Gene Hackman taught how to overcome frustration with God
Gene Hackman taught how to overcome frustration with God

We recently learned of the passing of one of our generations great actors, Gene Hackman. He appeared in so many memorable movies - "The French Connection", "Superman", and "Hoosiers." One of the movies in which he had a stellar performance was "The Poseidon Adventure."
The movie was about a luxury cruise liner named the S.S. Poseidon. The ship capsized from a tidal wave on New Year's Eve. When the dust settled, a handful of survivors - led by Hackman (a liberal, self-determined preacher) - decided to work their way to the hull of the ship.

Intersections: God and Life
Intersections: God and Life

We must worship God exclusively, correctly, reverently, and regularly. If you are not careful, life will crowd God out. But redeemed people must never forget to make proper time for the God who created us, sustains us, and redeemed us. Ray Pritchard said: We give 1 day in 7 to God because 7 out of 7 belong to him!!!
As we continue from last week and think about our time with God, let's turn back to Exodus 20. Verse 9 commands, "Six days you shall labor, and do all your work." Many people view success as getting to the place where you do not have to work anymore. But that view of life reflects our sinful nature, not God's holy wisdom.
