North Platte Berean Church
Is it wrong if I'm not hurting anyone?
Clear vision is crucial for navigating the maze of life. But what if we don’t see as well as we think we do? How can we tell if we’re Seeing Clearly? The question, "Can we trust our own sight?" is one of several recurring themes in the Bible, which is pretty amazing when you consider it's a compilation of 66 literary works composed by around 40 different authors over about 1500 years! Over and over again, we see our perspective clashing with God’s, bringing up a choice: Whose sight will we trust more – His or ours?

Sometimes in life we feel overwhelmed and powerless to enact any kind of change. Victory seems unattainable when our resources seem too little compared to the terribly large obstacles facing us. Yet what if the seeming disparity is exactly the moment when God wants to show His mighty power most? We'll conclude our "Seeing Clearly" series as we jump to Judges 7 and we'll see the power of God win an amazing victory - not by many, but by a designed few.
