Ghosting God - week 2 | When rock bottom isn't the end

I'm gonna ask you a question.

Have you ever found yourself in life in a place where you've thought, "How on earth did I end up here?" Anyone ever done that? And I don't just mean, like, geographically, like you followed the satnav and it's got you in the wrong...

I don't mean that.

I mean in your life, you look at your life and you think, "How on earth did I get into this place now?" Me introduce, uh, someone to you.

It's this cow.

All right? And, uh, I heard this great story years ago about this farmer, and he had this field with a lot of cows in, and there was a f- a hole, uh, in one of the fences which he hadn't realized.

And then he came, uh, a couple of weeks later, and the cow had got out of the ho- out of the fence out, gone through the hole, and was ended up miles away from his, from his field.

And someone said to the farmer, "How did that cow get so lost?" And this is what the farmer said.

"I don't know," he said.

And I won't do any accent or anything.

He said, "I don't know.

I guess he just nibbled his way to lostness." Isn't that a great phrase? He just nibbled his way to lostness.

He didn't know how he'd got there so far away from where he wanted to be.

He just nibbled and nibbled and nibbled, and all of a sudden he thinks, "How on earth did I get here? I wanted to be over there." Maybe your life feels a little bit like that.

Maybe your life feels maybe not nibbled your way to lostness, but you're in a place right now where you feel you've hit rock bottom.

You don't know how you've got here.

Maybe you do.

Maybe you made some bad choices along the way.

Maybe other people made some bad choices.

Maybe you're the victim of other people's bad choices.

But however it is, you've kinda nibbled your way to that feeling of lostness.

You're a long way from where you wanna be.

Or maybe you're in that place 'cause you ghosted God.

And a- what does that mean? That's, that's our series this week.

We look at this concept of being ghosted, which is when communication is flowing between two people, and all of a sudden one person just stops the communication and they just ghost the other person.
