Here’s a summary of this week’s sermon:

Welcome to CROWD Church! In this weeks talk Dan Rogers explores Psalm 131 and looks at its meaning through the lens of our modern societies angst and anxieties. Dan challenges us all to reject pride and haughtiness and instead recognise our personal limitations.

1. Cultivate Humility to Reduce Pride: King David's statement, "My heart is not lifted up," underscores the need to avoid pride and maintain humility. Pride leads to self-isolation, poor decision-making, and strained relationships. By rejecting pride, we open ourselves to outside input, wisdom, and the Spirit of God, fostering better connections and decisions.

2. Avoid Haughtiness to Embrace Respect: David's declaration, "My eyes are not raised too high," warns against looking down on others. Haughtiness, or seeing oneself as superior, damages relationships and devalues others. Embracing humility and respect aligns with God's view of all people as His image-bearers, promoting a more compassionate and understanding approach to others.

3. Recognize and Respect Personal Limitations: David's third point, "I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvellous for me," highlights the importance of recognizing our limitations. Instead of being overwhelmed by issues beyond our control, we should focus on the responsibilities God gives us, trust in His sovereignty, and engage in prayer. This approach fosters peace and contentment, allowing us to contribute meaningfully within our capacity.
