2. GODLY ORDER Discipleship In relationship with Jesus.
In His Word/ Prayer
Intimacy and trust and an ever increasing and deepening faith.
Sweet spot where we feel that we are exactly where God wants us to be. Found our calling and purpose in life in Him
True joy and true fulfilment in this place of godly order.
This is where God wants us to live. It’s the place of transformational change with ever increasing glory becoming like Jesus.

3. UNGODLY ORDER
Order things around ourselves (no longer around Jesus- it’s around us)
Comfort, go through the motions of faith
Jesus is no longer the focus, because other things in life have become more important (house, car, friendships, money our hobbies, even our families) have become more important than Jesus in our lives.
He’s been nudged off the throne and replaced with things that God has given us for our enjoyment (good things) but they have become our ultimate focus when they were never meant to be
Ungodly order- that’s what happens when we take our eyes off Jesus- he becomes part of the blur on the periphery of our lives.

4. UNGODLY CHAOS
This is part of the temporary reality of living in a fallen, broken world where the consequences of sin are still seen in things like sickness and death.
Within our own congregation in the last couple of weeks we have had people who have lost loved ones.
When a loved one becomes ill or passes away we feel the chaos of sin in this broken world, impact our lives beyond our control, but at other times the chaos we experience is self-inflicted by our own sin. As we stray from God we plunge into chaos because When we sin, there are consequences that can cause chaos in our lives.
Result of our own decisions, times we disobey God, rebel and sin against Him.
We find ourselves in an ungodly chaos that is destructive in our lives and faith.

5. Both ungodly order and ungodly chaos occur in our lives when we take our eyes off Jesus.
