Your God is too small

Part 4: God is Bigger Than Our Deepest Sadness

As creatures of habit, we hope to keep the things we like and the people we love around forever.

Sadness often occurs when things change or people leave.

Like us, King David experienced deep sadness. His response during and after it provides a model we should follow.

1. A friendship cultivated. (1 Sam. 17:48-18:9)

I Samuel 17:48-58 NKJV

I Samuel 18:1-9 NKJV

2. A friendship cemented. (1 Sam. 20:1-18, 30-34, 41-42

I Samuel 20:1-18 NKJV

I Samuel 20:30-34 NKJV

I Samuel 20:41-42 NKJV

3. A friendship celebrated. (2 Sam. 9:1-7)

II Samuel 9:1-7 NKJV

In the midst of our sadness God comforts us through:

· Our Gratefulness: We thank Him for the season we had together.

· Our Acceptance: We embrace His sovereignty, even when it’s hard.

· Our Remembrance: We remember that spiritual friendships will last forever
