Even Jesus Asked For Help (pt 2)

Tuesday Sep 21, 2021

“My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow, even to the point of death!” Maybe you can identify with Jesus’ troubling words. Many of us fear rejection, losing control, fear of appearing needy but the benefits of asking for help outweigh the fears. Asking for help betters your relationship with others and allows others to be blessed themselves! Let’s join Greg as he explores more benefits of asking others for help.

Hold On (part 2)

Tuesday Sep 14, 2021

“She is holding on but barely, gripping whatever she can to keep it together for another day…“- J.M. Strom

Maybe that’s where you are right now. When we get to the point where we don’t feel like we can go on, that’s the point our faith becomes real. Jesus warned us that we are going to have troubles. Jesus also assures us that we are never alone - Jesus will never leave or forsake us. While you are busy holding on, you are being held. Let’s gather some hope and encouragement through Psalm 40.
