The Grinch: Enlarging Your Heart

Proverbs 4:23

The Mt. Crumpit Experience

Everyone has dark days:

1. Dark Days of Disappointment.

Job 30:26

2. Dark Days of Distress.
3. Dark Days of Doubt.
4. Dark Days of Depression.
The Whoville Factor

1. Circumstances

We typically focus on our feelings not the facts.

Learn this: feelings lie!

Circumstances are trying.

2. People

Our mistake: we compare ourselves to others "If I could just be like..."

People are torture.

3. Problems

We blame ourselves and we exaggerate the negative.

Life is taxing.
The Whomanity of God

Proverbs 3:3

1. Accept What Cannot Be Changed

Acceptance is a learned experience.

Acceptance Speech:
-God does not owe us an explanation.
-Even if He did give an explanation, we probably wouldn't understand it.
-Explanations never bring peace.

2. Trust God’s Loving Care

Isaiah 26:3

We do not live a problem free life for two reasons:
1- Adam blew it.
2- We have an enemy.
3. Surrender to God’s Loving Control

God encourages me when I am disappointed.

Psalm 34:18

God guides me when I am doubtful.

John 8:12

God changes me when I am depressed.

Ephesians 5:13

1 John 2:8
