ILMS24 – YA: Still

Release Date: May 7

Psalm 46:10-11

Let's take a poll –

How many of you want to live your best life?

How many of you want to live a junky life, or even a so-so life?

What do people need for their best life? (Consider as a group or on your own.)

Maslow's Hierarchy of needs

https://www.simplypsychology.org/maslow.html

We look at this list and can see some of our problems in the spaces on the pyramid

• Where are my friends? Do I have them?
• Worried about money for college or even food and our homes
• We might struggle with some sadness or depression
• What the heck am I here for? What should I do with my life?
• In down moments, we wonder if we're really worthwhile, if we're loved.

We start to feel anxious, certainly don't feel like we're living that best life.

Our #1 Need is…knowing God.

Knowing we have a real present God.

Our pyramid forgot its foundation.

Let's find the foundation in Psalm 46:10-11:

"Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"

1. 11 - The Lordof hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Here's the thought I want you to remember today:

God has no needs. He just wants to know you.

And God is really our only need.

To get to the Stillness - less anxiety, feeling better, less overload and stress, and frustration, we need to Know God, walk this life with Jesus.
