Meltdown
Who are we?
· Every person in this room has experienced our own spiritual meltdown at some point or another.
o We’ve said something that we regretted immediately.
o We’ve done something that we hoped no one would find out about.
o We’ve felt guilty because of something we thought or hoped for.
o And we’ve fled to our own desert.
§ We stopped going to church.
§ We stopped praying.
§ We stopped living in faith and began living in fear.
o Only to find out that God is not done with us yet.
§ It wasn’t a burning bush that He spoke to you through…but a friend from church who missed you and called to check in on you.
§ It wasn’t the voice of God in a cave…but it was the podcast of a sermon that you happened to turn on.
§ It wasn’t breakfast on the shore…but it was an opportunity to share Jesus with someone that you have no doubt was put into your path by God Himself.
§ God’s response is still the same today as it was for Moses, Elijah and Peter.
· He loves you.
· He has a purpose for you.
· And He has never given up on you even though you have given up on yourself.
