Yep, Another Weekly Challenge

This week's challenge is perhaps a tad less social than the first two. It doesn't require interpersonal relations at all, in fact. It is purely an exercise in knowing yourself and knowing God.

I want you to think of the area of your life that you worry about the most. Job, family, relationships, whatever. Concentrate on it and ask yourself why you haven't given it to God yet. Be honest with yourself and ask if it's because you don't trust God has your best interests in mind, that He's not powerful enough to help you, that He's simply unaware of what's going on in your life, or something else.

Be careful to not respond to all of these with the cookie-cutter Christian answer of, "Of course, God loves me and He created the universe. There's no reason to not trust Him." That quote is true, but if you're really stressing out about your life, then there is some part of you that is not trusting in God.

I know we'll never trust God entirely while on this earth. If we did, we'd never sin. But find out what it is about what you're most worried about that you have kept back from God.

Then offer it to Him. Give up your control over it, because you never really had control anyway. Let Him work and see what He can do when you just let Him.
