Saul initially followed God&#8217;s commands and was placed in a high place, but this power took control of Saul. We see Saul many times trusting in his kingdom over God, which eventually lead to his demise.<\/li>\n<li>The biggest takeaway from this is to be aware that we can&#8217;t find security in the things of this world. This would include jobs, people, and reputation. Everything is a blessing from the Lord and everything can be taken away. We should take security in sovereignty of the Giver over the gifts in our lives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lighthousebc.com\/sermons\/sermons\/its-all-coming-to-an-end\/\">&#8220;The Gently Restore Approach&#8221;<\/a> by Randy Sarmiento<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This is part of the <a href=\"http:\/\/lighthousebc.com\/sermons\/sermons\/series\/peacemaker\/\" class=\"broken_link\">Single Life Peacemaker series.<\/a> We focused specifically on the restoring process after taking the &#8220;log&#8221; out of our own eyes. Often times, it seem easy to say &#8220;sorry&#8221; and leave it at that. However, given our status as saints of Christ we should embrace humility and forgiveness deeply.<\/li>\n<li>We should also demonstrate tough love from scripture when we see our brothers and sister struggling with sin. If we have a genuine love for God and for our brothers and sisters, we should seek them out one on one to speak about God&#8217;s standard. This is a very delicate process and a lot of prayer and meditation should be done before engaging.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Special Feature<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I did some digging in the beacon and saw a post about <a href=\"http:\/\/lighthousebc.com\/beacon\/2011\/04\/27\/peacemaker-8-chapter-7-just-between-the-two-of-you\/\">the restoring process in the 4 Gs of peacemaking.<\/a>\u00a0All the articles and materials from when <a href=\"http:\/\/lighthousebc.com\/beacon\/2011\/06\/15\/peacemaker-hub-post\/\">Peacemaker was taught as a Sunday School class in 2011<\/a> are available as well.<a href=\"http:\/\/lighthousebc.com\/beacon\/2011\/04\/27\/peacemaker-8-chapter-7-just-between-the-two-of-you\/\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.714285714;\">I would appreciate any comments and inputs.
