Realize that I am not God!
We talked about the many ways we all try to play God at times and how that brings fear, frustration, fatigue and failure to our lives. The solution is to stop trying to do God's job and focus instead on what God has called each of us to be...which is not the General Manager of the Universe!!!
The truth is that God created us with a need for God and others in our lives. It's not only okay but it is essential that we learn to ask for, receive and offer help. It's very freeing to know that we do not have to do it all on our own.
As I said yesterday, I want Holy Cross MCC to be a place where it is safe to be open and honest about who we are...not only lifting up our strengths, but exposing our weaknesses as well. It is when we admit our weaknesses that we become strong.
So don't miss out on this exciting journey. Join us Wednesday night as we Celebrate Recovery together. And next Sunday's sermon will be on Where to Go to Get Help When You Are Hurting. Life hurts.....but there is relief.
This is a good opportunity to invite others to join you at church. Millions of people in the US are in recovery. Let's not only celebrate that but let's join in.
Have a blessed week and remember to give God the control of your life.
