[1035.76 --> 1036.12] restoration,
[1036.46 --> 1037.06] and freedom.
[1038.18 --> 1040.06] And as a freed people,
[1040.18 --> 1041.60] we are a freed people,
[1042.28 --> 1043.80] we get to proclaim
[1043.80 --> 1044.96] the year of the Lord's favor
[1044.96 --> 1046.50] and reflect that light
[1046.50 --> 1047.30] to the world
[1047.30 --> 1048.26] that is in darkness.
[1048.26 --> 1050.60] because the poor,
[1050.76 --> 1051.32] the oppressed,
[1051.52 --> 1052.44] and the blind
[1052.44 --> 1053.46] in our day,
[1053.66 --> 1054.56] including us,
[1055.02 --> 1056.38] desperately need
[1056.38 --> 1057.40] the good news
[1057.40 --> 1058.26] of Jesus Christ.
[1062.66 --> 1063.16] Now,
[1063.20 --> 1063.48] I don't know
[1063.48 --> 1064.28] who you think of
[1064.28 --> 1064.86] when you think
[1064.86 --> 1065.52] poor,
[1065.82 --> 1066.12] blind,
[1066.22 --> 1066.62] oppressed.
[1067.28 --> 1068.62] Somebody who needs,
[1068.86 --> 1069.86] desperately needs
[1069.86 --> 1070.86] the good news
[1070.86 --> 1071.62] of Jesus Christ.
[1071.62 --> 1077.08] So,
[1077.16 --> 1078.06] our modern day poor,
[1078.70 --> 1079.92] I suggest,
[1080.86 --> 1081.90] both economically
[1081.90 --> 1082.68] and spiritually,
[1083.36 --> 1084.34] suffering through
[1084.34 --> 1085.26] attempts at trying
[1085.26 --> 1086.06] to satisfy
[1086.06 --> 1087.22] deep longing
[1087.22 --> 1088.22] and true happiness
[1088.22 --> 1089.36] with anything
[1089.36 --> 1090.40] and everything
[1090.40 --> 1091.58] other than God.
[1093.66 --> 1094.82] That's what it means
[1094.82 --> 1095.42] to be poor,
[1095.50 --> 1095.70] right?
[1097.38 --> 1098.76] God is the answer,
[1098.90 --> 1100.06] but we try to satisfy
[1100.06 --> 1100.72] our needs
[1100.72 --> 1102.26] with everything
[1102.26 --> 1103.16] other than God.
[1104.54 --> 1105.22] And also,
[1105.50 --> 1106.26] in our culture
[1106.26 --> 1107.92] of hyper-individualism,
[1108.62 --> 1109.86] self-centeredness,
[1110.36 --> 1111.08] the blind,
[1111.72 --> 1112.98] our modern day blind,
[1113.24 --> 1114.96] that fail to see God
[1114.96 --> 1115.98] and the needs
[1115.98 --> 1116.58] of others.
[1117.66 --> 1118.18] And then,
[1118.30 --> 1119.22] from this blindness,
[1120.10 --> 1121.06] also the blindness
[1121.06 --> 1122.18] that fail to see
[1122.18 --> 1123.42] our own captivity
[1123.42 --> 1124.44] and oppression,
[1125.22 --> 1126.08] our own sins
[1126.08 --> 1126.84] and brokenness,
[1127.18 --> 1128.44] especially in a world
[1128.44 --> 1129.36] of consumerism,
[1129.36 --> 1130.32] busyness,
[1130.64 --> 1131.14] screens,
[1131.56 --> 1132.12] entertainment,
[1132.50 --> 1132.84] pleasures,
[1133.22 --> 1134.16] that try to grab
[1134.16 --> 1135.34] every single second
[1135.34 --> 1136.74] we have of our lives,
[1136.94 --> 1137.86] trying to grab
[1137.86 --> 1138.96] our whole beings
[1138.96 --> 1140.26] away from God.
[1140.70 --> 1142.90] That is our sinful selves.
[1144.50 --> 1146.24] In the midst of this,
[1147.00 --> 1150.80] we need Jesus Christ.
[1151.90 --> 1152.50] So,
[1152.74 --> 1153.82] how do we live
[1153.82 --> 1154.84] as Christ followers
[1154.84 --> 1156.02] and be that light
[1156.02 --> 1156.74] for the world
[1156.74 --> 1157.56] that is in darkness?
[1157.56 --> 1160.06] As we conclude
[1160.06 --> 1161.04] this morning,
[1161.26 --> 1161.96] my suggestion
[1161.96 --> 1162.84] is threefold.
[1163.62 --> 1164.14] To start,
[1164.26 --> 1165.24] I suggest that we must
[1165.24 --> 1166.88] continue to remember.
[1168.02 --> 1169.60] Remember and continue
[1169.60 --> 1170.58] to be attentive
[1170.58 --> 1171.24] and wrestle
[1171.24 --> 1172.62] with our own brokenness,
[1172.96 --> 1173.56] being aware
[1173.56 --> 1174.54] of our own addictions
