It Is What It Is | Week 1 | But It Doesn't Have To Be
“It is what it is” – A phrase used countless times in our society by ourselves and others to express frustration or resignation with a situation that seems overwhelmingly unchangeable. “But it doesn’t have to be” – This phrase recognizes the truth of “life under the sun,” that many times things are outside of our control, BUT we have a secret weapon – an ability to set our mind on things above while we live on earth below. This heavenly perspective, this divine perspective, allows us to respond to life on earth in a way that honors and glorifies God. This week, we will consider one biblical principle that leads us to a divine perspective - Personal Responsibility and Accountability.
