Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: Colossians 3: 15-17

From the Sermon:

____________________-  that which we engage in to help us grow in our relationship with God.

Spiritual disciplines can be engaged in as ______________ or in ____________.

If ___________ is seeking God’s will and way for us as a church, and these are some ____________ that can help us ask God to make clear that vision for us together.

Thanksgiving is ______________________________________________________. 

Paul was so ________ and _______ for what God had done in his life.

_________ gives us moments throughout the day give us the opportunity to stop and focus on God and be reminded of God’s goodness.

When we forget God’s _________,  it doesn’t take much for us to look to other places for life and fulfillment apart from God - quickly getting off track.

Reflection Questions:

How much of it would you say is intercession or asking God for things - usually on the behalf of yourself or other people? And how much of your time in prayer is spent telling God thank you?

What would it look like to live into Paul’s word to that particular church, here and now today?

Ways to Practice Thanksgiving:

Start your time of prayer off by saying thank you to God for something that happened during the day. 

We can have the eyes of our hearts open during the week for the movement of God. 

Find another person in the congregation to share your thanksgivings with throughout the week.
