[857.26 --> 858.16] That became normal. |
[858.30 --> 860.46] And you learn to live with fear. |
[860.70 --> 861.84] And it shapes you. |
[861.84 --> 864.64] And so you say the right thing. |
[864.78 --> 867.02] Which means not the thing that was necessarily true. |
[867.20 --> 870.66] But the thing that might help control the angry person. |
[871.86 --> 875.44] And then you learn to become a people pleaser. |
[877.12 --> 877.52] Right? |
[877.60 --> 883.36] I've got to say the right thing to keep that person in a good space with me. |
[884.32 --> 886.00] Not necessarily the truth. |
[886.00 --> 892.88] There was some unhealthy living going on there for me. |
[893.04 --> 896.78] And with lots of counseling and the love of an amazing wife and family. |
[897.30 --> 901.56] I began to see how I was shaped and misshaped. |
[902.98 --> 906.14] And you learn to face the fear. |
[906.50 --> 908.82] You learn to face the pain. |
[909.28 --> 910.88] And it's an ongoing journey. |
[911.02 --> 913.16] You don't arrive completely. |
[913.16 --> 917.14] Because pain and fear become a part of you. |
[917.36 --> 920.18] They start running your life in unhealthy ways. |
[920.62 --> 923.90] And you escape in all kinds of unhealthy ways. |
[924.42 --> 926.92] Ways that aren't going to help you in the long run. |
[927.92 --> 931.56] And as long as my life was run by fear and anger and pain. |
[931.80 --> 935.76] I negated the full potential of God's love in me. |
[935.76 --> 939.24] God was flowing. |
[939.38 --> 941.02] Love was flowing through me. |
[941.14 --> 942.18] But I blocked it. |
[942.56 --> 945.70] And it caused harm to my family. |
[946.02 --> 946.98] To myself. |
[947.18 --> 947.96] And to others. |
[948.44 --> 950.34] Because it wasn't opening up to that love. |
[953.26 --> 954.28] The way of Jesus. |
[954.38 --> 955.14] We sang about it too. |
[955.20 --> 958.34] The way of Jesus offers so much more. |
[959.24 --> 960.00] So much more. |
[960.54 --> 961.82] Scripture says so often. |
[961.90 --> 962.30] Do not fear. |
[962.30 --> 962.58] In fact. |
[963.48 --> 966.48] Some writers say it's the most repeated command in scripture. |
[966.74 --> 967.26] Do not fear. |
[967.34 --> 967.70] Do not fear. |
[967.78 --> 968.12] Do not fear. |
[968.22 --> 968.56] Do not fear. |
[968.76 --> 970.02] I put two examples down. |
[970.58 --> 971.74] John 14.27. |
[971.88 --> 972.52] Jesus says. |
[973.08 --> 974.98] Peace I leave you. |
[975.18 --> 976.38] My peace I give you. |
[976.62 --> 978.86] I do not give you as the world gives. |
[978.94 --> 979.10] Right? |
[979.16 --> 980.44] Where there's that lie going on. |
[980.72 --> 982.36] Do not let your hearts be troubled. |
[982.78 --> 984.46] Do not be afraid. |
[986.08 --> 986.50] Peace. |
[986.66 --> 987.10] No fear. |
[987.10 --> 987.22] There. |
[988.30 --> 989.62] John 16.33. |
[990.16 --> 990.70] Jesus says. |
[990.82 --> 991.80] I have told you these things. |
[991.90 --> 993.28] So that in me you may have peace. |
[993.34 --> 993.96] There we are again. |
[994.62 --> 996.58] In this world you will have trouble. |
[998.56 --> 1002.68] Somehow peace is not the absence of trouble. |
[1003.24 --> 1004.58] In this world you will have trouble. |
[1004.70 --> 1005.08] But take heart. |
[1005.14 --> 1005.96] I have overcome the world. |
[1006.24 --> 1008.18] We trust that Jesus has brought victory. |
[1009.20 --> 1010.38] Jesus brings us peace. |
[1010.42 --> 1012.04] As opposed to all the angst. |
[1012.16 --> 1014.04] And all the anxiety that we live in. |
[1014.04 --> 1017.88] And the church is supposed to be a community of peace. |
[1018.00 --> 1020.64] In a culture of fear and outrage. |
[1021.46 --> 1026.88] One writer described this peace as being a non-anxious presence. |
[1027.96 --> 1029.12] I like that. |
[1030.06 --> 1032.02] A non-anxious presence. |
[1034.48 --> 1037.32] Where we're not drawn into all the chaos. |
[1037.96 --> 1040.86] We're not pulled into all the unrest around us. |
[1040.86 --> 1043.62] Rather we are anchored in the presence of Jesus. |
[1044.04 --> 1044.48] How? |
[1044.66 --> 1050.46] How do we keep from getting sucked into that black hole of outrage and fear. |
[1050.72 --> 1052.28] That is so much around us. |
[1052.60 --> 1054.24] What can we do to stop that? |
[1054.58 --> 1056.50] And I think there's probably a lot we can do. |
[1056.76 --> 1058.80] But I'd like to hold up one practice. |
[1058.94 --> 1061.36] And that is the practice of silence. |
[1062.84 --> 1065.10] We already said listen more speak less. |
[1065.32 --> 1067.18] That's helpful in this journey. |
[1067.18 --> 1068.98] But I think it's more than that. |
[1069.18 --> 1070.28] And look at Luke 5. |
[1070.34 --> 1071.58] And we'll see what Jesus did here. |
[1072.68 --> 1073.50] Look at it with me. |
[1073.60 --> 1074.82] Luke 5 15 through 16. |
[1074.94 --> 1077.44] Yet the news about him spread all the more about Jesus. |
[1077.86 --> 1081.06] So crowds came to hear him and be healed of all their sickness. |
[1081.54 --> 1082.00] Now I want you. |
[1082.16 --> 1082.68] A pastor. |
[1082.94 --> 1083.64] As a pastor. |
[1083.78 --> 1084.46] I would note. |
[1085.44 --> 1088.26] He's having super successful ministry going on right there. |
[1089.26 --> 1090.46] Things are going super good. |
[1090.54 --> 1091.50] Lots of crowds are coming. |
