“This is taking FOREVER!”
Genesis 16:1-6

Pastor Nate Herrlin

When God makes a promise, God keeps a promise.

We don’t need to help God keep His promises.

When God makes a promise, God keeps a promise.

How do you know the difference between taking responsibility for your part, and taking over for God?

You’re probably taking over for God when…

…you’re not TALKING TO GOD about it.

…you’re reluctant to TALK TO OTHERS about it.

…you’re avoiding or ignoring GOD’S WORD and HIS WISDOM.

…you’re experiencing significant WORRY & ANXIETY about it.

GOD’S PROMISES TO US:

- I will be WITH you.

- Life is going to be HARD sometimes.

- But I’m going to WORK GOOD out of whatever you’re going through.

We need to hold our plans loosely because they may not be God’s plans.

What are you waiting for?

- What if we commit to prayerfulness about that thing?

- What if we commit to talking to otherwise godly people about it?

- What if we commit to spending even more time in God's Word during this uncertain season?

- What if we commit to bringing those worries to the Father, trusting that He really does care about us and what we're going through?

- God may call you to KEEP WAITING.

- God may invite you to LOOK ELSEWHERE.

- God may be waiting for you to learn to TREASURE HIM more through this.
