Sabbath. Study. Serve.

 Sabbath, Study, Serve 

Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: John 11: 1-44

From the Sermon:

Jesus told the disciples, “Our friend, _____________,  is asleep”. 

__________ is a hard thing to talk about.

The sisters of Lazarus, ___________________________, are sitting smack dab in the middle of the ugliness of grief.

They cry out to Jesus a statement that perhaps you have made at one time or another “__________ you would have been here, Jesus.”

We live into the tension of knowing that ____________ to be with us in Entirety and that _________________ to be with us right now, here today, on Earth.

We are all _______________________ that we do not even recognize and they are suffocating us.

Reflection Questions:

Tell of a time when you asked God where he was. How did you receive assurance?

Where does our hope lie?

Prayer:

Lord, as we begin this Lenten journey let us remember that we are dust and to dust that we will return, but that we are also yours and yours alone. Amen.
