Welcome (Community)
What is your best holiday ever and why?
Worship
Hands prayer:
Invite everyone to place hands open and upwards in their lap, as you guide them through a prayer.
Reflect for a few moments on all the gifts God has placed in your hands this past week, and thank Him for them.
What are you holding in your hands at the moment, that has become an idol, too important? Ask God’s forgiveness.
What activity do you need God to help you with right now? Ask Him.
Think of one person your hands can be used to bless, ask God to bless them through you. Amen.
Scripture reading: Mark 2:23-28 [NIV]
Word (Discipleship)
On a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being chill, and 10 being frazzled) where are you on the stress scale right now?
How good are you at rhythms of work and rest?
When we find it hard to rest, why do you think so? And what would God be saying to you in those moments?
Read Matthew 11:28-30, what does it tell us about Jesus? What speaks to you from the text? And can you identify any point of obedience God is calling for, from you?
