Is it your wife? Well
men are told to love their wives as Jesus loves the church, but that does not
mean to idolize her. Love and cherish
her, help her, but not to idolize her.
Idolize gives the game away, it means you are worshipping her and this
is wrong. Similarly the wife should not
idolize her husband. That place is for
Jesus alone. There are many other things in our lives which can have that
central place, which they should not have.
It could be your job or a sport either played or watched. We have to root out these things again and
again and put Jesus where He belongs at the centre of our lives.
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
