Podcast – Not What I Wanted
June 09, 2008
9:22am Monday
Occasionally I have parts of my days that “Don’t go my way”. And that “not going my way” part can have it’s genesis in any number of things. For me it usually is some combination between “time” and/or “money”. For instance it might not go my way because I wanted to be somewhere at a particular time and that “being somewhere” may also have an impact on an opportunity to make money.
That idea of our day not “going our way” is a popular part of American culture which is contrary to the culture of the first century church that believed that God (or gods if you were pagan) was the contributing factor as to both the big and the little parts of your day (of course I’m oversimplifying for brevity). … Chasing after what we want (which is what I did on this hour of June the 9th) is a part of the poison of this culture which is contrary to the will of God. If we chase after what God wants then we can pursue something that has value. Anything else that we pursue is “a chasing after the wind”.
