Welcome to Church Simplified
A simplified approach to being the church discovering a close personal relationship with the godhead
Have you noticed that God often has a different plan?
“I don’t think the way you think. The way you work isn’t the way I work.” God’s Decree.
If Jesus struggled with it, so will you
Jesus, God the Son, struggles with fulfilling the plan of God.
How do you surrender?
My Bible instructor’s story is powerful because it illustrates that a surrendered life means acknowledging the prompting of God, the Holy Spirit, to do something that (in many cases) makes no sense.
What to do when Your will stands between you and surrendering to God?
If you listen (allow me a bit of humor), you will hear the Apostle Paul say, “Good, because you don’t have to.”
I surrender: my will VS God’s will
In other words, God thinks eternally, while humanity thinks temporally, which explains why Jesus struggled in the garden. His human nature was wrestling with the temporal idea of dying.
Is this how you listen?
Are you willing to take one week (seven days) to interact with God through this filter, Lord, help me listen to you to understand?
