Zach Schlegel - December 10, 2023
SERVICE - God Meant It For Good
Genesis 49:29-50:26
Introduction
There is a great danger when we have defective hopes. There are things that promise to deliver, but they can’t. We may skip through life with these hopes, oblivious to the fact that they could crumble. What happens when it all falls apart? Defective hopes put our lives on a roller coaster. How do we get off of this roller coaster?
When we come to the end of Genesis we will see two different funerals - one for Jacob and one for Joseph. Ecclesiastes says it’s better to go to a funeral than a party. Funerals, while painful, help us examine what we truly value. (Ecc. 7:2) A funeral calibrates our hopes so that when we arrive at our own funeral, we don't have any regrets
