  1. Feeling Stuck?

    Comments Off on Feeling Stuck?
    Feeling Stuck? — a word by Pastor Tony D'Amico from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "if you’re feeling stuck—awesome! Seriously. It’s a sign that you’re paying attention. the Lord is trying to shake something up in your life."

    Sometimes, following Jesus is hard, really hard. It can feel like you’re running a marathon uphill with ankle weights on. And you’d rather cruise down a smoothly paved street on a skateboard.

    You know what I’m talking about. There are seasons we go through. Even though you read your Bible consistently, it feels like it’s going in one ear and out the other. Granted, church has amazing worship, but your heart’s not in it. Your mind is all over the place. Yes, you love Jesus yet feel bored, tired, or even numb. And ultimately, you just feel spiritually stuck.

  2. Red Sea Faith

    Red Sea Faith – a word by Pastor Bill Young from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "Can we trust God when we feel stuck between a rock and a hard place? Don’t look now — The Red Sea just opened."

    “Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalms 37:3-4 NIV84)

    I’ve recently been reading Exodus; I saw a great dichotomy — the balance between patiently waiting and taking action. Sometimes it’s hard to know which one to do. Moses and the Israelites were “pinned down” between the Egyptian army (bent on destroying them) and The Red Sea. They had nowhere to go.

    So, the Hebrews did what I often do — they started whining and grumbling! We are told in Exodus 14:13-14 that, “Moses answered the people, ‘Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.’”
