Risk it
Last night my small group leaders, Ben and Michelle, allowed me to lead the group discussion from the Nooma Video, “Dust”. I hadn’t led a small group for a while (at least in an official “life group” setting), and I had a great time doing it again.
So the end result of the discussion was about risk and how it connects with the idea of surrender to God.
i.e. we don’t risk anything because we want control of every situation.
I don’t know about you, but I want to be known as someone who would wisely risk it all because that’s what God wants me to do. So I started asking myself some questions that I thought I might share with you. See how good you have done in the area of risk.
When was the last time I have risked something big for God?
In the past,what have I struggled giving to God?
What am I not willing to risk because it is too important to me?
In what areas am I safe and comfortable that might be a hindrance to growth in the future?
What is God asking me to risk today?

Hi Marty,
That is so great that led the small group again. I know that when I’m not willing to risk, it’s because I have way too small of a picture of God. His plans are huge for me and way bigger than anything I could hope to control. Which I try to do on a daily basis, the deal is to remember to surrender on a daily basis after I try to control everything!
