The Vineyard- November 18, 2012


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

Matthew 6:25-34
-          What does this passage tell us not to do?
-          How is it possible for us to not be anxious? 
-          What does this passage tell us about our worth in God’s eyes?
-          Is there a difference between planning for tomorrow, and being anxious about tomorrow?
-          Is your anxiety about the future driven more by not having things, or not having certain kinds of things?
-          Is your life defined by the pursuit of things, or the pursuit of God?  Which do you think is more likely to lead you to lasting joy?

Thanksgiving
-          What type of material blessings do you have to be thankful for?  Does your desire for better things, ever hinder your ability to be thankful for the things that you do have?
-          What relationships do you have that you are thankful for?  Do you ever allow relationships from the past, or relationships you wish you had, blind you to the value of the relationships you have now? 
-          What are you thankful for regarding your relationship with God?  Do you ever elevate other relationships, or even other things, above that relationship?  How can you live your life in a way that demonstrates your thankfulness?
