We are trying to find significance in a fallen world by adopted the worlds values which since we don't know any better we trust, yet there is something else to consider.
We can find so many blessing each time we read the bible for me yesterday it was when I read about the church of laodicea and I usually have my guard up when I read it yet this time it spoke directly to how I need Jesus to cover my shame
We Should be more joyful but get trapped into the mentality that permeates our culture - God is above the culture and makes it all worthwile even the blahs, headaches, frustrations, grouchiness, envy, strife etc Rejoice again Rejoice ! That is the main Bible Message !
We Want Excitement in life we follow trends, new wave, new styles, new things, new tech...yet a life with God is an adventure if you stay close to Him ! If Not its a drag !
People Need A Rescue - we are face with much adversity due to the fall of man - adam - we inherited his fallen nature so its really not our fault but we are on the hook. We as a result are in jeopardy ! Yet Good New is Jesus is Savior and Will rescue us from the coming evil end of this age plus he keeps us from going to hell - just believe what he did and believe in Him !
