We talked about our devotion to God. We can either be a one-stepper or two-stepper.
The verses were Psalms 86: 7-10
7 "In the day of my trouble I will call on you, for you will answer me."
8 There is no one like you among the gods, Lord, nor any deeds like your
deeds.
9 All nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord. They
shall glorify your name.
10 For you are great, and do wondrous things. You are God alone."
Here are some of my notes from this sermon.
A one-stepper person is someone who walks through a door and just stopped in the middle of the doorway and just stands there. One foot is in one side and the other foot is on the other side.
When you're in the middle you're lukewarm, you're between hot and cold. One side of the door is hot and other side is cold. They can peek through the door and see what "plan" it is and if they like they'll go through it, but if they don't, then they back up and never want to have anything to do with that plan.
When they see their plan when they're not suppose to, they're ruining it for themselves; 'cause you have to walk through the door, whether or not you like the "plan" or not.
Also a one-stepper person is a like a person who drives on the highway with his/her blinker(s) on all the time. They never turn it off. They get in people's way 'cause they don't know where they're going and the people around them what to get somewhere to a certain place.
As my pastor called them "blinker man", they're distracted and they don't know that they had their blinker on for like 30 miles!
It doesn't matter what kind of door you go through......it could be wood, glass, etc.
Am I going to devote myself to God's plan on the other side of the "door"?
You have to have commitment required for the door "plan".
We have to trust the "door" too.
In the Psalms verses, I think David is writing this. But don't count me on that.
David was a man after God's own heart.
And that's about it for this Sunday.

Thanks for sharing Sarah! God can speak to us sometimes with just a few words!
Have you ever heard of Leslie Ludy? She is a Christian Author and I really love her books. I recently read "Authentic Beauty" by her and God really used it to speak to me. I just wanted to share that with you because I thought you might want to check it out
