Turning Points

The following comes from the current sermon series at Explore Church called "Turning Points."  Consider reading 1 & 2 Samuel for more details on the life of David.

Turning points come at unusual and unexpected times.  Additionally, they are rarely easy...even when you recognize the need for change.  Understanding that where we are, our current circumstances, is the result of the decisions that we have made.  None of us want to mess up or miss out...but how can we be prepared when opportunity knocks?  How can we insure that we will make good choices?  A lot has to do with our perspective...how do you see things?  What is your perspective?

Here are a few key ideas:

1. God is always at work and He choses and uses those who have a heart for Him.
2. Faith sees what God can do as if it is already done.

Here are some key reminders:

1. God knows where you are.
2. God speaks, so be listening!
3. The condition of your heart is key to usability by God.
4. When preparing you, God never seems in a hurry, but when He moves, it is often sudden and surprising, so be ready!

This series continues this Sunday with part 3.  The text will be 1Samuel 30 if you would like to read ahead.  Hope to see you there!
