Here are the reflection questions and faith challenge:

In the last year, when did you feel the most connected to God, family, and nature?  Where were you?  Who was with you?

Has there ever been a time in your life when you felt God calling you to “come?”  What was God calling you to do?  Whatever God was calling you to do; whether it was caring for a neighbor in need, forgiving a family member, coming to church, taking a step of growth in some area of your life,  reading your bible, or giving more faithfully: did you do it?  Remember Peter this week, a fallible man, just like us, and commit to follow through on what God is calling you to?  Make sure to share with someone you trust what God is calling you to do.

Here’s the reflection questions and faith challenge:

What’s your story? Psalm 23 refreshes and refocuses our journey with God.  As we place our trust in God’s parental care, we are invited to marvel in God’s revelation (v.1), to rest in God’s creation (v. 2, 3, and 4), to face the realities of life with the courage of God’s presence (v. 4), to repent or change the way we think and act about ourselves and others, and to experience restoration with God, ourselves, and others (v. 5 & 6).  Which of God’s gifts, (i.e. revelation, rest, realities, repentance, and restoration) are you most in need of?  This week ask God to refresh and renew your faith.  Pick one of the 5 R’s and put it into practice.

Here’s the Questions for Reflection and Faith Challenge:

Who has impacted your journey with God?  Whose shown you God’s love in the past month?  This week think about the ‘Gospel Webs’ of friendship that make up your life and drop that person a note of thanks or maybe even give them a phone call to express your care and support.
