So don't let what is temporary in this life train you into a permanent mindset where you miss out on what God wants to do in and through you. This is why last week's Psalm forty six ten is so important. Psalms forty six ten, be still and know that I am God. This is a stance of faith, not of passivity. Being still doesn't mean collapse. Being still doesn't mean drifting. Being still doesn't mean sitting by idly and surrendering to the storm. It's setting my mind, watch, toward what I know until what I know becomes what I know.

Watch. Watch. In in Joseph Joseph's body found himself his body was in a in a pit. His body was sold into slavery. His body found itself being a slave in Potiphar's house. His body found itself being imprisoned. But watch, watch, his mind never fully bowed to the pit, to slavery, or to prison. And this matters because before he could rule in Pharaoh's house, he had to refuse affliction in his heart. And that's true for each and every one of us because I can't rule when my mindset is wrong.

You may not be called to the world. You are absolutely called to your world. And do you realize there's people in your world that will never listen to me? They'll never listen to your pastor. They won't give me the time of day because I wear black on black with crispy white tennis shoes, I have tattoos, and I'll grow an obnoxious mustache or a big beard laying there like, I don't know who this guy is. He's a he's a preacher. His life is perfect. I'll never listen to him, but to listen to you, that's how amazing this is because we all are called to impact our world. Amen?

If I'm still thinking, still thinking like offense, I will forfeit peace in my life everywhere I go. It doesn't matter if you go, well, they did this to me. Hey. That that lack of peace is going to travel with you everywhere you go because you're still thinking like offense. If I still think about fear, I'll misinterpret steps of faith. If I'm missing if I still think about bondage, I will I will fear freedom when it comes. If I still think about rejection, I will resist connection that God brings to me to support me through the storms and seasons of my life.
