BLOG ON: SERMON Tramps Chucking Food
GraceUnlimited
Dr. Joshua Mack
A young beggar sinks to his knees in front of the idling cars at a traffic light. Having compassion on him, a man reaches for the lunch his wife has packed for him and hands it through his car window to the hungry boy. In disgust, however, the boy crushes the food in his clenched fist and angrily throws it at the kind man's car. He wants money, not food!

"Lord, please change that guy's attitude!" This may be the starting point of many self-centred prayers. Paul, on the other hand, shows a starkly different model. He has on his heart the striking glory of God and His overwhelming grace, poured out on His people.

He wants believers to drink in these beauties. He wants us to be powered on by grace. He wants our prayer to be fuelled by personal appreciation for theology.

Moreover, he wants believers to so appreciate our dependence that we sink in submission and humility. This has to do with so appreciating our needs that we will bow, begging for what we need. This dependence shows that we understand that God is God--we are His servants.

God's people are also children, in respectful, family submission to our Father. This is a truth that has massive power to motivate us to pray. Consider what this means.

How easy it is to be so underwhelmed by the shocking glories of God in His kindness to us that we simply resemble tramps chucking food.
