 00:41:26.120
 How does deliverance come?

00:41:27.960 --> 00:41:28.960
 Not from the heart.

00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:32.099
 Well, it doesn't come in trusting the heart, right?

00:41:33.380 --> 00:41:34.740
 You trust in your heart,

00:41:35.740 --> 00:41:38.519
 you're asking for trouble.

00:41:40.720 --> 00:41:43.460
 And the language is really severe.

00:41:43.460 --> 00:41:46.480
 I mean, who wants to be called a fool?

00:41:48.019 --> 00:41:48.820
 You're an idiot.

00:41:49.740 --> 00:41:52.199
 That's the modern nomenclature.

00:41:53.539 --> 00:41:54.800
 What are you thinking about?

00:41:55.360 --> 00:41:57.740
 How stupid could you be?

00:41:58.260 --> 00:42:00.300
 Don't trust your heart.

00:42:02.199 --> 00:42:03.220
 It's foolish.

00:42:03.740 --> 00:42:04.480
 It's ignorant.

00:42:04.900 --> 00:42:05.800
 It's dumb.

00:42:06.340 --> 00:42:07.099
 It's stupid.

00:42:08.539 --> 00:42:09.659
 Don't be foolish.

00:42:09.659 --> 00:42:12.159
 And why?

00:42:12.299 --> 00:42:15.199
 Well, because in Jeremiah 17, 9 and 10,

00:42:15.299 --> 00:42:17.059
 it says the heart is deceitful.

00:42:17.599 --> 00:42:19.319
 The heart wants to trick you.

00:42:20.099 --> 00:42:21.279
 And let me tell you,

00:42:21.480 --> 00:42:24.599
 all of us are fooled by our heart.

00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:26.480
 Okay?

00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:30.279
 We're so fooled by our heart.

00:42:31.440 --> 00:42:34.759
 We give ourselves a pass far too often

00:42:34.759 --> 00:42:37.000
 because we see things about our heart

00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:38.920
 we want to be true, but are not true.

00:42:38.920 --> 00:42:40.360
 And so we're deceived.

00:42:40.880 --> 00:42:41.079
 Okay?

00:42:41.500 --> 00:42:42.320
 We're lied to.

00:42:43.360 --> 00:42:44.940
 And our heart is desperately wicked.

00:42:45.059 --> 00:42:45.800
 Who can know it?

00:42:46.539 --> 00:42:48.619
 I, the Lord, search the heart.

00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:50.159
 I test the mind.

00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:53.099
 Even to give every man according to his ways,

00:42:53.420 --> 00:42:55.099
 according to the fruit of his doings.

00:42:55.720 --> 00:42:58.900
 So that's the danger here, right?

00:42:59.220 --> 00:43:01.860
 You trust your untrustworthy heart.

00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:04.280
 God is the one who judges that heart

00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.360
 and God is the one who will bring

00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:09.140
 to pass the things that our heart

00:43:09.140 --> 00:43:11.260
 leads us to do.

00:43:11.620 --> 00:43:13.720
 And so those actions will be judged

00:43:13.720 --> 00:43:16.260
 once our heart leads us in a certain direction.

00:43:17.760 --> 00:43:19.440
 And God is the judge of our heart.

00:43:20.240 --> 00:43:22.140
 And God will not let us get away

00:43:22.140 --> 00:43:24.460
 with the things our heart wants to do.

00:43:26.540 --> 00:43:27.820
 Proverbs 16, 25.

00:43:27.820 --> 00:43:29.960
 There is a way that seems right to a man,

00:43:30.039 --> 00:43:33.000
 but the end of that way is death.

00:43:34.700 --> 00:43:35.180
 Okay.

00:43:35.660 --> 00:43:39.539
 So, let's just pause for a moment.

00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:42.580
 And what do we learn in here?

00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:44.819
 What do we learn about our heart?

00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:48.420
 What do we need to,

00:43:48.500 --> 00:43:49.819
 as we're navigating this

00:43:49.819 --> 00:43:51.960
 and we understand the significance

00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:55.259
 of it being the control center of our lives

00:43:55.259 --> 00:43:58.000
 and directs the things that we do,

00:43:58.360 --> 00:44:01.960
 what do we need to understand about our heart

00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:06.960
 and then how that will then help to align

00:44:06.960 --> 00:44:09.279
 and regulate the decisions that we make?

00:44:10.819 --> 00:44:11.639
 What do you think?

00:44:12.579 --> 00:44:12.980
 Okay.

00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:16.159
 Don't lean on your own understanding.

00:44:16.719 --> 00:44:17.900
 And to keep going,

00:44:18.199 --> 00:44:18.940
 in all your ways,

00:44:19.059 --> 00:44:19.779
 acknowledge him.

00:44:20.179 --> 00:44:21.400
 He will make your path straight.

00:44:21.460 --> 00:44:22.420
 That's the answer, right?

00:44:23.279 --> 00:44:26.699
 The answer is not to trust in your own ways.

00:44:26.819 --> 00:44:28.340
 Not to trust in your own path,

00:44:28.500 --> 00:44:30.960
 but to find a way

00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:34.400
 to understand the path that God has set for us

00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:36.980
 and that we're going to let his path

00:44:36.980 --> 00:44:38.159
 direct our steps.

00:44:38.239 --> 00:44:39.139
 He will make it straight.

00:44:39.279 --> 00:44:39.420
 Good.

00:44:39.420 --> 00:44:40.460
 What else you learn?

00:44:42.579 --> 00:44:51.099
 That's good.

00:44:59.179 --> 00:44:59.980
 That's good.

00:45:01.119 --> 00:45:01.639
 That's good.

00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:05.759
 Man, you just crushed me right now.

00:45:06.259 --> 00:45:08.059
 I can't follow my heart.

00:45:08.179 --> 00:45:09.099
 I just, wow.

00:45:09.779 --> 00:45:10.859
 Disney, poof.

00:45:12.359 --> 00:45:13.139
 That's true.

00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:14.159
 That's good.

00:45:14.619 --> 00:45:15.059
 Thank you.

00:45:15.900 --> 00:45:16.639
 What else?

00:45:16.639 --> 00:45:17.779
 Okay.

00:45:17.779 --> 00:45:20.139
 If it moves you toward God in activity,

00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:21.400
 that's what it is.

00:45:22.339 --> 00:45:22.779
 Okay.

00:45:22.920 --> 00:45:23.839
 It moves you away

00:45:23.839 --> 00:45:24.839
 because a lot of times,

00:45:25.420 --> 00:45:27.199
 you know good and evil.

00:45:28.259 --> 00:45:29.659
 But you really have to,

00:45:29.819 --> 00:45:31.739
 if this is moving me away from God,

00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:37.159
 that should be a red flag.

00:45:37.159 --> 00:45:37.719
 Okay, good.

00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:40.799
 So, that's a great summary, Jack.

00:45:40.939 --> 00:45:43.019
 If it moves me away from God,

00:45:44.099 --> 00:45:48.279
 then it's fundamentally having the wrong effect on my heart.

00:45:48.679 --> 00:45:48.799
 Right?

00:45:48.839 --> 00:45:50.239
 My heart is out of sync.

00:45:50.619 --> 00:45:53.179
 Now, here's where the real danger comes into play.

00:45:53.959 --> 00:45:58.000
 The real danger is what we see in the Pharisees.

00:45:58.719 --> 00:45:58.980
 Right?

00:45:59.459 --> 00:46:02.019
 They were really close to God.

00:46:02.399 --> 00:46:04.279
 They really loved God.

00:46:04.459 --> 00:46:06.279
 They really obeyed God.

00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:08.160
 They really followed God.

00:46:08.240 --> 00:46:12.300
 They were really zealous and passionate for the things of God.

00:46:12.340 --> 00:46:13.780
 And I put that in air quotes

00:46:13.780 --> 00:46:15.980
 because we know the reality, right?

00:46:16.580 --> 00:46:19.760
 How deceptive the heart can be.

00:46:20.519 --> 00:46:23.260
 They thought they were checking those boxes.

00:46:23.940 --> 00:46:25.900
 They thought they were doing the right things.

00:46:26.200 --> 00:46:27.820
 They thought they were worshiping God

00:46:27.820 --> 00:46:30.380
 till the day is long.

00:46:30.500 --> 00:46:34.720
 They thought they were doing exactly what God wanted.

00:46:36.280 --> 00:46:38.480
 But they were wrong.

00:46:39.380 --> 00:46:40.880
 They were wrong.

00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:44.340
 Because they didn't understand the heart of God.

00:46:44.840 --> 00:46:44.980
 Right?

00:46:46.160 --> 00:46:50.540
 And it was their own heart and passions and idols and cravings

00:46:50.540 --> 00:46:51.720
 that were driving, really,

00:46:52.120 --> 00:46:55.500
 fueling those inward desires.

00:46:56.620 --> 00:46:56.860
 Okay.

00:46:57.820 --> 00:46:58.820
 So, what do we do?

00:46:59.280 --> 00:46:59.480
 Okay.

00:46:59.480 --> 00:47:01.559
 If we can't trust our heart,

00:47:02.039 --> 00:47:04.240
 then what are we left with?

00:47:04.440 --> 00:47:05.559
 Now it's just like,

00:47:05.619 --> 00:47:07.599
 oh, I guess it's all hopeless.

00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:09.719
 I guess we can't do anything.

00:47:10.320 --> 00:47:13.079
 I guess we need to abandon all this effort

00:47:13.079 --> 00:47:14.559
 and just forget about it.

00:47:14.780 --> 00:47:15.039
 No.

00:47:15.440 --> 00:47:16.400
 That's not the answer.

00:47:17.380 --> 00:47:18.760
 And just for the next few moments,

00:47:18.820 --> 00:47:23.619
 I want to just take us to 2 Corinthians 7,

00:47:23.740 --> 00:47:24.740
 verses 9 to 11.

00:47:25.139 --> 00:47:25.440
 Okay?

00:47:25.440 --> 00:47:29.000
 And we're going to see that there is a way

00:47:29.000 --> 00:47:32.460
 that we need to actively calibrate our hearts.

