Hey All!
How's everyone's week been going?
So I've been confronted yet a again with a thought this week that has been haunting me for years now-Am I addicted to stress?
God has graciously given me some time this week to go out and soak up the sun and actually breathe. My college pastor has also challenged us to practice solitude this week. Does anyone know what solitude really is? It almost sounds depressing, right? It can be 1 minute, 30 minutes, or even hours of sitting in silence and just focusing on your thoughts and your feelings. Through doing this, God can now speak to me because I'm calm and still.
I've come to the realization that I might be addicted to stress! If I'm not busy then I'm worried why I'm not busy and stress myself out just thinking how far behind I must be since I'm not doing anything! It' insane!
Does this happen to any of you?!
Jesus says all we need is to have faith as small as a mustard seed and that all our strength can come from him. It's the letting go that's the hardest.
Psalm 55:22
Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you;
he will never permit the righteous to be moved.
Announcements!!!
Home Groups start again this week!!!!!
Tonight at 7pm at the Benavidez Home in Brentwood! Be there.
COC Night went really well on Tuesday!
Our very own JustLove team and other high school volunteers spent time in worship and service with a community of believers in Antioch serving them dinner!
Good job everyone!
Check out our calendar for this upcoming semester!
