RUNNING WITH HORSES

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:1-5 You are always righteous, Lord, when I bring a case before you. Yet I would speak with you about your justice: Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease?

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:1-5 You have planted them, and they have taken root; they grow and bear fruit. You are always on their lips but far from their hearts. Yet you know me, Lord; you see me and test my thoughts about you.

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:1-5 Drag them off like sheep to be butchered! Set them apart for the day of slaughter! How long will the land lie parched and the grass in every field be withered?

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:1-5 Because those who live in it are wicked, the animals and birds have perished. Moreover, the people are saying, "He will not see what happens to us."

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:5 If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by the Jordan?

RUNNING WITH HORSES God is more concerned with how bright you shine, than he is with how dark it’s getting around you.

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:5 If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by the Jordan?

RUNNING WITH HORSES Jeremiah 12:5 If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by the Jordan?

RUNNING WITH HORSES God’s asking you to run with horses because you were created to run with horses. Don’t complain about how dark it’s getting, shine so bright the darkness will flee.

RUNNING WITH HORSES Running with horses is about going beyond yourself to the miracle only God can bring. Were made to be the containers for the miracle that God wants to bring to earth.

RUNNING WITH HORSES Pope Benedict XVI The world promises you comfort, but you were not made for comfort. You were made for greatness.

RUNNING WITH HORSES EXCUSES for saying “NO”: Thinking you need something more to be successful. Putting off God’s plan until later. The idea stresses you out so you avoid it.

STRESS = EXCITEMENT + FEAR RUNNING WITH HORSES EXCITEMENT is from GOD FEAR is from Satan STRESS = EXCITEMENT + FEAR

RUNNING WITH HORSES What are you passionate about? You can be passionate about almost anything and use it for God’s glory.