00:47:32.780 --> 00:47:38.940
 We need to actively pursue realignment of our hearts to God.

00:47:39.059 --> 00:47:40.099
 And how does that happen?

00:47:41.000 --> 00:47:42.320
 Well, it happens through repentance.

00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:43.579
 Okay?

00:47:44.019 --> 00:47:49.200
 It happens through having this personal,

00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:52.079
 humble self-evaluation

00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:56.000
 that is honest with God

00:47:56.000 --> 00:47:57.699
 and broken.

00:47:58.779 --> 00:48:02.000
 This contrite spirit and broken heart

00:48:02.000 --> 00:48:03.779
 that the psalmist talks about.

00:48:03.980 --> 00:48:06.059
 That's the kind of heart the Lord will not despise.

00:48:06.259 --> 00:48:07.319
 So, what does that look like?

00:48:07.399 --> 00:48:08.759
 Well, I think

00:48:08.759 --> 00:48:11.879
 it can be really summarized well here.

00:48:11.939 --> 00:48:14.579
 And I think this is important for us to kind of take away.

00:48:14.579 --> 00:48:19.179
 We'll build on this as we continue to work through this content.

00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:21.199
 But it's important for us to understand

00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:23.880
 the difference between godly sorrow

00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:25.860
 and worldly sorrow.

00:48:26.819 --> 00:48:27.000
 Okay?

00:48:27.659 --> 00:48:29.239
 When you get caught,

00:48:30.699 --> 00:48:31.639
 my guess is

00:48:31.639 --> 00:48:35.659
 that 999 of us out of 1,000

00:48:35.659 --> 00:48:37.739
 are going to feel bad about it.

00:48:38.360 --> 00:48:38.599
 Okay?

00:48:38.599 --> 00:48:42.059
 But is that driven by godly sorrow?

00:48:42.679 --> 00:48:45.079
 Or is that driven by worldly sorrow?

00:48:45.880 --> 00:48:46.920
 Let me just read this verse.

00:48:47.339 --> 00:48:48.239
 We'll break it apart.

00:48:48.679 --> 00:48:50.420
 We'll talk about it for just a few minutes.

00:48:51.619 --> 00:48:54.299
 And then we'll be done.

00:48:54.599 --> 00:48:54.719
 Okay?

00:48:55.519 --> 00:48:58.380
 2 Corinthians 7, verses 9 to 11 says this.

00:48:58.960 --> 00:48:59.860
 As it is,

00:49:00.039 --> 00:49:01.299
 this is Paul speaking.

00:49:01.420 --> 00:49:02.719
 He's writing to the church of Corinth.

00:49:03.380 --> 00:49:03.839
 And I'm sorry,

00:49:03.940 --> 00:49:05.699
 let me just give you a tad bit of background.

00:49:05.980 --> 00:49:06.139
 Okay?

00:49:06.139 --> 00:49:10.059
 If you go all the way back to Paul's first letter to Corinth,

00:49:10.719 --> 00:49:12.319
 which I think is actually his second letter.

00:49:12.420 --> 00:49:13.599
 We don't have his first letter,

00:49:13.759 --> 00:49:15.079
 but that's not a matter.

00:49:15.379 --> 00:49:17.639
 1 Corinthians 5,

00:49:18.480 --> 00:49:22.819
 Paul talks about this brother in the church

00:49:22.819 --> 00:49:25.420
 who was caught in sexual immorality.

00:49:25.659 --> 00:49:25.960
 Remember?

00:49:26.379 --> 00:49:26.539
 Okay?

00:49:27.019 --> 00:49:30.179
 And the church thought they were being tolerant.

00:49:30.879 --> 00:49:32.159
 They thought they were being gracious

00:49:32.159 --> 00:49:33.859
 by putting up with it.

00:49:33.859 --> 00:49:35.159
 And the apostle Paul says,

00:49:35.159 --> 00:49:37.279
 what is your problem?

00:49:37.759 --> 00:49:39.719
 Not even the Gentiles,

00:49:39.799 --> 00:49:43.099
 not even the world thinks or acts this way.

00:49:43.279 --> 00:49:44.659
 You've got to discipline this guy.

00:49:44.719 --> 00:49:46.219
 You've got to help him understand

00:49:46.219 --> 00:49:47.839
 the significance of his sin.

00:49:48.039 --> 00:49:49.539
 You've got to boot him out of the church.

00:49:50.519 --> 00:49:51.739
 And now some time has elapsed.

00:49:53.039 --> 00:49:53.739
 Some time has elapsed.

00:49:53.739 --> 00:49:57.559
 And this church of Corinth is still set

00:49:57.559 --> 00:50:00.119
 on discipline,

00:50:00.739 --> 00:50:01.859
 in severity,

00:50:02.299 --> 00:50:03.299
 in harshness,

00:50:03.699 --> 00:50:05.639
 when it's clear that this man

00:50:05.639 --> 00:50:08.159
 has been broken over his sin,

00:50:08.419 --> 00:50:10.059
 has asked for forgiveness,

00:50:10.459 --> 00:50:12.739
 and wants to be now part of the church again.

00:50:12.879 --> 00:50:15.419
 And now Paul has to address this church.

00:50:15.420 --> 00:50:19.300
 And not only their initial actions

00:50:19.300 --> 00:50:20.840
 towards this man,

00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:22.360
 which were right and good,

00:50:22.880 --> 00:50:25.360
 but now their own condition of their heart

00:50:25.360 --> 00:50:26.740
 that they need to understand

00:50:26.740 --> 00:50:29.539
 the significance of bringing him into the fold

00:50:29.539 --> 00:50:31.360
 and recognizing the significance

00:50:31.360 --> 00:50:34.000
 of their own sorrowing over sin.

00:50:34.159 --> 00:50:34.300
 Okay?

00:50:34.440 --> 00:50:36.260
 So all of that is a context

00:50:36.260 --> 00:50:38.680
 for 2 Corinthians 7, 9 to 11.

00:50:39.360 --> 00:50:39.720
 It says,

00:50:39.719 --> 00:50:40.359
 As it is,

00:50:40.639 --> 00:50:41.359
 I rejoice,

00:50:42.239 --> 00:50:44.059
 not just because you were grieved,

00:50:44.619 --> 00:50:44.899
 meaning,

00:50:45.839 --> 00:50:47.619
 you were grieved over this man's sin.

00:50:48.480 --> 00:50:49.299
 That was right.

00:50:49.379 --> 00:50:49.980
 That was good.

00:50:50.179 --> 00:50:52.000
 And when I came after you,

00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:54.439
 I came with some really strong words,

00:50:54.779 --> 00:50:56.659
 and you understood and recognized

00:50:56.659 --> 00:50:58.559
 the significance of what was happening,

00:50:58.799 --> 00:51:00.859
 and you acted in an appropriate way

00:51:00.859 --> 00:51:02.319
 towards disciplining this guy.

00:51:02.619 --> 00:51:05.299
 And your own hearts were grieved as well,

00:51:05.500 --> 00:51:06.399
 because you recognized

00:51:06.399 --> 00:51:08.419
 that you were also culpable in some way.

00:51:08.420 --> 00:51:09.920
 I'm not holding him accountable.

00:51:10.260 --> 00:51:10.400
 Okay?

00:51:11.200 --> 00:51:11.680
 He moves on.

00:51:11.980 --> 00:51:14.420
 But because you were grieved into repenting,

00:51:15.680 --> 00:51:17.659
 for you felt a godly grief

00:51:17.659 --> 00:51:20.440
 so that you suffered no loss through us.

00:51:21.220 --> 00:51:24.039
 For godly grief produces repentance

00:51:24.039 --> 00:51:27.019
 that leads to salvation without regret,

00:51:27.780 --> 00:51:30.720
 whereas worldly grief produces death.

00:51:31.940 --> 00:51:33.380
 For see what earnestness

00:51:33.380 --> 00:51:35.220
 this godly grief has produced in you,

00:51:35.659 --> 00:51:38.059
 but also what eagerness to clear yourselves

00:51:38.059 --> 00:51:39.519
 what indignation,

00:51:39.900 --> 00:51:40.639
 what fear,

00:51:41.039 --> 00:51:41.799
 what longing,

00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:42.860
 what zeal,

00:51:43.119 --> 00:51:43.820
 what punishment.

00:51:44.519 --> 00:51:45.699
 At every point,

00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:47.559
 you have proved yourselves innocent

00:51:47.559 --> 00:51:48.320
 in this matter.

00:51:49.059 --> 00:51:49.340
 Okay?

00:51:50.599 --> 00:51:52.239
 Let me just begin briefly

00:51:52.239 --> 00:51:54.619
 with a discussion of the difference

00:51:54.619 --> 00:51:55.880
 between worldly sorrow

00:51:55.880 --> 00:51:58.000
 and godly sorrow.

00:51:58.239 --> 00:51:58.480
 Okay?

00:51:59.299 --> 00:52:00.559
 What is worldly sorrow?

00:52:00.719 --> 00:52:02.059
 Did I put this in your...

00:52:02.779 --> 00:52:03.199
 Okay, good.

00:52:03.199 --> 00:52:06.039
 Worldly sorrow is regret.

00:52:06.859 --> 00:52:08.519
 It's self-centered grief.

00:52:09.259 --> 00:52:10.339
 You feel bad,

00:52:10.699 --> 00:52:11.500
 but you feel bad

00:52:11.500 --> 00:52:12.819
 because you got caught.

00:52:13.460 --> 00:52:13.759
 Okay?

00:52:14.239 --> 00:52:15.239
 You feel bad

00:52:15.239 --> 00:52:16.099
 because you're worried

00:52:16.099 --> 00:52:17.339
 about consequences.

00:52:18.039 --> 00:52:19.079
 You feel bad

00:52:19.079 --> 00:52:20.799
 because there's a level of shame

00:52:20.799 --> 00:52:22.319
 that has happened.

00:52:22.779 --> 00:52:23.039
 Okay?

