013: !!!!URGENT!!!! // How's Your Urgency Meter?
Is your urgency radar out of order? Are you surrounded by urgent people?
If you find yourself turning to quick fixes, urgency may be a root in your life you need to address.
Negative emotion can lead to addiction, but there’s also an urgency addiction.
What comes first, addiction or urgency?? Definitely goes back to impulsivity.
Are your thoughts positive or negative? Hold onto hope, you CAN renew your mind!
Boundaries are so important— they bring accountability.
John 11 — The story of Lazarus
Lazarus was sick and Jesus was sent news about it.
V6 - Jesus is in no rush to get there.
When Jesus gets there, Lazarus is dead and He is approached with so much emotion.
Jesus didn’t give into the urgency, and He also wasn’t bothered by it.
Jesus modeled peace in this situation.
John 16:33 — peace is available to you.
The world’s definition of peace is tranquility/quiet. You may not have that in this world. God’s definition of peace is to be at rest. He has overcome and He’s already won the victory.
We recommend the book: To Hell With The Hustle - Jefferson Bethke
What’s the point? If you aren’t connecting with the Holy Spirit and community, does what your doing have a point??
John 14:25-27 — you have a helper, the Holy Spirit
HS gives you peace, not as the world gives, but HIS peace
420 times peace is mentioned in the Bible; peace is important!
Peace is powerful.
Peace is contagious.
Where are you going when you feel urgency?
Are you running to others or are you running to Jesus?
When emotions are high, clarity of thinking is low.
Don’t make permanent decisions based on temporary emotions.
