Lift Off! Heart for Missions - Week 3
Heart for Missions - Week 3
Dependence
Take a moment and consider who or what you depend on. Is it your comforts? Your strengths? Perhaps your successes? It's easy to rest on our logical thinking and what makes sense. As we seek God's direction, let's depend on His will. It may seem different, against logic, maybe even a little crazy, but as we lean on God's strength, He can do amazing things in and through us. As we pray about missions, it will call us to depend on something greater than ourselves. It will push to be uncomfortable. And it may cause us to do something vastly different than we could imagine. Let's depend on God's leading--even if it may seem strange, it may be worth the opportunity to experience Him in a brand new way.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5
Pray that we would rely on God's direction rather than conventional thinking. Pray for greater dependence on Him no matter where He may be calling us to go. Pray for awareness to listen to God's leading as we consider the possibility of missions this summer.
Don't forget! This Sunday, March 31 is the LAST day to sign up to commit to going on missions with FCBCLA. Please sign up here if you have any interest so that we can start planning out our preparations. Questions? Contact Darren either by text, email, or chat!
