Prayer

the Who and the Do

The Who & the Do of Miss Betty Lou

It’s about your WHO your person your identity before, it’s about your DO

God has this… love for you outlandish crazy insane unsurpassable unwavering unconditional perfect hot burning out-of‐the-box insane love for you No No No Apart from all your DO, he’s got this …

Gospel… God’s will we would be… filled with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives

who It’s about our who

the first act of discipleship is to learn how to enjoy God enjoying you

All that we DO (and we are to be active) comes out of a full sense of WHO

Proverbs 20:27 The human spirit is the lamp of the LORD that sheds light on one's inmost being. NIV The LORD's light penetrates the human spirit, exposing every hidden motive. NLT

new creations in Jesus

integrated whole

God’s love & concern for us not about our DO it’s about our WHO

God uses our spirit and our imagination

divine the signs We’re trying to divine the signs

implications… Pay attention

2 Timothy 2:4 The good soldier does not involve or become preoccupied in civilian affairs but is always seeking to please his commanding officer.

as you know who you are…

implications… Pay attention Embrace uncertainty

Is this nudge that I’m feeling on the inside the kind of nudge Jesus would give?

If I act on this nudge… would it be a loving thing? would it be a Kingdom building thing?
