You’re Doing What

May 14, 2020

DAILY READING

Genesis 5:5-22

FIELD NOTES

Have you ever felt led by God to do something that caused other people to question your sanity?  Join the Peace Corps?  Adopt after having several children who are already grown? Go back to school at mid-life?  

Did you do it?  What did it feel like?  Were you at peace with God?  

Following God, while hard and difficult at times, will bring us peace.  Even if only in our hearts.  And sometimes, only after years.  But it will come.  We have to trust it to be so.  

QUESTIONS FOR THE FIELD

  • What’s something crazy you’ve felt called to do?

FAMILY FIELD TALK

  • What are some big ways we can serve God?

PRAYER GUIDE

Lord, your ways are higher than ours.  Let us trust you and follow you down the path to peace.  Amen.  

FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT CHALLENGE

“May you be content knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.”
-St. Teresa of Avila
