Notes from Beth Moore Study video, Living Beyond Yourself

1. Pouring Out: Gal. 5:16-26
A. Confessions
B. Concerns (Ps. 62)

Follow earnest confession with active forgiveness.

2. Pouring in

Side with Jesus against my own self-evaluation.
Identify the feeling that precedes sinful behavior
Nothing sin can give me is worth what it takes from me. (Nothing food can give me is worth what it takes from me.)

I Cor. 8:2: "...if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know."

John Piper, Desiring God 82: "The fuel of worship is the truth of God; the furnace of worship is the spirit of man; and the heat of worship is the vital affections of reverence, contrition, trust, gratitude and joy....There must be ignition and fire. This is the Holy Spirit."

82: worship= "confessions, longings, acclamations, tears, songs, shouts, bowed heads, lifted hands, and obedient lives."
