Sanctified Disatisfaction

Pastor Cook has been a guest speaker at Bryan's chapel last night and this morning. He also will be speaking tonight in about twenty minutes. He said something last night that struck a chord with me: "sanctified disatisfaction".

And what that mean is - as we grow in Christ, as He sanctifies us, we should not be satisfied with what we have gained spiritually but rather we should be disatisfied with other parts of us that need growth, renewal or cleansing.

Instead of settling for one improvement and thinking that we're complete for a while we need to realize that there's always something that needs to be cleaned by God. We allow ourselves to be satisfied way to easily!

Hey:

Go watch this video. It's about an hour long...so if you don't want to watch it all just listen. Or split it up - thirty minutes, take a break, the last thirty minutes.

This speaker is incredibly bold.

Warm Up Before Attempting to Run!

A change from what I've written in previous posts. This is my lil way of hoping to inspire a generation to make a change for Christ and that a lil change is still change. =)

Ideally what would your world look like?

What would you change if you could?

Describe to me in complete sentences what you would do

Let's talk about it for a while

Let's think about it while we're idle

Let's dream about it till we die

Or we could wake from our sleep

Break out of the comatose state we're stuck in

And change the world

Even a small change is change

Everyone needs to warm up before they run

Let's start the warm up process...

Are you ready to run?

If God took seven days to create and make the world

Why should we expect to change it so quickly?

People take time to understand change before they accept it

While they're thinking we can be planning

While they're thinking we can be preparing

While they're thinking we can be praying

And it might not hurt to bring a pair of running shoes

Even a small change is change

Everyone needs to warm up before they run

We're just warming up...

Before the big race

Ok let's go!

The dirt path lays before us

Waiting to be paved

Changes that need to be made are among us

Let's leave the out-of-bounds

And start runnin' this race

Go go!