00:52:23.480 --> 00:52:24.779
 It's not driven

00:52:24.779 --> 00:52:25.199
 by

00:52:25.199 --> 00:52:26.199
 by

00:52:26.199 --> 00:52:28.099
 by

00:52:28.099 --> 00:52:29.500
 a feeling

00:52:29.500 --> 00:52:30.539
 of guilt,

00:52:30.719 --> 00:52:31.500
 personal guilt

00:52:31.500 --> 00:52:32.419
 and understanding

00:52:32.419 --> 00:52:33.719
 of your sin

00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:34.819
 so much as

00:52:34.819 --> 00:52:35.739
 I...

00:52:35.739 --> 00:52:36.779
 Because you would have kept

00:52:36.779 --> 00:52:38.460
 doing it

00:52:38.460 --> 00:52:40.199
 without any problem

00:52:40.199 --> 00:52:41.699
 until you got caught

00:52:41.699 --> 00:52:43.219
 because you didn't care

00:52:43.219 --> 00:52:45.119
 about the sin itself.

00:52:45.259 --> 00:52:46.019
 You just cared about

00:52:46.019 --> 00:52:46.739
 the consequences.

00:52:46.739 --> 00:52:47.219
 You understand?

00:52:48.019 --> 00:52:48.179
 Okay?

00:52:48.839 --> 00:52:49.239
 So,

00:52:49.659 --> 00:52:50.579
 it focuses on

00:52:50.579 --> 00:52:51.419
 I got caught.

00:52:51.799 --> 00:52:52.919
 This is ruining my life.

00:52:53.019 --> 00:52:54.059
 Look what's happened

00:52:54.059 --> 00:52:54.659
 to me now.

00:52:55.760 --> 00:52:56.920
 People think less

00:52:56.920 --> 00:52:57.559
 of me now.

00:52:57.720 --> 00:52:57.920
 Okay?

00:52:58.099 --> 00:52:58.539
 That's

00:52:58.539 --> 00:52:59.980
 that's

00:52:59.980 --> 00:53:01.200
 worldly sorrow.

00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:02.220
 Can you

00:53:02.220 --> 00:53:03.740
 resonate with that?

00:53:03.940 --> 00:53:04.659
 Have you seen that?

00:53:04.700 --> 00:53:05.659
 Have you experienced that?

00:53:05.860 --> 00:53:06.200
 You understand

00:53:06.200 --> 00:53:07.159
 what we're talking about here?

00:53:07.599 --> 00:53:07.820
 Okay.

00:53:08.300 --> 00:53:08.880
 So then,

00:53:08.960 --> 00:53:09.880
 how does that compare

00:53:09.880 --> 00:53:10.740
 with godly sorrow?

00:53:10.740 --> 00:53:11.300
 Well,

00:53:11.380 --> 00:53:12.139
 godly sorrow

00:53:12.139 --> 00:53:14.059
 is God-centered grief.

00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:15.760
 It grieves

00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:17.019
 the sin itself

00:53:17.019 --> 00:53:17.519
 because

00:53:17.519 --> 00:53:18.480
 it has offended

00:53:18.480 --> 00:53:19.139
 a holy God.

00:53:19.800 --> 00:53:20.940
 You come to terms

00:53:20.940 --> 00:53:21.740
 with understanding,

00:53:21.739 --> 00:53:23.099
 oh lord,

00:53:24.039 --> 00:53:24.959
 now I begin

00:53:24.959 --> 00:53:25.779
 to understand

00:53:25.779 --> 00:53:26.559
 the significance

00:53:26.559 --> 00:53:28.099
 of how this

00:53:28.099 --> 00:53:28.939
 has brought

00:53:28.939 --> 00:53:29.919
 reproach to your name.

00:53:31.419 --> 00:53:31.979
 God,

00:53:32.139 --> 00:53:33.679
 I don't care

00:53:33.679 --> 00:53:35.139
 what happens

00:53:35.139 --> 00:53:35.459
 to me.

00:53:35.539 --> 00:53:36.039
 I don't care

00:53:36.039 --> 00:53:36.899
 what the consequences

00:53:36.899 --> 00:53:37.279
 are.

00:53:37.879 --> 00:53:38.719
 But what I care

00:53:38.719 --> 00:53:39.459
 about is how

00:53:39.459 --> 00:53:40.599
 this has dishonored

00:53:40.599 --> 00:53:42.099
 you and I want

00:53:42.099 --> 00:53:44.239
 whatever it takes

00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:45.219
 in my life

00:53:45.219 --> 00:53:45.979
 for my life

00:53:45.979 --> 00:53:46.659
 to honor you.

00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:48.459
 And so,

00:53:48.599 --> 00:53:49.179
 you can bring

00:53:49.179 --> 00:53:50.019
 whatever punishment,

00:53:50.219 --> 00:53:50.639
 you can bring

00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:51.719
 whatever consequences,

00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:54.239
 whatever it takes,

00:53:54.599 --> 00:53:54.839
 Lord,

00:53:54.959 --> 00:53:56.419
 I want my life

00:53:56.419 --> 00:53:57.539
 to please you.

00:53:57.859 --> 00:53:58.759
 That's the difference.

00:53:59.559 --> 00:53:59.699
 Okay?

00:54:01.379 --> 00:54:01.899
 So,

00:54:02.739 --> 00:54:05.319
 examples of godly sorrow here.

00:54:06.319 --> 00:54:07.159
 I hate the sin

00:54:07.159 --> 00:54:08.259
 because God hates the sin.

00:54:09.339 --> 00:54:10.259
 It's what we see

00:54:10.259 --> 00:54:11.179
 in King David

00:54:11.179 --> 00:54:11.819
 when Nathan

00:54:11.819 --> 00:54:13.000
 confronts him

00:54:13.000 --> 00:54:13.899
 about Bathsheba.

00:54:14.539 --> 00:54:14.799
 Right?

00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:16.480
 And all of a sudden

00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:17.719
 when there's this point

00:54:17.719 --> 00:54:18.500
 of revelation

00:54:18.500 --> 00:54:19.259
 in his heart,

00:54:19.319 --> 00:54:19.500
 he's like,

00:54:20.019 --> 00:54:21.260
 oh my goodness,

00:54:21.420 --> 00:54:22.179
 what have I done?

00:54:22.460 --> 00:54:22.820
 Oh Lord,

00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:24.099
 please forgive me.

00:54:25.139 --> 00:54:25.360
 Right?

00:54:25.420 --> 00:54:26.000
 This expression

00:54:26.000 --> 00:54:26.579
 of his heart.

00:54:27.579 --> 00:54:29.079
 I want to be clean again.

00:54:29.679 --> 00:54:30.760
 I want my love

00:54:30.760 --> 00:54:31.599
 to be reordered

00:54:31.599 --> 00:54:33.300
 around God.

00:54:33.860 --> 00:54:35.619
 Not my emotions,

00:54:35.840 --> 00:54:36.619
 not my passions

00:54:36.619 --> 00:54:38.340
 that are pushing me

00:54:38.340 --> 00:54:39.440
 towards other things,

00:54:39.559 --> 00:54:40.760
 but I want my passions

00:54:40.760 --> 00:54:41.360
 to lead me

00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:42.119
 to him.

00:54:42.539 --> 00:54:42.780
 Right?

00:54:42.780 --> 00:54:44.380
 So,

00:54:44.900 --> 00:54:47.019
 this passage,

00:54:47.160 --> 00:54:48.519
 2 Corinthians 7,

00:54:48.640 --> 00:54:49.519
 verses 9-11,

00:54:49.780 --> 00:54:50.560
 and especially

00:54:50.560 --> 00:54:51.580
 in verse 11,

00:54:52.180 --> 00:54:52.780
 now give us

00:54:52.780 --> 00:54:54.519
 seven characteristics

00:54:54.519 --> 00:54:56.660
 of what godly sorrow

00:54:56.660 --> 00:54:57.280
 looks like.

00:54:57.340 --> 00:54:59.160
 What does true repentance

00:54:59.160 --> 00:54:59.800
 look like?

00:55:00.100 --> 00:55:01.420
 How can I know

00:55:01.420 --> 00:55:02.980
 in my heart

00:55:02.980 --> 00:55:04.540
 and how can I know

00:55:04.540 --> 00:55:05.920
 with the people around me

00:55:05.920 --> 00:55:07.380
 whether or not

00:55:07.380 --> 00:55:08.680
 what they're doing

00:55:08.680 --> 00:55:10.740
 in asking for forgiveness

00:55:10.739 --> 00:55:12.959
 is self-serving

00:55:12.959 --> 00:55:13.859
 or God-serving?

00:55:14.379 --> 00:55:14.579
 Okay?

00:55:14.939 --> 00:55:15.659
 And here's some

00:55:15.659 --> 00:55:16.699
 characteristics,

00:55:17.239 --> 00:55:17.959
 some qualities

00:55:17.959 --> 00:55:18.619
 the Apostle Paul

00:55:18.619 --> 00:55:19.259
 points to.

00:55:19.359 --> 00:55:20.279
 There are seven of them,

00:55:20.479 --> 00:55:20.719
 kind of,

00:55:21.039 --> 00:55:22.959
 one right after the other.

00:55:23.139 --> 00:55:23.399
 Okay?

00:55:23.959 --> 00:55:25.019
 And we're just going to

00:55:25.019 --> 00:55:25.759
 touch on them briefly.

00:55:25.939 --> 00:55:26.139
 Okay?

00:55:26.539 --> 00:55:27.959
 You see that in verse 11.

00:55:28.419 --> 00:55:29.239
 What earnestness

00:55:29.239 --> 00:55:29.879
 this godly grief

00:55:29.879 --> 00:55:30.679
 has produced in you,

00:55:31.079 --> 00:55:31.939
 what eagerness,

00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:33.479
 what indignation,

00:55:33.599 --> 00:55:34.039
 what fear,

00:55:34.139 --> 00:55:34.599
 what longing,

00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:35.139
 what zeal,

00:55:35.219 --> 00:55:35.799
 what punishment,

00:55:36.219 --> 00:55:36.839
 at every point

00:55:36.839 --> 00:55:37.599
 you proved yourselves

00:55:37.599 --> 00:55:38.119
 to be innocent

00:55:38.119 --> 00:55:38.519
 as a matter.

