Uuhhh?

I'm sitting here with an empty brain. I cannot for the life of me think of a lesson for my Community Group. Originally I intended to do a lesson on identity from Genesis 3 and Donald Miller's Searching For God Knows What. It's a great topic from an outstanding book but I'm just not feeling it. I don't want to just throw something together but I can't think of anything. Pray that I seek Godly inspiration and don't settle for less.

While sitting here trying to think of what to type next, I think something came to me. God is pretty awesome. There is a sin that I struggle with and I bet you do too. It's a sin that is a norm. It's not only culturally accepted but it is culturally expected. It's something that the Bible speaks against frequently but is seldom viewed as a sin. What is this sin you keep neglecting to label, Sam? The sin I'm referring to is WORRY.

Here are a two verses that speak to the subject: Matthew 6:25-34, Philippians 4:6-7.

I have been worrying a lot lately. I have over a year before my internship ends but I've been anxious about what I'll do afterward. More school, a job? Will I have to raise my own support for the rest of my life? All scary questions but not legitimate concerns. It's elementary theology but I can't seemed to lay my burdens on Jesus. Pray that I find peace, give concerns to Jesus and give my future an appropriate amount of attention and no more.

Praise God for healing and inspiring.
