What does it mean to walk by faith? Do I have to read the bible? How do I begin to follow Christ? What does that look like? What does it mean to live a Christ Centered life? Exploring Faith should be an individual journey for each of us. No one else has had the same experiences and circumstances as you. Hopefully, each of our journeys, though, lead us all to the same place...to God.
Tonights message at Willow Creek Community Church was about worry. When Pastor Paul JVR asked how worry shows up in our lives, my first instinct was to say that I am sure in my faith and that I don't worry, but as Paul talked and the worship leaders sang, I realized that is not true. Worry for me shows up in the form of fear, the fear of failure, the fear of the unknown future. I am building a new life for myself and this time I want to build it on Rock not sand. I want to be strong and act like I have it all figured out, but I don't. Paul JVR said to give worry to God and to choose tonight to say, "I will never again worry". I surrender my fears to God and will trust day by day that he is leading and guiding him. Like Paul asked us tonight, I pray that each of you figure out in what form worry shows up in your life, and then surrender it to God.