00:55:38.519 --> 00:55:39.899
 There are seven of them.

00:55:39.900 --> 00:55:41.360
 I just want to touch on briefly.

00:55:41.539 --> 00:55:41.639
 Okay?

00:55:41.700 --> 00:55:42.200
 First is

00:55:42.200 --> 00:55:45.519
 the pursuit of purity.

00:55:46.340 --> 00:55:47.559
 The pursuit of purity

00:55:47.559 --> 00:55:48.480
 that's kind of captured

00:55:48.480 --> 00:55:50.000
 in this word earnestness.

00:55:51.519 --> 00:55:52.119
 Earnestness.

00:55:53.920 --> 00:55:54.980
 That once you're caught,

00:55:56.260 --> 00:55:57.200
 or maybe I should say,

00:55:57.420 --> 00:55:58.900
 once you come to terms

00:55:58.900 --> 00:56:01.119
 with your sin

00:56:01.119 --> 00:56:03.900
 and how that sin

00:56:03.900 --> 00:56:07.440
 has disrupted fellowship

00:56:07.440 --> 00:56:08.019
 with God

00:56:08.019 --> 00:56:10.079
 and has brought shame

00:56:10.079 --> 00:56:11.019
 or dishonor

00:56:11.019 --> 00:56:11.619
 to God

00:56:11.619 --> 00:56:12.920
 through your sin,

00:56:13.420 --> 00:56:14.780
 now there's this

00:56:14.780 --> 00:56:16.019
 intensity,

00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:18.179
 this earnestness.

00:56:18.619 --> 00:56:19.259
 He also describes

00:56:19.259 --> 00:56:20.360
 as eagerness,

00:56:21.059 --> 00:56:22.679
 this strong desire,

00:56:23.219 --> 00:56:23.519
 Lord,

00:56:23.780 --> 00:56:25.579
 I want to be pure.

00:56:27.019 --> 00:56:28.860
 I want to be clean.

00:56:29.679 --> 00:56:31.460
 I want not

00:56:31.460 --> 00:56:32.719
 to dishonor you

00:56:32.719 --> 00:56:33.800
 in this way again.

00:56:33.800 --> 00:56:36.380
 this intensity,

00:56:36.760 --> 00:56:37.660
 this earnestness,

00:56:37.720 --> 00:56:38.460
 this eagerness,

00:56:38.620 --> 00:56:39.660
 this zeal

00:56:39.660 --> 00:56:40.420
 and desire

00:56:40.420 --> 00:56:41.120
 in your heart.

00:56:41.440 --> 00:56:42.360
 Oh, God,

00:56:42.580 --> 00:56:43.360
 help me

00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:45.360
 that this is not

00:56:45.360 --> 00:56:46.740
 a pattern in my life,

00:56:47.000 --> 00:56:47.640
 that this

00:56:47.640 --> 00:56:48.900
 is something

00:56:48.900 --> 00:56:50.420
 that I never have

00:56:50.420 --> 00:56:51.519
 to repent

00:56:51.519 --> 00:56:52.660
 about again.

00:56:52.840 --> 00:56:54.180
 That's your heart.

00:56:54.380 --> 00:56:55.240
 While you know

00:56:55.240 --> 00:56:57.560
 that it's likely

00:56:57.560 --> 00:56:58.240
 that there's going

00:56:58.240 --> 00:56:59.039
 to be sin again,

00:56:59.160 --> 00:57:00.400
 maybe even in that area

00:57:00.400 --> 00:57:01.300
 again and again

00:57:01.300 --> 00:57:01.820
 and again,

00:57:02.100 --> 00:57:03.240
 that your heart says,

00:57:03.239 --> 00:57:03.839
 no,

00:57:04.599 --> 00:57:05.879
 I want to be free

00:57:05.879 --> 00:57:06.259
 of this.

00:57:06.359 --> 00:57:07.099
 I want to be

00:57:07.099 --> 00:57:08.259
 unburdened by this.

00:57:08.339 --> 00:57:09.899
 I want to please you.

00:57:10.139 --> 00:57:10.659
 Oh, God,

00:57:11.119 --> 00:57:13.000
 the intense earnestness

00:57:13.000 --> 00:57:13.659
 of my heart

00:57:13.659 --> 00:57:15.500
 is for purity,

00:57:16.399 --> 00:57:17.159
 this pursuit

00:57:17.159 --> 00:57:18.319
 of purity.

00:57:19.819 --> 00:57:21.159
 Next is

00:57:21.159 --> 00:57:22.459
 the presence

00:57:22.459 --> 00:57:23.839
 of repentance.

00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:25.919
 The presence

00:57:25.919 --> 00:57:26.619
 of repentance.

00:57:26.819 --> 00:57:28.299
 And he speaks

00:57:28.299 --> 00:57:28.659
 about

00:57:28.659 --> 00:57:31.039
 this anger,

00:57:31.279 --> 00:57:31.500
 okay,

00:57:31.500 --> 00:57:33.440
 this indignation.

00:57:34.000 --> 00:57:34.760
 And indignation

00:57:34.760 --> 00:57:36.219
 is another word

00:57:36.219 --> 00:57:37.219
 for anger.

00:57:38.300 --> 00:57:39.079
 And so,

00:57:39.179 --> 00:57:40.079
 this is just describing

00:57:40.079 --> 00:57:43.300
 how a person

00:57:43.300 --> 00:57:43.960
 feels

00:57:43.960 --> 00:57:44.980
 once they come

00:57:44.980 --> 00:57:45.440
 to terms

00:57:45.440 --> 00:57:47.000
 with their sin.

00:57:47.800 --> 00:57:48.059
 Like,

00:57:48.440 --> 00:57:49.219
 you can even remember

00:57:49.219 --> 00:57:50.179
 in the example

00:57:50.179 --> 00:57:50.739
 of David,

00:57:50.840 --> 00:57:51.059
 right?

00:57:51.519 --> 00:57:51.840
 Remember,

00:57:52.099 --> 00:57:53.219
 David confronts,

00:57:53.619 --> 00:57:54.579
 or Nathan confronts

00:57:54.579 --> 00:57:54.880
 David

00:57:54.880 --> 00:57:56.940
 about his sin.

00:57:57.260 --> 00:57:57.820
 Remember,

00:57:57.820 --> 00:57:59.480
 what illustration

00:57:59.480 --> 00:58:01.220
 or what story

00:58:01.220 --> 00:58:02.780
 does Nathan tell

00:58:02.780 --> 00:58:03.220
 David?

00:58:03.820 --> 00:58:04.080
 Remember?

00:58:06.480 --> 00:58:06.960
 Okay,

00:58:07.080 --> 00:58:07.640
 a man with a sheep.

00:58:09.700 --> 00:58:09.980
 Okay.

00:58:09.980 --> 00:58:10.039
 Okay.

00:58:10.039 --> 00:58:24.619
 Okay,

00:58:24.900 --> 00:58:25.139
 good.

00:58:25.199 --> 00:58:26.059
 He takes that sheep,

00:58:26.300 --> 00:58:26.900
 he claims it

00:58:26.900 --> 00:58:27.500
 for his own,

00:58:28.039 --> 00:58:29.579
 and even though

00:58:29.579 --> 00:58:30.480
 he's got all

00:58:30.480 --> 00:58:31.320
 of these sheep,

00:58:32.019 --> 00:58:33.119
 he takes the one

00:58:33.119 --> 00:58:34.920
 from the poor

00:58:34.920 --> 00:58:35.519
 little farmer

00:58:35.519 --> 00:58:36.400
 down the road

00:58:36.400 --> 00:58:37.279
 who doesn't have

00:58:37.279 --> 00:58:37.639
 any sheep.

00:58:37.759 --> 00:58:38.119
 He just has

00:58:38.119 --> 00:58:38.659
 this,

00:58:38.719 --> 00:58:39.099
 that one,

00:58:39.259 --> 00:58:39.480
 right?

00:58:39.679 --> 00:58:40.559
 And how does

00:58:40.559 --> 00:58:41.759
 David feel

00:58:41.759 --> 00:58:42.779
 when he hears

00:58:42.779 --> 00:58:43.819
 that example?

00:58:45.500 --> 00:58:46.019
 Anger,

00:58:46.239 --> 00:58:46.440
 right?

00:58:47.000 --> 00:58:47.559
 And he's like,

00:58:48.199 --> 00:58:49.119
 I'm going to

00:58:49.119 --> 00:58:49.799
 rephrase this

00:58:49.799 --> 00:58:50.339
 because I don't

00:58:50.339 --> 00:58:51.099
 remember the exact

00:58:51.099 --> 00:58:52.059
 phraseology,

00:58:52.359 --> 00:58:53.779
 but may it be

00:58:53.779 --> 00:58:54.819
 an even more,

00:58:55.119 --> 00:58:55.559
 I'm going to

00:58:55.559 --> 00:58:56.339
 kill that guy,

00:58:56.559 --> 00:58:57.039
 right?

00:58:57.659 --> 00:58:59.179
 Because this is

00:58:59.179 --> 00:59:00.420
 unacceptable in Israel.

00:59:01.259 --> 00:59:02.639
 And then Nathan

00:59:02.639 --> 00:59:03.059
 says,

00:59:03.239 --> 00:59:03.420
 what?

00:59:04.179 --> 00:59:05.099
 You are the man.

00:59:06.839 --> 00:59:07.619
 You're the man.

00:59:08.119 --> 00:59:12.059
 And not only

00:59:12.059 --> 00:59:13.259
 was there a sense

00:59:13.259 --> 00:59:14.960
 of reality

00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:16.000
 that sunk in,

00:59:17.239 --> 00:59:18.199
 but that kind

00:59:18.199 --> 00:59:18.679
 of anger

00:59:18.679 --> 00:59:19.539
 that David felt

00:59:19.539 --> 00:59:20.679
 about that sin

00:59:20.679 --> 00:59:21.980
 is how we should

00:59:21.980 --> 00:59:23.319
 feel about that sin

00:59:23.319 --> 00:59:24.179
 in our own lives.

