I have waited to post until late in the week because I have tried to reconstruct the message from last week Sunday. Let me explain.
During the week I start early to do work in the actual text of Scripture...usually some Monday and most of Tuesday. Wednesday is devoted to other lessons and such. Thursday I usually hit the transfer from text to sermon. Last Thursday was unique because nothing happened. I sat and stared at paper most of the day. Friday came and went and still no sermon. I pretty much got sick to my stomach and thought ok...what's going on. Saturday passed and I got sicker. It is very unlike me to step in the pulpit without a reduced sermon text biut Sunday morning came and I had my text work notes and that was it. So I openend my mouth and the sermon came out.
I trust it goes without saying but here I am saying it...I called upon the Lord much from Thursday through Sunday...and was trusting Him as best I knew how. I have no idea what most people thought of the message. I did recieve some feedback and was grateful for it.
As I have tried to reconstruct what was said I can't. I could post my text notes but that probably wouldn't make sense. So I am going to leave this entry blank.
The long and short of it is that as we follow Christ our lives are characterized by a continual and consistent separation unto God in all areas and aspects of life. This is the way the King intended His citizens to be and it flows from His complete 'otherness.'
