PROBLEM
Feel like we are on our own trying to figure life out on our own.
We feel stuck in our own lives.
Have you ever been stuck in the snow or mud?
You dig and dig.
You attempt everything you can, but you keep spinning your wheels.
That’s how it feels to be stuck in a rut.
SIGNS YOU’RE STUCK IN A RUT
You feel like your life is on a negative loop
You end each day feeling tired and rundown – or even start the day that way.
Nothing excites you or challenges you.
You can’t even remember the last time you felt pure joy.
You’re not excited for the day
When you’re in an emotional rut, you’re feeling down, but you can’t seem to get up off the couch and take action.
You feel you have nothing to look forward to.
You stay in your Comfort Zone
Or maybe you have a more subtle rut.
You may not feel bad outright, but have a sense that you’re not living up to your full potential.
IDENTIFYING WHY YOU’RE STUCK IN A RUT
There are many ways that we can get stuck in a rut, but there is only one cause:
Humans are wired to avoid pain and seek pleasure.
While you may not feel at your best in your current state, you do feel comfortable.
You know what to expect.
You know that getting out of a rut is going to involve effort – and maybe even pain and failure.
This fear of failure comes in many forms.
If you’re stuck in a rut in your career, it’s time to take a chance on a new job or even start your own business.
In relationships, we settle for less than we deserve or keep everyone at a distance to keep from getting hurt.
Phil 3:12-14
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.
But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
SOLUTION
There is one keystone thing you can do that will affect every other area of your life.
Develop your relationship with your church.
doesn't have to be lwfc (hope so)
you need a place you belong
30 instructions (verses) in scripture that you can't do unless you are connected in a body of believers.
(church)
The bible makes an assumption that you will get connected somewhere.
Eph 2:19 (TLB)
Now you are no longer strangers to God and foreigners to heaven, but you are members of God’s very own family, citizens of God’s country, and you belong in God’s household with every other Christian.
We are members of each other.
[address only attenders]
some of you don't contribute to the rest of the body.
don't give, serve, or bring anyone.
can i just rest?
there is a time in the beginning?
yes, you are welcome to contribute nothing to all this and just soak it all in.
but you can't stay there.
at some point you want to find a place to BELONG.
you get the most out of a relationship when you contribute to the relationship.
[example]
melissa and i had an attender relationship when we were dating.
Went on a date and then went back home.
we had an attender relationships.
But at some point i put a ring on it!
and membership has its privelages :-) If you got the ringy you can do the thingy.
You'll never discover the best of a relationship till you make a commitment to it.
I know some of you are just kicking the tires, thats fine.
God is looking for parts of the body who will contribute to the body they are a part of.
many of us feel like we are in a rut because we are not contributing or using the body we are in.
Don’t just attend a church, be the church.
Have a place you belong.
Develop relationship with Godly friends.
people who inspire you to be more like God when you are around them.
new testament they had weekly services but house ot house ministry
Part of our vision is based upon this scripture in ...
Acts 2:44 (TLB)
And all the believers met together constantly and shared everything with each other,
HOW?
Develop relationships on a team.