00:59:25.039 --> 00:59:25.539
 God,

00:59:25.659 --> 00:59:27.699
 I hate this sin.

00:59:28.559 --> 00:59:29.599
 I hate what it's

00:59:29.599 --> 00:59:30.279
 doing to me.

00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:31.719
 I hate what it's

00:59:31.719 --> 00:59:32.319
 doing to the people

00:59:32.319 --> 00:59:32.920
 around me.

00:59:33.920 --> 00:59:35.500
 I hate kind of

00:59:35.500 --> 00:59:36.440
 the consequences

00:59:36.440 --> 00:59:37.480
 and the implications

00:59:37.480 --> 00:59:39.340
 of how this has

00:59:39.340 --> 00:59:41.420
 disrupted ministry

00:59:41.420 --> 00:59:42.719
 and family

00:59:42.719 --> 00:59:43.820
 and community

00:59:43.820 --> 00:59:44.940
 and perhaps have

00:59:44.940 --> 00:59:45.719
 robbed you

00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:46.820
 of opportunities

00:59:46.820 --> 00:59:48.940
 to serve.

00:59:49.320 --> 00:59:49.740
 It's maybe

00:59:49.740 --> 00:59:50.619
 tarnished your

00:59:50.619 --> 00:59:51.199
 reputation

00:59:51.199 --> 00:59:52.500
 and taken away

00:59:52.500 --> 00:59:53.519
 some of those

00:59:53.519 --> 00:59:54.519
 opportunities that

00:59:54.519 --> 00:59:55.079
 you have

00:59:55.079 --> 00:59:56.059
 to speak into

00:59:56.059 --> 00:59:56.599
 the lives of

00:59:56.599 --> 00:59:56.880
 others.

00:59:56.880 --> 00:59:57.280
 God,

00:59:57.340 --> 00:59:58.639
 I hate that my

00:59:58.639 --> 00:59:59.760
 sin has done

00:59:59.760 --> 01:00:00.159
 this.

01:00:00.820 --> 01:00:01.219
 Oh God,

01:00:01.300 --> 01:00:02.039
 please forgive me.

01:00:03.519 --> 01:00:06.599
 Here's the beauty

01:00:06.599 --> 01:00:06.880
 though.

01:00:07.980 --> 01:00:08.679
 The beauty is

01:00:08.679 --> 01:00:10.319
 that God can

01:00:10.319 --> 01:00:12.980
 redeem the years

01:00:12.980 --> 01:00:13.679
 the locusts have

01:00:13.679 --> 01:00:13.880
 eaten,

01:00:14.119 --> 01:00:14.319
 right?

01:00:15.139 --> 01:00:16.039
 We have a

01:00:16.039 --> 01:00:17.139
 redeeming,

01:00:18.219 --> 01:00:19.059
 restoring kind

01:00:19.059 --> 01:00:19.440
 of God.

01:00:20.759 --> 01:00:21.839
 But it should

01:00:21.839 --> 01:00:22.639
 lead us to anger.

01:00:23.199 --> 01:00:23.360
 God,

01:00:23.420 --> 01:00:24.420
 I hate my sin.

01:00:25.839 --> 01:00:26.699
 I'm broken

01:00:26.699 --> 01:00:27.639
 over it.

01:00:29.059 --> 01:00:30.259
 I don't want this

01:00:30.259 --> 01:00:31.000
 to be true of me.

01:00:31.139 --> 01:00:31.960
 I hate this.

01:00:31.960 --> 01:00:33.920
 Next is

01:00:33.920 --> 01:00:35.119
 the presence

01:00:35.119 --> 01:00:36.599
 of holy fear.

01:00:37.500 --> 01:00:37.860
 He says,

01:00:38.039 --> 01:00:38.440
 what fear?

01:00:39.199 --> 01:00:39.760
 What fear?

01:00:40.440 --> 01:00:42.539
 And I think

01:00:42.539 --> 01:00:43.860
 this is reverence

01:00:43.860 --> 01:00:45.039
 for God

01:00:45.039 --> 01:00:47.000
 but I think

01:00:47.000 --> 01:00:47.619
 it's more than

01:00:47.619 --> 01:00:48.240
 just reverence

01:00:48.240 --> 01:00:48.659
 for God.

01:00:49.519 --> 01:00:50.280
 I think it's

01:00:50.280 --> 01:00:51.260
 like that feeling

01:00:51.260 --> 01:00:52.220
 that you have

01:00:52.220 --> 01:00:53.159
 when you've been

01:00:53.159 --> 01:00:53.559
 caught.

01:00:54.240 --> 01:00:54.420
 Like,

01:00:55.159 --> 01:00:55.480
 you know,

01:00:55.699 --> 01:00:57.360
 for the adults

01:00:57.360 --> 01:00:57.980
 in the room,

01:00:58.480 --> 01:00:59.280
 you're driving

01:00:59.280 --> 01:00:59.960
 down the road,

01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:00.400
 you're going a little

01:01:00.400 --> 01:01:01.460
 faster than you should

01:01:01.460 --> 01:01:01.900
 and you see

01:01:01.900 --> 01:01:03.619
 those flashing

01:01:03.619 --> 01:01:04.139
 lights,

01:01:04.639 --> 01:01:04.780
 okay?

01:01:04.860 --> 01:01:05.059
 You're like,

01:01:05.139 --> 01:01:05.440
 oh,

01:01:05.820 --> 01:01:07.260
 that sinking

01:01:07.260 --> 01:01:08.199
 feeling you get,

01:01:08.320 --> 01:01:08.539
 right?

01:01:08.940 --> 01:01:09.360
 Kind of that,

01:01:09.480 --> 01:01:10.260
 oh no,

01:01:10.619 --> 01:01:11.679
 I feel terrible.

01:01:12.019 --> 01:01:13.019
 That kind of fear

01:01:13.019 --> 01:01:13.659
 down in the,

01:01:13.780 --> 01:01:15.960
 you know,

01:01:16.099 --> 01:01:16.840
 down here

01:01:16.840 --> 01:01:17.500
 in the parts

01:01:17.500 --> 01:01:17.840
 of your,

01:01:18.000 --> 01:01:18.220
 right?

01:01:18.679 --> 01:01:19.159
 And then,

01:01:19.880 --> 01:01:20.119
 you know,

01:01:20.199 --> 01:01:21.059
 for those of you

01:01:21.059 --> 01:01:21.740
 who are teenagers

01:01:21.740 --> 01:01:22.300
 or kids

01:01:22.300 --> 01:01:24.500
 and you're doing

01:01:24.500 --> 01:01:25.240
 something you know

01:01:25.240 --> 01:01:25.920
 you're not supposed

01:01:25.920 --> 01:01:26.380
 to do,

01:01:26.539 --> 01:01:27.559
 you get caught,

01:01:28.059 --> 01:01:28.400
 right?

01:01:28.619 --> 01:01:29.019
 And,

01:01:29.639 --> 01:01:30.099
 oh,

01:01:30.099 --> 01:01:31.360
 that fear

01:01:31.360 --> 01:01:33.000
 down here

01:01:33.000 --> 01:01:34.079
 in this part,

01:01:34.299 --> 01:01:34.519
 right?

01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:35.279
 You feel it,

01:01:35.360 --> 01:01:35.860
 you know it,

01:01:35.920 --> 01:01:36.079
 like,

01:01:36.199 --> 01:01:36.500
 oh,

01:01:36.699 --> 01:01:37.380
 that's the kind

01:01:37.380 --> 01:01:37.619
 of fear

01:01:37.619 --> 01:01:38.019
 we're talking

01:01:38.019 --> 01:01:38.299
 about.

01:01:41.199 --> 01:01:41.980
 So that,

01:01:42.539 --> 01:01:43.659
 I don't ever

01:01:43.659 --> 01:01:44.199
 want to do this

01:01:44.199 --> 01:01:44.839
 again because I

01:01:44.839 --> 01:01:45.079
 hate,

01:01:45.860 --> 01:01:47.019
 I hate that feeling

01:01:47.019 --> 01:01:48.199
 of fear.

01:01:48.299 --> 01:01:49.400
 I want to live

01:01:49.400 --> 01:01:50.619
 in the present

01:01:50.619 --> 01:01:51.360
 reality

01:01:51.360 --> 01:01:53.019
 of the fear

01:01:53.019 --> 01:01:53.559
 of God.

01:01:53.920 --> 01:01:54.079
 That,

01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:54.339
 that,

01:01:54.339 --> 01:01:54.599
 that,

01:01:54.599 --> 01:01:55.539
 that holy

01:01:55.539 --> 01:01:57.219
 fear of God

01:01:57.219 --> 01:01:58.460
 helps to preserve

01:01:58.460 --> 01:01:59.400
 me and carry

01:01:59.400 --> 01:02:00.159
 me and,

01:02:00.159 --> 01:02:00.360
 and,

01:02:00.360 --> 01:02:01.079
 and point my

01:02:01.079 --> 01:02:01.579
 life in the

01:02:01.579 --> 01:02:02.179
 right direction.

01:02:03.619 --> 01:02:04.039
 This is number

01:02:04.039 --> 01:02:04.380
 four,

01:02:04.500 --> 01:02:05.079
 a passion

01:02:05.079 --> 01:02:06.199
 to restore

01:02:06.199 --> 01:02:07.320
 broken relationships.

01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:08.019
 This longing

01:02:08.019 --> 01:02:09.059
 that he refers

01:02:09.059 --> 01:02:09.539
 to here

01:02:09.539 --> 01:02:10.559
 in verse 11.

01:02:11.599 --> 01:02:12.239
 This longing

01:02:12.239 --> 01:02:12.519
 to,

01:02:12.579 --> 01:02:13.119
 to make

01:02:13.119 --> 01:02:14.380
 something right,

01:02:14.759 --> 01:02:15.079
 okay?

