UN-BECOME to BECOME, OUR NORMAL v. GOD'S NORMAL

"Love never fails." 1 Corinthians 13.8 NLT

7. Rest

Stay connected to God’s rest. Take the weight off...

A rhythm of connection with God. Recharge. Peace.

Un-become to become!

Our normal is the opposite of all of these. We would sometimes rather do things on our own rather than be connected, be obedient, grow. We look to our own understanding, our own strength. We live according to our own truth, and we work hard to stay on top. Our normal is not good enough We need to UN-BECOME in order to BECOME what God’s normal is - staying connected to God through obedience, His plan, His Word, His Strength, His Grace, anointing, and love, and resting in His presence.

The word in 1 Corinthians 13.8 for "fails" is pepto, meaning "falls." Love will be the last thing standing. It will never fall or be crushed under the weight of hate and sin.
