Outline

Hook: What is the lens through which you look at life?

I. POSTURE OF FAITH
"O under, under! Get you under, O soul! Keep under! Keep low! Keep under the authority of God, the majesty of God, the sovereignty of God, the power that God has over you. " - Jeremiah Burroughs

II. PRACTICE OF FAITH
"Biblically we discover that lament is a legitimate, even necessary, form of fellowship with God when we are in a place of pain. the Bible repeatedly affirms lament to be an honest and expected expression of our battle with the brokenness of ourselves and the rest of the world." - Kelly Kapic

III. POWER OF FAITH
"I don't care what the circumstances may be, the Christian should never be agitated, the Christian should never be beside himself, the Christian should never be in a condition where he has lost control of himself." - D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Take-away:
1. We are saved by faith, not works (Gal 3:11).
2. We live by faith, not sight (Heb 10:38).