01:02:15.840 --> 01:02:16.239
 This,

01:02:16.360 --> 01:02:17.000
 this longing

01:02:17.000 --> 01:02:17.360
 to,

01:02:17.519 --> 01:02:18.219
 to,

01:02:18.300 --> 01:02:19.440
 to,

01:02:19.440 --> 01:02:20.460
 to restore

01:02:20.460 --> 01:02:21.320
 what was,

01:02:21.519 --> 01:02:22.380
 what was broken.

01:02:23.019 --> 01:02:23.500
 That,

01:02:23.539 --> 01:02:24.599
 that I'm not okay

01:02:24.599 --> 01:02:25.400
 with just leaving

01:02:25.400 --> 01:02:26.139
 things alone.

01:02:26.259 --> 01:02:26.819
 I'm not okay

01:02:26.819 --> 01:02:27.460
 with just

01:02:27.460 --> 01:02:29.659
 allowing the mess

01:02:29.659 --> 01:02:30.400
 to remain.

01:02:30.519 --> 01:02:30.599
 But,

01:02:30.659 --> 01:02:31.139
 but as much

01:02:31.139 --> 01:02:31.860
 as I'm able

01:02:31.860 --> 01:02:32.219
 to,

01:02:32.440 --> 01:02:33.480
 I want to restore

01:02:33.480 --> 01:02:34.579
 back what's been

01:02:34.579 --> 01:02:35.139
 taken.

01:02:35.400 --> 01:02:36.500
 I want to fix

01:02:36.500 --> 01:02:37.380
 what's been broken.

01:02:37.759 --> 01:02:39.259
 I want to restore

01:02:39.259 --> 01:02:40.279
 that relationship.

01:02:40.719 --> 01:02:41.400
 I want to do

01:02:41.400 --> 01:02:42.079
 what it takes

01:02:42.079 --> 01:02:42.339
 to,

01:02:42.440 --> 01:02:43.199
 to make sure

01:02:43.199 --> 01:02:44.119
 they recognize

01:02:44.119 --> 01:02:44.839
 that,

01:02:44.920 --> 01:02:45.920
 that I'm not okay

01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:46.460
 with what's,

01:02:46.539 --> 01:02:47.239
 with what's happened.

01:02:48.539 --> 01:02:49.259
 And as much

01:02:49.259 --> 01:02:49.759
 as I'm able to,

01:02:49.799 --> 01:02:50.380
 to restore that

01:02:50.380 --> 01:02:51.559
 broken relationship.

01:02:52.699 --> 01:02:53.559
 This heart

01:02:53.559 --> 01:02:54.539
 for zeal.

01:02:54.739 --> 01:02:55.199
 You know,

01:02:55.900 --> 01:02:57.099
 we've talked about

01:02:57.099 --> 01:02:58.779
 zeal a lot

01:02:58.779 --> 01:02:59.239
 already.

01:02:59.239 --> 01:02:59.900
 And,

01:02:59.960 --> 01:03:00.679
 and we see

01:03:00.679 --> 01:03:01.820
 this zeal

01:03:01.820 --> 01:03:02.420
 kind of working

01:03:02.420 --> 01:03:03.019
 its way through

01:03:03.019 --> 01:03:03.860
 a lot of the

01:03:03.860 --> 01:03:04.539
 elements of,

01:03:04.840 --> 01:03:05.219
 of,

01:03:05.320 --> 01:03:06.940
 of this,

01:03:07.380 --> 01:03:08.259
 of this passage.

01:03:08.779 --> 01:03:08.820
 But,

01:03:08.880 --> 01:03:09.320
 but here,

01:03:09.599 --> 01:03:10.519
 zeal and just

01:03:10.519 --> 01:03:12.139
 helping to

01:03:12.139 --> 01:03:12.920
 refer to

01:03:12.920 --> 01:03:13.500
 passionate

01:03:13.500 --> 01:03:15.039
 desire for

01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:15.519
 justice.

01:03:15.519 --> 01:03:16.139
 That's really

01:03:16.139 --> 01:03:16.519
 what this,

01:03:16.519 --> 01:03:17.420
 this Greek word

01:03:17.420 --> 01:03:17.900
 means.

01:03:18.860 --> 01:03:19.599
 Not just

01:03:19.599 --> 01:03:21.539
 punishment

01:03:21.539 --> 01:03:22.599
 here,

01:03:23.300 --> 01:03:23.400
 but,

01:03:23.880 --> 01:03:24.179
 but,

01:03:24.460 --> 01:03:25.079
 or self

01:03:25.079 --> 01:03:25.759
 punishment

01:03:25.759 --> 01:03:26.139
 that he's

01:03:26.139 --> 01:03:26.800
 referring to.

01:03:27.380 --> 01:03:27.480
 But,

01:03:27.539 --> 01:03:28.000
 but so,

01:03:28.259 --> 01:03:28.940
 so much more,

01:03:29.059 --> 01:03:29.500
 actually I'm

01:03:29.500 --> 01:03:29.679
 moving,

01:03:29.900 --> 01:03:30.079
 sorry,

01:03:30.219 --> 01:03:30.500
 that's,

01:03:30.900 --> 01:03:31.639
 I said zeal,

01:03:31.820 --> 01:03:32.259
 I'm on,

01:03:32.380 --> 01:03:34.320
 I'm on a six,

01:03:34.519 --> 01:03:35.480
 pursuit of justice

01:03:35.480 --> 01:03:36.059
 and punishment.

01:03:37.500 --> 01:03:38.300
 The punishment

01:03:38.300 --> 01:03:38.820
 doesn't mean

01:03:38.820 --> 01:03:39.719
 self punishment,

01:03:39.719 --> 01:03:40.199
 but a,

01:03:40.199 --> 01:03:40.960
 a willingness

01:03:40.960 --> 01:03:41.699
 to make things

01:03:41.699 --> 01:03:42.079
 right.

01:03:42.619 --> 01:03:43.420
 To take whatever

01:03:43.420 --> 01:03:44.079
 steps that are

01:03:44.079 --> 01:03:44.880
 necessary to fix

01:03:44.880 --> 01:03:45.440
 the damage.

01:03:46.380 --> 01:03:47.199
 You accept the

01:03:47.199 --> 01:03:47.719
 consequences.

01:03:48.719 --> 01:03:49.119
 You're willing

01:03:49.119 --> 01:03:49.759
 to come clean.

01:03:49.760 --> 01:03:51.020
 And,

01:03:51.200 --> 01:03:52.740
 you know,

01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:53.920
 I think

01:03:53.920 --> 01:03:56.640
 a lot of

01:03:56.640 --> 01:03:57.140
 times

01:03:57.140 --> 01:03:58.900
 when we feel

01:03:58.900 --> 01:03:59.220
 like we've

01:03:59.220 --> 01:03:59.720
 gotten away

01:03:59.720 --> 01:04:00.320
 with something

01:04:00.320 --> 01:04:02.200
 and maybe

01:04:02.200 --> 01:04:02.760
 we have

01:04:02.760 --> 01:04:03.160
 gotten away

01:04:03.160 --> 01:04:03.740
 with something,

01:04:05.100 --> 01:04:05.260
 the,

01:04:05.380 --> 01:04:05.880
 one of the,

01:04:05.880 --> 01:04:06.260
 one of the

01:04:06.260 --> 01:04:07.320
 riskiest things

01:04:07.320 --> 01:04:07.900
 that we can

01:04:07.900 --> 01:04:08.380
 consider

01:04:08.380 --> 01:04:12.100
 when we're,

01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:13.440
 when we

01:04:13.440 --> 01:04:14.200
 come to terms

01:04:14.200 --> 01:04:15.020
 with our sin

01:04:15.020 --> 01:04:16.240
 is now

01:04:16.240 --> 01:04:17.100
 coming clean.

01:04:18.000 --> 01:04:18.720
 Because we

01:04:18.720 --> 01:04:19.340
 feel like

01:04:19.340 --> 01:04:19.900
 even though

01:04:19.900 --> 01:04:20.280
 God has

01:04:20.280 --> 01:04:21.160
 convicted us

01:04:21.160 --> 01:04:22.320
 about that

01:04:22.320 --> 01:04:22.760
 sin,

01:04:23.100 --> 01:04:23.940
 if we can

01:04:23.940 --> 01:04:24.480
 keep it

01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:25.000
 private,

01:04:25.320 --> 01:04:25.940
 then we can

01:04:25.940 --> 01:04:26.800
 mitigate the

01:04:26.800 --> 01:04:27.400
 consequences.

01:04:27.559 --> 01:04:27.840
 Does that make

01:04:27.840 --> 01:04:28.120
 sense?

01:04:29.059 --> 01:04:29.220
 Right?

01:04:29.539 --> 01:04:30.120
 God may have

01:04:30.120 --> 01:04:30.840
 convicted me

01:04:30.840 --> 01:04:31.559
 about this

01:04:31.559 --> 01:04:32.500
 that as I've

01:04:32.500 --> 01:04:33.079
 been praying,

01:04:33.200 --> 01:04:33.539
 oh Lord,

01:04:33.660 --> 01:04:34.820
 please reveal

01:04:34.820 --> 01:04:35.440
 to me the

01:04:35.440 --> 01:04:36.480
 areas that

01:04:36.480 --> 01:04:37.539
 I've sinned

01:04:37.539 --> 01:04:38.280
 against you.

01:04:38.400 --> 01:04:39.420
 And he does.

01:04:40.079 --> 01:04:40.440
 And you're like,

01:04:40.539 --> 01:04:40.900
 oh boy,

01:04:41.260 --> 01:04:41.900
 ho, ho, ho.

01:04:42.440 --> 01:04:43.559
 I haven't had

01:04:43.559 --> 01:04:44.280
 to pay for that

01:04:44.280 --> 01:04:44.600
 yet.

