Hello ACG Fam and thank you Father God for allowing us to see a NEW day! Allowing the Lord to carry us through life is a process we must learn especially when our sinful nature defaults us back to relying on SELF. WE try and figure things out on our own first, but as we are growing in Jesus we are learning to take it to the Lord first and then there will be less to figure out because our faith reminds us He's already worked it out. Our Comforter, the Holy Spirit is already present waiting on us to surrender that thing or THINGS to God. That's good news right there!
Let's not forget Jesus himself taught us in Matthew 11:28 (KJV) Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Rest from worrying. Rest from being troubled. Rest from trying to figure it out. Rest from caring so much. Yes, sometimes you can care so much that things begin to take a toll on you. We get too involved which means we haven't fully given it to the Lord. We told him about it, but haven't given it to him. There are some things we're just going to have to give to the Lord AND LEAVE IT WITH HIM.
Listen, when trials come, when situations happen that are too much for us, WE HAVE A RIGHT to turn it over to the Lord. Taking on burdens that God didn't put on your or my plate can become hazardous to our spiritual health. Then, our spiritual garden becomes compromised.
With that being said, let's get into the activity.
▫️What are your top 3?
▫️What 3 out of the 7 things are you learning to LEAVE at the feet of Jesus!
▫️Do you struggle more with giving it to him or leaving it with him?
As you decide, ask the Lord to give you the strength to leave those things that weigh on you with him in Jesus holy name...amen. I pray this Shared Activity blesses you!🩷
