I can't believe we wrapped up "Big Buts" this past Sunday with blaming our circumstances.
We talked about "When circumstances go wrong, remember to whom you belong"
We looked at John 5 and how Jesus asked a crazy question to a man who was paralyzed for 38 years..."Do you want to be made well?" Read John 5 and you will be shocked at his response.
We talked about learning the art of giving our circumstances to God
Psalm 55:22-Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken
We all will face tough, challenging or unexpected circumstances. When they happen we can either blame them for our ungodly attitudes & actions or we can take them to God in prayer.
Challenge for the week: Carve out 5-10 minutes each day to "Cast your cares on the Lord"
#1--Be authentic--share with God your true thoughts & feelings
#2--Spend time in prayer both talking to God but listening
#3--Spend time reading a chapter from The Bible (The book of John is a great place to start) be reminded that your identity is not in your circumstances but in GOD!
