Rust

RUST

I have heard it said that there are three stages to relationship
1. Lust
2. Rust
3. Dust


Our relationship with anything requires attention – If not we get, awkwardness, lack of faith, lack of movement, which ends up being…..RUST

There are three key and vital relationships

1. God
2. Family
3. Strangers

Within these three it requires some type of communication – some type of involvement, some type of ongoing movement.

What happens to cause us to Rust Up? What is it that would cause us to come to a place of worthlessness, uselessness and depressed.

"Fe2o3"

That is the chemical formula for rust

What happens in this process?

At what point do we feel useless, broken, worthless and or depressed?

TEXT

Song of Solomon 2:15 (New International Version)

15 Catch for us the foxes,
the little foxes
that ruin the vineyards,
our vineyards that are in bloom

It’s the little things that cause us to rust. It’s the little things that we think , “no big deal”

There are several actions that take place when our vine is spoiled, or our relationships become rusty –

It’s a process , not an event

The first Action that causes Rust is – Oxidation
Oxidation is………

AN UNNEEDED CHANGE


The second action that causes Rust – Corrosion

Corrosion is……….

AN UNWEEDED CHANGE


The Final action that cause Rust is – Rot

Rot is…….

AN UNHEEDED CHANGE

Are you feeling a little Rusty?
