“Catch My Drift” (Part 1)
Nehemiah 13:1-9

Speaking Today: Pastor Norm Schwab

In a messy and broken world, we are all prone to drift if we are not careful. What will keep us on track as we marvel at the grace of God?
We are ALL prone to drift.
1. Re-sensitize to God’s truth. (verses 1-3)
2. Get mad about the right things. (verse 8)
3. Choose close friends wisely. (verse 4)
4. Fill up with good stuff. (verse 9)
Next Step:
Spend some time as we sing the last song asking one of these two questions . . .
God, is there something you would like to have cleaned out of my life? What action needs to happen?
What area have I drifted slightly off course? What action needs to happen to nudge my spiritual life back on track.
