Message by Larry Thacker Jr. from October 18, “It’s Not About You”
We’ve been through difficult times of late. Our temptation might be to turn inward, nurse our wounds and try as best we might to protect ourselves from any more pain. That’s certainly understandable, especially when we know it’s probably not over. But I think that’s the worst thing we could do. Now is the time to turn outward instead. Now is the time to love each other all the more and to move forward with one purpose, helping each other along. We will hurt, and we will grieve. That’s ok. God grieves with us. This is not how it should have been. But let us turn to Him and be about His business. I truly believe that in so doing we will find our sorrows turned to joy as we grow in fellowship with Him. The fruit will be changed lives, and there is nothing sweeter. Our text is from Philippians 2:1-11. I hope you’ll listen and be strengthened and encouraged.
