Summary

Do you ever find yourself rushing through everything--a meal, time with a loved one, or even a moment you were looking forward to? Or maybe obsessing over a specific goal, or weighed down by the all-too-common thought, "Why can't I be more like them? I must not be doing enough." What if it didn't have to be that way? What if you could break the cycle and find actual joy again? What if the point of life wasn't a scoreboard--even a ministry scoreboard--but being still and just knowing He is God? Francis Chan shares the importance of approaching life from a deep awareness of God's loving presence, the peace that comes when we let go of comparison, and the joy of walking out the uniquely designed purpose He set aside for you. We pray you come away from this message with a greater confidence that your God is with you, for you, and more than able to carry you through whatever you’re walking through.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Crazy Love podcast.
0:07.0	Are you resting in your accomplishments or in the cross?
0:11.0	Today, Francis explains that our obedience has to be rooted in faith in the finished work of the cross and our identity in Christ.
0:20.0	Without that foundation, we'll find ourselves worshipping achievement rather than worshiping
0:26.1	and enjoying Jesus.
0:28.5	Well, I, uh, I don't know, I don't know who comes up with these themes, but I love this theme of known.
0:41.5	I so love this theme.
0:45.0	I just want us to stop for a second and just, can we just recognize how huge it is?
0:53.1	Just to be fascinated by the fact that God knows us right now,
0:58.6	that he knows, like he perceives from afar. The Bible says he knows when we sit, he knows when
1:04.6	we rise. I mean, just two minutes ago, I'm backstage just going, God, okay, you're looking at me right now.
1:13.0	Like, God, you know what's going on in my head.
1:16.5	You know, like you know whether or not I'm willing to just say whatever you tell me to say right now.
1:23.0	And even as I'm praying, I'm going, God, you know that I'm not there yet.
1:27.3	You know, there's still some of this junk in here that's concerned about what you think. And I won't just say anything. And I'm like, God, change that. And I want to be that God. Like those guys I read about in the Bible, they'll just, they don't care what anyone's going to do to them. They just say it. And God knew. He's just going, man, your heart is not there yet. I'm going, God, get me there, get me there, get me there. Because I don't want to come up here and say what I think you want to hear. I don't want to come here and say what I feel like saying. I just want to go, okay, God, here's my mouth, here's my mind, you know me, you know, I'm known by you.
2:03.9	So right now, you know the thoughts that have gone through my mind today.
2:07.4	I start repenting of some of those things.
2:09.5	God, you know, you saw that.
