Quote

In Rebuilding Your Broken World, Gordon MacDonald suggests twenty-six questions to help develop accountability and invite feedback. If we desire to grow, we should submit our selves to a spiritual mentor and answer these questions honestly.
1. How is your relationship with God right now?
2. What have you read in the Bible in the past week?
3. What has God said to you in this reading?
4. Where do you find yourself resisting Him these days?
5. What specific things are you praying for in regard to yourself?
7. What are the specific tasks facing you right now that you consider incomplete?
8. What habits intimidate you?
9. What have you read in the secular press this week?
10. What general reading are you doing?
11. What have you done to play?
12. How are you doing with your spouse? Kids?
13. If I were to ask your spouse about your state of mind, state of spirit, state of energy level, what would the response be?
14. Are you sensing spiritual attacks from the enemy right now?
15. If Satan were to try to invalidate you as a person or as a servant of the Lord, how might he do it?
16. What is the state of your sexual perspective? Tempted? Dealing with fantasies? Entertainment?
17. Where are you financially right now? (Things under control? under anxiety? in great debt?)
18. Are there any unresolved conflicts in your circle of relationships right now?
19. When was the last time you spent time with a good friend of your own gender?
20. What kind of time have you spent with anyone who is a non-Christian this month?
21. What challenges do you think you're going to face in the coming week? Month?
22. What would you say are your fears at this present time?
23. Are you sleeping well?
24. What three things are you most thankful for?
25. Do you like yourself at this point in your pilgrimage?
26. What are your greatest confusions about your relationship with God?

Our Sunday Teaching

 

Most Sunday's we follow a theme at St. Margaret's. In the first part of 2012 we are following the theme"God Speaks to Us." We are looking at how God spoke to different people in the Bible and how that might translate to our lives. The full teaching notes can be found by going up to the menu and clicking "About Us" and then scrolling down to "Teaching".

This week looking at the conversion of Paul and how Jesus spoke to him.

 

 

Thought for the Week

 

There are certain obstacles only God can overcome - things He

can do for us that are impossible for us to achieve. We cannot

sort out our guilt and make right everything that is wrong in

our lives - we need forgiven and only He can grant us that.

There are times in our lives when we are very conscious of how

weak we are and that can truly be a wonderful condition to be

in. It is when we realise that we are weak that we can turn to

the one who is stronger than us or indeed anything - he can

overcome for us what humanly speaking is an unsurmountable

obstacle.

Think of young David going out against Goliath. He did not go

against the Philistine giant in his own strength but in the strength

and power of God - that was the source of his confidence. Is

there a giant or a mountain in your life that seems impossible?

You name it and accept your weakness but then turn to the God,

who in Christ overcame the greatest of obstacles and ask that his

power might overcome through you.
