Bible: John 12:1-19
Speaker: Nate Powell, Lead Pastor
In the beginning, the Word [Jesus] was already there. The Word [Jesus] was with God, and the Word [Jesus] was God. —John 1:1 (NIrV)
Father, I want those you have given to me to be with me, to be where I am. —John 17:24 (GNT)
All these wonderful expressions of love – serving, time, and gift giving.

FROM
The FOR Posture will lead to disappointment and shame because we will never perform with perfection.
“Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.” —Mark 14:6-9 (NIV)
LORD, save us! LORD, grant us success! —Psalm 118:25 (NIV)
The FROM Posture will lead to resentment and disbelief because hardship will arrive at all our doorsteps.
The WITH posture will lead to deep connection and identity because God will never leave you.
I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. —Revelation 21:3 (NLT)