01:04:44.599 --> 01:04:46.880
 I haven't

01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:47.420
 had to,

01:04:47.420 --> 01:04:48.639
 I haven't

01:04:48.639 --> 01:04:49.199
 had to

01:04:49.199 --> 01:04:50.559
 resolve

01:04:50.559 --> 01:04:52.279
 the potential

01:04:52.279 --> 01:04:54.219
 collateral

01:04:54.219 --> 01:04:55.139
 damage of

01:04:55.139 --> 01:04:55.679
 that yet.

01:04:55.940 --> 01:04:56.719
 Because they

01:04:56.719 --> 01:04:57.099
 don't know

01:04:57.099 --> 01:04:57.639
 about that

01:04:57.639 --> 01:04:58.159
 yet.

01:04:58.639 --> 01:04:59.400
 And so,

01:04:59.659 --> 01:05:00.699
 we are

01:05:00.699 --> 01:05:01.480
 tempted then

01:05:01.480 --> 01:05:02.659
 again to

01:05:02.659 --> 01:05:03.679
 go underground

01:05:03.679 --> 01:05:05.059
 and to

01:05:05.059 --> 01:05:05.819
 complicate

01:05:05.819 --> 01:05:06.719
 the,

01:05:06.719 --> 01:05:07.839
 the fertile

01:05:07.839 --> 01:05:08.980
 soil that

01:05:08.980 --> 01:05:09.619
 God is trying

01:05:09.619 --> 01:05:10.259
 to produce

01:05:10.260 --> 01:05:10.640
 sin us

01:05:10.640 --> 01:05:11.260
 because we're

01:05:11.260 --> 01:05:12.420
 afraid of

01:05:12.420 --> 01:05:12.820
 then what

01:05:12.820 --> 01:05:13.300
 God might

01:05:13.300 --> 01:05:14.140
 allow to

01:05:14.140 --> 01:05:15.220
 happen once

01:05:15.220 --> 01:05:15.720
 that sin

01:05:15.720 --> 01:05:16.700
 comes out

01:05:16.700 --> 01:05:17.020
 into the

01:05:17.020 --> 01:05:17.380
 light.

01:05:18.060 --> 01:05:18.340
 Does that

01:05:18.340 --> 01:05:18.860
 make sense?

01:05:20.980 --> 01:05:21.940
 That's not

01:05:21.940 --> 01:05:22.220
 what a

01:05:22.220 --> 01:05:22.880
 repentant

01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:23.460
 heart does.

01:05:24.860 --> 01:05:25.520
 A repentant

01:05:25.520 --> 01:05:26.200
 heart says,

01:05:26.680 --> 01:05:27.320
 okay God,

01:05:27.860 --> 01:05:29.080
 I trust

01:05:29.080 --> 01:05:30.620
 you that

01:05:30.620 --> 01:05:31.140
 since you

01:05:31.140 --> 01:05:31.940
 have led

01:05:31.940 --> 01:05:32.300
 me to

01:05:32.300 --> 01:05:33.100
 understand

01:05:33.100 --> 01:05:33.980
 what my

01:05:33.980 --> 01:05:34.820
 sin is,

01:05:35.060 --> 01:05:35.480
 that you're

01:05:35.480 --> 01:05:36.660
 also going

01:05:36.660 --> 01:05:37.160
 to allow

01:05:37.160 --> 01:05:37.580
 me to

01:05:37.580 --> 01:05:38.140
 recognize

01:05:38.140 --> 01:05:39.800
 that the

01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:40.620
 consequences

01:05:40.620 --> 01:05:41.180
 that you

01:05:41.180 --> 01:05:42.360
 bring into

01:05:42.360 --> 01:05:43.560
 my world

01:05:43.560 --> 01:05:45.000
 have some

01:05:45.000 --> 01:05:45.820
 redeeming

01:05:45.820 --> 01:05:46.420
 quality to

01:05:46.420 --> 01:05:46.640
 them.

01:05:48.500 --> 01:05:49.240
 And I

01:05:49.240 --> 01:05:49.780
 trust you

01:05:49.780 --> 01:05:50.640
 to do

01:05:50.640 --> 01:05:50.820
 what's

01:05:50.820 --> 01:05:51.080
 right,

01:05:51.620 --> 01:05:52.560
 even when

01:05:52.560 --> 01:05:53.660
 I'm terrified

01:05:53.660 --> 01:05:54.700
 of what's

01:05:54.700 --> 01:05:55.000
 coming.

01:05:55.940 --> 01:05:56.560
 Make sense?

01:05:58.240 --> 01:05:59.000
 That's a

01:05:59.000 --> 01:05:59.320
 big one.

01:06:00.240 --> 01:06:00.880
 Yes.

01:06:08.600 --> 01:06:09.560
 That's good.

01:06:09.800 --> 01:06:11.580
 That's good.

01:06:11.580 --> 01:06:11.580


01:06:17.519 --> 01:06:18.280
 That's good.

01:06:20.180 --> 01:06:20.700
 Amen.

01:06:21.240 --> 01:06:21.680
 Thank you,

01:06:21.740 --> 01:06:21.880
 John.

01:06:22.900 --> 01:06:23.640
 Moms and

01:06:23.640 --> 01:06:23.900
 dads,

01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:24.740
 this is kind

01:06:24.740 --> 01:06:24.900
 of what

01:06:24.900 --> 01:06:25.380
 John said,

01:06:25.820 --> 01:06:26.460
 and I

01:06:26.460 --> 01:06:27.720
 agree wholeheartedly.

01:06:28.100 --> 01:06:29.280
 You set the

01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:29.980
 course for

01:06:29.980 --> 01:06:31.019
 this in your

01:06:31.019 --> 01:06:31.340
 kids'

01:06:31.600 --> 01:06:31.920
 lives.

01:06:32.860 --> 01:06:33.720
 Because there's

01:06:33.720 --> 01:06:33.980
 a lot of

01:06:33.980 --> 01:06:35.180
 times when

01:06:35.180 --> 01:06:36.120
 Johnny comes

01:06:36.120 --> 01:06:37.039
 home and

01:06:37.039 --> 01:06:37.340
 says,

01:06:37.340 --> 01:06:37.780
 oh,

01:06:37.880 --> 01:06:38.220
 daddy,

01:06:38.539 --> 01:06:39.120
 I was

01:06:39.120 --> 01:06:39.620
 riding my

01:06:39.620 --> 01:06:39.840
 bike.

01:06:39.900 --> 01:06:40.039
 And this

01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:40.400
 is a personal

01:06:40.400 --> 01:06:40.680
 story.

01:06:40.880 --> 01:06:41.220
 I was

01:06:41.220 --> 01:06:41.800
 riding my

01:06:41.800 --> 01:06:42.260
 bike and

01:06:42.260 --> 01:06:42.700
 I ran

01:06:42.700 --> 01:06:44.059
 into so-and-so.

01:06:44.420 --> 01:06:44.640
 Like,

01:06:45.480 --> 01:06:46.240
 you're riding

01:06:46.240 --> 01:06:47.160
 down the

01:06:47.160 --> 01:06:47.640
 street on

01:06:47.640 --> 01:06:48.260
 your bicycle

01:06:48.260 --> 01:06:48.680
 and you

01:06:48.680 --> 01:06:49.400
 hit a car?

01:06:49.600 --> 01:06:49.760
 Now,

01:06:49.800 --> 01:06:50.019
 he didn't

01:06:50.019 --> 01:06:50.660
 respond that

01:06:50.660 --> 01:06:50.820
 way,

01:06:50.860 --> 01:06:50.980
 but he's

01:06:50.980 --> 01:06:51.120
 like,

01:06:51.660 --> 01:06:52.640
 how did

01:06:52.640 --> 01:06:53.220
 this happen?

01:06:54.180 --> 01:06:54.420
 Well,

01:06:54.620 --> 01:06:55.680
 you go

01:06:55.680 --> 01:06:57.079
 inspect and

01:06:57.079 --> 01:06:57.579
 the little

01:06:57.579 --> 01:06:58.780
 scratch is

01:06:58.780 --> 01:06:59.620
 hardly visible.

01:06:59.620 --> 01:07:00.079
 You're like,

01:07:00.160 --> 01:07:00.760
 I'll just

01:07:00.760 --> 01:07:01.500
 buff this out,

01:07:01.559 --> 01:07:02.200
 no problem.

01:07:02.199 --> 01:07:04.339
 But parents,

01:07:04.539 --> 01:07:04.960
 you say,

01:07:05.139 --> 01:07:05.500
 you know what?

01:07:05.639 --> 01:07:05.960
 We've got

01:07:05.960 --> 01:07:06.460
 business to

01:07:06.460 --> 01:07:06.639
 do.

01:07:07.699 --> 01:07:08.119
 You need to

01:07:08.119 --> 01:07:08.559
 tell Mrs.

01:07:08.699 --> 01:07:09.319
 Straley what

01:07:09.319 --> 01:07:09.659
 happened.

01:07:10.399 --> 01:07:10.839
 We need to

01:07:10.839 --> 01:07:11.299
 own up to

01:07:11.299 --> 01:07:11.679
 this.

01:07:12.319 --> 01:07:12.539
 Parents,

01:07:12.639 --> 01:07:13.579
 you set the

01:07:13.579 --> 01:07:14.980
 course for

01:07:14.980 --> 01:07:16.859
 true repentance

01:07:16.859 --> 01:07:17.859
 in your children's

01:07:17.859 --> 01:07:18.359
 heart when you

01:07:18.359 --> 01:07:19.159
 help them know

01:07:19.159 --> 01:07:20.199
 and embrace the

01:07:20.199 --> 01:07:20.659
 consequences.

01:07:20.819 --> 01:07:21.119
 Thank you,

01:07:21.179 --> 01:07:21.339
 John.

01:07:21.879 --> 01:07:22.219
 That is,

01:07:22.599 --> 01:07:23.239
 I'm glad we

01:07:23.239 --> 01:07:23.599
 didn't miss

01:07:23.599 --> 01:07:23.839
 that.

01:07:25.159 --> 01:07:25.419
 Wow.

