1 Samuel 7:1-12 Return to the Lord with all your hearts. RESTLESSNESS Realizing our current situation is vital for making any progress in our Christian walk. RECEPTION Get rid of any idols that serve as a substitute for God. REPENTANCE Unrecognized and un-repented sins accumulate in our lives like garbage. We must not only stop doing what is wrong, but also take some corrective steps. When we take a step toward God, we will undoubtedly experience a pull back.
