Fear of what
others think; fear of being wrong; fear of looking foolish; fear of failure;
fear of conflict...all these fears can stop us from getting important things
done. It’s understandable that
people oppose change, especially when the status quo is comfortable and to their
benefit! But Jesus calls us to
take up our cross and follow him...to face fear and let God’s power see us
through!
It’s time to look ahead to next week’s
Scripture readings! We encourage
you to begin reflecting upon the following readings. We’ll focus upon these next Sunday.
Scripture
readings for Sunday, August 4, 2013:
- Nehemiah 4:1-23
- Take a look at Romans 5:1-5 and/or James 1:2-4—we’ll spend time with one of these
- Take a look at Luke 4:1-13 and/or Luke 6: 20-26—ditto :-)