01:07:26.119 --> 01:07:26.399
 Okay,

01:07:26.579 --> 01:07:26.859
 finally,

01:07:28.399 --> 01:07:28.779
 a clear

01:07:28.779 --> 01:07:29.539
 conscience and

01:07:29.539 --> 01:07:30.359
 renewed joy.

01:07:30.360 --> 01:07:32.300
 And here's

01:07:32.300 --> 01:07:32.539
 what,

01:07:33.140 --> 01:07:33.680
 here's what

01:07:33.680 --> 01:07:34.019
 Paul says,

01:07:34.079 --> 01:07:34.460
 kind of moving

01:07:34.460 --> 01:07:35.000
 back to

01:07:35.000 --> 01:07:35.559
 verse 10.

01:07:35.960 --> 01:07:36.640
 For godly

01:07:36.640 --> 01:07:37.880
 grief produces

01:07:37.880 --> 01:07:38.800
 a repentance

01:07:38.800 --> 01:07:41.280
 without regret.

01:07:42.360 --> 01:07:42.680
 Oh,

01:07:42.820 --> 01:07:43.200
 man,

01:07:43.440 --> 01:07:44.260
 there is nothing

01:07:44.260 --> 01:07:44.860
 better than a

01:07:44.860 --> 01:07:45.460
 clear conscience.

01:07:47.280 --> 01:07:47.880
 And that's,

01:07:48.019 --> 01:07:49.320
 that's the

01:07:49.320 --> 01:07:51.059
 final benefit

01:07:51.059 --> 01:07:51.900
 that we get

01:07:51.900 --> 01:07:52.860
 to enjoy

01:07:52.860 --> 01:07:54.480
 when we're

01:07:54.480 --> 01:07:55.160
 walking this

01:07:55.160 --> 01:07:55.680
 path.

01:07:55.880 --> 01:07:56.920
 This is not

01:07:56.920 --> 01:07:57.900
 only a

01:07:57.900 --> 01:07:58.660
 realigned,

01:07:58.780 --> 01:07:59.460
 recalibrated

01:07:59.460 --> 01:08:00.240
 heart in

01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:00.899
 passions that

01:08:00.899 --> 01:08:01.199
 are kind of

01:08:01.199 --> 01:08:02.819
 reset to,

01:08:02.919 --> 01:08:03.599
 to want

01:08:03.599 --> 01:08:04.379
 God and

01:08:04.379 --> 01:08:05.079
 to walk

01:08:05.079 --> 01:08:05.799
 after God,

01:08:05.939 --> 01:08:07.479
 but we

01:08:07.479 --> 01:08:08.299
 come to a

01:08:08.299 --> 01:08:08.659
 place like,

01:08:09.159 --> 01:08:09.959
 I am

01:08:09.959 --> 01:08:11.059
 finally free.

01:08:12.179 --> 01:08:13.099
 I'm free

01:08:13.099 --> 01:08:13.779
 of this.

01:08:14.459 --> 01:08:14.859
 It doesn't

01:08:14.859 --> 01:08:15.419
 have a hold

01:08:15.419 --> 01:08:16.139
 on me anymore.

01:08:18.199 --> 01:08:19.139
 And that's,

01:08:19.260 --> 01:08:20.239
 that's the

01:08:20.239 --> 01:08:20.599
 benefit.

01:08:21.539 --> 01:08:21.819
 So,

01:08:22.059 --> 01:08:22.739
 in just a

01:08:22.739 --> 01:08:23.199
 couple minutes,

01:08:23.399 --> 01:08:24.219
 I want to

01:08:24.219 --> 01:08:24.859
 give you a

01:08:24.859 --> 01:08:25.819
 shot here,

01:08:25.920 --> 01:08:26.159
 okay?

01:08:26.899 --> 01:08:27.539
 Here's a final

01:08:27.539 --> 01:08:28.079
 little piece

01:08:28.079 --> 01:08:28.539
 for you,

01:08:28.539 --> 01:08:29.239
 okay?

01:08:29.680 --> 01:08:30.619
 This closing

01:08:30.619 --> 01:08:31.760
 personal commitment,

01:08:32.260 --> 01:08:32.479
 right?

01:08:32.920 --> 01:08:33.079
 So,

01:08:33.159 --> 01:08:33.739
 look at this,

01:08:34.279 --> 01:08:34.760
 fill in the

01:08:34.760 --> 01:08:35.140
 blanks,

01:08:35.140 --> 01:08:35.319
 okay,

01:08:35.380 --> 01:08:35.720
 for me.

01:08:36.239 --> 01:08:36.460
 Lord,

01:08:36.519 --> 01:08:37.279
 when I feel

01:08:37.279 --> 01:08:38.399
 blank,

01:08:38.960 --> 01:08:39.579
 what is that

01:08:39.579 --> 01:08:40.180
 emotion that

01:08:40.180 --> 01:08:40.840
 comes to your

01:08:40.840 --> 01:08:41.100
 mind?

01:08:41.100 --> 01:08:42.000
 When I feel

01:08:42.000 --> 01:08:42.720
 this way,

01:08:43.359 --> 01:08:44.180
 I usually

01:08:44.180 --> 01:08:45.000
 move towards

01:08:45.000 --> 01:08:45.619
 this.

01:08:46.460 --> 01:08:46.960
 When I feel

01:08:46.960 --> 01:08:47.220
 this,

01:08:47.279 --> 01:08:47.619
 when I feel

01:08:47.619 --> 01:08:47.979
 anxious,

01:08:48.140 --> 01:08:48.519
 when I feel

01:08:48.519 --> 01:08:49.000
 fearful,

01:08:49.300 --> 01:08:49.899
 when I feel

01:08:49.899 --> 01:08:50.680
 happy,

01:08:51.039 --> 01:08:51.680
 when I feel

01:08:51.680 --> 01:08:52.500
 frustrated,

01:08:52.979 --> 01:08:53.760
 then it moves

01:08:53.760 --> 01:08:54.199
 me towards

01:08:54.199 --> 01:08:54.579
 this.

01:08:54.579 --> 01:08:55.220
 But Lord,

01:08:55.319 --> 01:08:55.939
 this week,

01:08:56.140 --> 01:08:56.859
 I want to

01:08:56.859 --> 01:08:57.300
 commit to

01:08:57.300 --> 01:08:58.079
 do this

01:08:58.079 --> 01:08:58.439
 instead,

01:08:59.119 --> 01:09:00.039
 so I can

01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:00.479
 live in

01:09:00.479 --> 01:09:01.019
 purity and

01:09:01.019 --> 01:09:01.399
 grow in

01:09:01.399 --> 01:09:02.079
 worship of

01:09:02.079 --> 01:09:02.199
 you.

01:09:02.699 --> 01:09:03.460
 Just take a

01:09:03.460 --> 01:09:04.019
 couple seconds,

01:09:04.739 --> 01:09:05.119
 fill in those

01:09:05.119 --> 01:09:05.619
 blanks,

01:09:06.119 --> 01:09:06.619
 and then I'll

01:09:06.619 --> 01:09:07.079
 pray for us.

01:09:17.399 --> 01:09:17.800
 Father,

01:09:17.899 --> 01:09:18.319
 we thank you

01:09:18.319 --> 01:09:19.699
 that you have

01:09:19.699 --> 01:09:20.359
 given us

01:09:20.359 --> 01:09:23.119
 hearts that

01:09:23.119 --> 01:09:24.079
 can move in

01:09:24.079 --> 01:09:24.319
 the right

01:09:24.319 --> 01:09:24.699
 direction.

01:09:26.399 --> 01:09:26.699
 And so,

01:09:26.779 --> 01:09:26.960
 Father,

01:09:27.099 --> 01:09:27.599
 we pray for

01:09:27.599 --> 01:09:27.960
 your help.

01:09:28.239 --> 01:09:29.260
 We pray that

01:09:29.260 --> 01:09:30.260
 your Holy Spirit

01:09:30.260 --> 01:09:31.260
 will guide our

01:09:31.260 --> 01:09:31.699
 lives,

01:09:32.000 --> 01:09:32.579
 that will make

01:09:32.579 --> 01:09:33.140
 us new.

01:09:34.359 --> 01:09:34.760
 And God,

01:09:34.800 --> 01:09:35.739
 in every part

01:09:35.739 --> 01:09:36.300
 of life,

01:09:36.420 --> 01:09:37.119
 whether it's

01:09:37.119 --> 01:09:39.199
 in academics,

01:09:39.559 --> 01:09:40.140
 or it's in

01:09:40.140 --> 01:09:40.599
 work,

01:09:41.340 --> 01:09:42.619
 whether it's

01:09:42.619 --> 01:09:43.479
 in private,

01:09:44.579 --> 01:09:45.880
 or in public,

01:09:46.099 --> 01:09:46.239
 Lord,

01:09:46.340 --> 01:09:47.500
 wherever we are

01:09:47.500 --> 01:09:48.319
 and whatever we

01:09:48.319 --> 01:09:48.739
 feel,

01:09:49.099 --> 01:09:49.199
 Lord,

01:09:49.220 --> 01:09:49.760
 I pray that we

01:09:49.760 --> 01:09:50.279
 would bring

01:09:50.279 --> 01:09:51.260
 those feelings

01:09:51.260 --> 01:09:51.779
 to you,

01:09:52.119 --> 01:09:52.479
 and that it

01:09:52.479 --> 01:09:52.899
 would lead us

01:09:52.899 --> 01:09:53.259
 to your greater

01:09:53.259 --> 01:09:53.579
 worship.

01:09:54.259 --> 01:09:54.759
 We pray these

01:09:54.759 --> 01:09:55.259
 things in Jesus'

01:09:55.439 --> 01:09:55.619
 name.

01:09:56.139 --> 01:09:56.359
 Amen.

01:09:57.199 --> 01:09:57.639
 All right.

01:09:58.139 --> 01:09:58.779
 Thanks for coming,

01:09:58.979 --> 01:09:59.779
 and we hope to

01:09:59.779 --> 01:10:00.479
 pick this up again

01:10:00.479 --> 01:10:01.399
 next week.
