Boy I Wish I Hadn’t Done That!
s!
If it feels right, then it can’t be wrong!
That is the message that we get from our culture today.
It amazes me how many decisions are made based on our emotions and feelings.

Our world is so emotionally driven that they have come up with a new way to communicate….
A new alphabet…Emojis… You have all seen these before.
Some of you absolutely refuse to use them…others can’t have a text conversation without putting an emoji or two in it.

This past year they put Bible verses on the screen at Christ In Youth and some of the words were replaced with emojis and the teens were able to read it with no problem at all.
I had no clue, but they were amazing!

A few years ago, I was on vacation with my family.
We went out to eat at a Japanese Steakhouse.
I love to eat at Japanese steakhouses.
I love the steak, the atmosphere, but I love the rice the most.
I decided that day that I would order an extra side of rice to take home with me to eat for lunch the next day.
My cousins being the loving family members that they are decided that they would pay for my meal.
Which made me emotional.
You see that place was expensive and I just couldn’t believe the kindness that they showed.
But there was a catch…they told me that they would pay for my meal if I would eat all my meal including the extra side of rice.
I decided to take them up on the offer and quickly figured out that it was going to be something that I would soon regret.
It truly is amazing how much rice expands inside of your body.
The truth is I knew deep down that eating that much food was going to be a mistake, but I let my emotions get the best of me.
If you would have asked me to eat that much food without challenging me and playing on my emotions, I would have never done it.
It was obviously a very stupid decision, but my emotions got the best of me.

We find one of the greatest heroes of the Bible confronted with emotional paralysis.
He lost total control of his emotions and because of that he knew what it was like to live with regret because of his emotionally charged decisions.

20 In the first month the whole Israelite community arrived at the Desert of Zin, and they stayed at Kadesh.
There Miriam died and was buried.
2 Now there was no water for the community, and the people gathered in opposition to Moses and Aaron.
3 They quarreled with Moses and said, “If only we had died when our brothers fell dead before the Lord! 4 Why did you bring the Lord’s community into this wilderness, that we and our livestock should die here?
5 Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to this terrible place?
It has no grain or figs, grapevines or pomegranates.
And there is no water to drink!”

6 Moses and Aaron went from the assembly to the entrance to the tent of meeting and fell facedown, and the glory of the Lord appeared to them.
7 The Lord said to Moses, 8 “Take the staff, and you and your brother Aaron gather the assembly together.
Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water.
You will bring water out of the rock for the community so they and their livestock can drink.”

9 So Moses took the staff from the Lord’s presence, just as he commanded him.
10 He and Aaron gathered the assembly together in front of the rock and Moses said to them, “Listen, you rebels, must we bring you water out of this rock?”
11 Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff.
Water gushed out, and the community and their livestock drank.
