KEY SCRIPTURES: Matthew 7:13-14; 21-23 “We often OVERCOMPLICATE GOD’S WILL and UNDERESTIMATE HIS GOODNESS.” True life is only found in SURRENDER and RELATIONSHIP with Christ, not in appearances or rituals. Repentance – TURNING FROM SIN. Trust – RELYING FULLY on Christ as the way, the truth, the life. Lordship – SUBMITTING EVERY AREA OF LIFE. HUMILITY OVER PRIDE - Matthew 5:5 (NLT) PURITY OVER COMPROMISE - Matthew 5:8 (NLT) LOVE OVER RETALIATION - Matthew 5:44 (NLT) TRUST OVER WORRY - Matthew 6:33-34 (NLT) INTEGRITY OVER HYPOCRISY - Matthew 6:1 (NLT) A STRONG FOUNDATION - Matthew 7:24-27 (NLT) Not legalistic rule-keeping, but A LIFE TRANSFORMED by God’s Spirit. Jesus’ yoke is easy because it’s carried in HIS STRENGTH. His way is narrow because it demands OUR WHOLE HEART.
