Do you assume?

When you are talking to someone, do you think they can relate and they are like you? I totally have!!!

Let's talk today about what we assume and how it affects the relationships we have with other people.

What are we assuming? Is it the best or worst of a person?

I was breaking down Matthew 7 today.

Let's talk about it!!!!

We have been talking about God's will this week and it just occurred to me that I should break down what a Will is and how that impacts us discerning God's will.

Will: The power of conscious, deliberate action; the faculty by which the relational mind makes choice of its ends of action, and directs the energies in carrying out its determinations. 3: strong determination: practical enthusiasm; energy of character.

Wise: Seeing clearly what is right and just: having sound judgement concerning ones highest interests and in ones own conduct choosing the best end and the best means for reaching that end.

Let's tie all this together.

Today let's talk about Psalm 46 and how we can live by these words.

What knowledge are you using to build up yourself in God?

How do you see yourself?

How do you see God?

How do the people around you communicate God to you?

All these dynamics impact your ability to hear God in your life.

Let's talk about it.

What is the will of God?

Why is this important to know?

Let's talk about it.

How do we talk to them?

How does our view of them affect our communication?

Are people starving under leadership that doesn't see the value in the flock that is with them?
