00:00:05.837 --> 00:00:07.067
You know what?

00:00:07.067 --> 00:00:12.863
We can run to a thousand things

00:00:12.863 --> 00:00:16.704
and quickly call somebody on your phone.

00:00:16.704 --> 00:00:18.473
Everyone of you just about,

00:00:18.473 --> 00:00:20.197
you have a phone right in your pocket,

00:00:20.197 --> 00:00:23.761
right in your purse.

00:00:24.901 --> 00:00:27.321
It's difficult to mourn

00:00:27.321 --> 00:00:28.767
when all of a sudden

00:00:28.767 --> 00:00:30.757
you get a text message

00:00:30.757 --> 00:00:32.994
and then you respond to it.

00:00:32.994 --> 00:00:34.385
I mean right at such time

00:00:34.385 --> 00:00:35.270
where you've sinned

00:00:35.270 --> 00:00:36.347
and you're actually beginning

00:00:36.347 --> 00:00:38.945
to feel something

00:00:38.945 --> 00:00:40.514
and have some deep

00:00:40.514 --> 00:00:43.248
and real dealings with the Lord.

00:00:43.248 --> 00:00:46.637
And suddenly you hear a phone beep

00:00:46.637 --> 00:00:49.351
and you actually respond to it.

00:00:49.351 --> 00:00:51.189
I'll tell you one of the reasons

00:00:51.190 --> 00:00:52.755
we don't go so deep

00:00:52.755 --> 00:00:54.715
and we don't mourn so deeply

00:00:54.715 --> 00:00:57.104
and we don't weep so bitterly

00:00:57.104 --> 00:00:59.780
and we don't contemplate

00:00:59.780 --> 00:01:02.646
things like

00:01:02.646 --> 00:01:04.737
David did.

00:01:05.097 --> 00:01:07.915
It's because we're so caught up in the trivialities.

00:01:07.924 --> 00:01:08.521
You know what?

00:01:08.521 --> 00:01:09.378
There's a time

00:01:09.378 --> 00:01:11.246
to turn off your computer

00:01:11.246 --> 00:01:14.268
turn off your phone.

00:01:14.268 --> 00:01:16.776
Guys,

00:01:16.776 --> 00:01:19.953
when I was a teenager,

00:01:19.953 --> 00:01:22.704
phones had cords

00:01:22.704 --> 00:01:25.445
that went to the wall.

00:01:25.445 --> 00:01:27.332
We didn't even have phones

00:01:27.332 --> 00:01:30.353
you can walk around the house with.

00:01:30.353 --> 00:01:33.549
There were no phones in cars, yet.

00:01:33.549 --> 00:01:35.829
Cell phones,

00:01:35.829 --> 00:01:41.509
that was on Star Trek.

00:01:41.509 --> 00:01:43.420
I'm saying this because

00:01:43.420 --> 00:01:45.098
people actually have

00:01:45.098 --> 00:01:46.351
for a long time

00:01:46.351 --> 00:01:48.200
lived without these things.

00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:49.523
There is a time

00:01:49.523 --> 00:01:52.229
to shut them off

00:01:52.229 --> 00:01:55.578
and get alone with the Lord.

00:01:55.578 --> 00:01:58.178
If you can't do that

00:01:58.178 --> 00:02:00.782
you're not gonna know the victories

00:02:00.782 --> 00:02:06.901
of the men and women who have gone really deep with the Lord.

00:02:09.765 --> 00:02:13.290
That's just the truth.

00:02:13.290 --> 00:02:14.847
If you gotta to take

00:02:14.847 --> 00:02:16.297
a 12 gage shot gun

00:02:16.297 --> 00:02:17.449
and put a slug hole

00:02:17.449 --> 00:02:19.295
through the front of your television

00:02:19.295 --> 00:02:22.042
in order to get alone with the Lord then do it.
