FULL VIDEO: https://youtu.be/72dCur_Ud8E Jesse asks a young man if he has a solid foundation. The man says it's shifty, but getting better — he's still not there, where he should be in life with God, he feels. He spoke to his father to forgive and reconcile with him, rather than attacking him, and they are reconnecting their father-son relationship. Other people relate in that they're not "there" yet. Jesse asks, where is "there"? People should not get into their head, believe their thoughts, or have judgment or opinions about themselves, or compare themselves with others. We are not God — it's not for us to judge or decide where we should be in life. Just live. One man says he's slipped into negative thoughts and felt the floor fall out from underneath him when he was laid off from his job of 30 years. A person watching online asked: Shouldn't we tell ourselves we're not there yet, in order not to be complacent, never be satisfied in our relationship with God? The answer is NO, we should not tell ourselves that kind of thing. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church
