  5. Isaiah 40:28-31Psalm 27:10-14

  6. I know I’m stalled-out and stale, but you just don’t understand…. • I have a messy past • I have an unmotivated, unfulfilled, uninspired, oversubscribed, no margin present, • And , I have an unfocused, unorganized and fuzzy future……. How can we get started on gaining altitude? CONSIDER THIS

  7. I have a messy past---how do you get over it? • Acknowledge the facts--it is what it is--/ know yourself/consciously unhook and turn • Forgiveness of self and others • Thankfulness for what was good • Process your good and bad experiences-what does that mean to me now? How am I acting-out? • Squeeze every principle out of your experiences. Break the chain. • How was the hand of God on you then to shape you for now? • Get help to process/grieve/untangle those past issues that are weighing you down from running, and sapping your strength-want and need to throw off every encumbrance • Know our mate’s past wounds, weaknesses, deep needs, and recommit to doing all you can to making them whole-BUILD-UP • Plan for wholeness…. “as was” to “as is” to “to be” • Totally trust/lean on Him for recovery and wholeness. • Don’t rob tomorrow by continually making payments to the past.

  8. I have an unmotivated, unfulfilled, uninspired, oversubscribed, no margin present—how do we get ahead of the curve? • Refresh your convictions/beliefs/examine yourself = reclaim an ‘all in’ attitude • Join the Rec Center = come to Christ-Eph 2:8&9 • Throw-off encumbrances and unnecessary weights • Restock your shelves = Bible study/small groups, • Inventory your temptations = clean your house • Strengthen your relationships = fresh recommitment to your mate, family, small group • Choose your friends & distance from others • Worship your God = service/prayer • Depend upon Him hourly for the results

  9. How about tomorrow, especially as a couple? How do we prevent stalling-out? • I already told you, I have an unfocused, unorganized and fuzzy future……. • Sharpen your mission-do you know what you want your marriage to be and look like in 2 years? 5 years? • Review your intake- the Word, prayer, TV, language, movies, poor choices • Create/Review your own priorities as a couple • Allocate your scarce resources--make choices • Scrape-away and throw-off the irrelevant and draining weights and encumbrances—build margin into your life • TAKE DEAD AIM – are you adrift, or do you have purpose and direction? Do you want it badly enough? • Make grace, dignity, forgiveness and mercy a staple • Are you prepared to Build-up each other? 1 Thess 5:11-15

  10. Your devotion:A Spring Cleaning Reading Move things around a bit Clean out the drawers Dust off the shelves

  11. Consider This:“Spirit of the Living God, fall fresh on me” Jer 18 • Melt me-soften anything in me that is rigid, unyielding, resistant, brittle—make me flexible • Mold me-in the image of Christ that can be used—put me in shape • Fill me-Once shaped, we can more readily receive His gifts and grace—talents for service----determine my intake • Use me-pour-out our lives in the service, care and building-up of others in His name—exercise me
