The Vineyard- October 30, 2011

The Vineyard
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5

Mark 6:30-44
-          Jesus enlists His disciples in an effort to feed the multitudes.  While Jesus performs the miracle, the disciples provide the means.  Are you freely offering your means to God to be used by Him?
-          Jesus takes the bread, acknowledges God, blesses it, divides it, and then gives it.  Is giving of what you have a regular part of how you thank God for your blessings?

Mark 6:45-52
-          The disciples react to Jesus’ saving presence with fear rather than joy.  How have you reacted to Jesus’ offer of salvation?
-          Do you trust Jesus to have power over the forces that cause chaos in your life? 
-          Would you recognize Jesus if He came walking toward you?

Matthew 6:25-32
-          Worry is being concerned about things we cannot control.  How much time do you spend worrying about things in your life you have no control over?
-          What cares and concerns beyond your control do you need to turn over to God?
