We have been talking about desiring more of God for the past several weeks. As the series comes to a close, we need to bring it all together to consider what it looks like in real, everyday life to live like you mean it. What characterizes a person who genuinely savors Jesus day by day in what they do? We've settled on five characteristics that stand out and that we can take steps toward incorporating into our own lives today.
What about those times when I don't desire God? Where does that leave me? What do I do? And how do I move beyond it? It's a very real place for a lot of people, and we need to know what to do when we feel this way. In today's episode, we answer these questions and more that surface when we don't yearn for God.
