Let's have a Dance Party with Jesus!
🍊🍊 Blessed Chinese New Year! 🍊🍊
Godly Contentment is Great Gain
During the Chinese New Year, are you out to get as many ang pows as possible? Or are you out to bless and be a blessing to all those you visit, or when you host your relatives in your home?
Look at Abba Father's love - He lavishes His love upon you. Will you be contented and seek out to be generous this Chinese New Year?
📖 Read Matthew 6:19-21 for the whole story.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Philippians 4:6
Question 1: Where do you see the generosity of God in the world, your life, or the story of the Bible? What are you most grateful for?
Question 2: What are you anxious about? Reflect on God’s love and care and how you can trust God.
Question 1: In times of difficulties, we focus on what we don’t have and we start to worry. Do you experience this? What would you and others around you gain by trusting God’s generous love instead?
Question 2: This passage includes a special command to the rich to be generous. While we might not be rich in wealth, we have all been given gifts that we can share with others, like our time, care, prayer, resources, etc. Reflect on what you can share specifically, and with whom.
Question 1: In this passage, Paul says that becoming rich is found in Jesus. What does this mean? Is Paul talking about worldly wealth or something else?
Question 2: The Macedonians joyfully gave in the midst of trial and poverty. As a group, they made a huge impact. What groups can you join with to do something meaningful in this time?
