When You Follow Jesus...নমুনা

STOP and put aside distractions, grab your Bible, pen, and notebook, take a couple of slow, deep breaths, and get cozy.

INVITE Jesus to meet you and tell yourself that God is always present with you, whether you feel something or not today.

READ the Bible passage(s) twice slowly. We recommend using a physical paper Bible for this part. Come back to this screen after you do the readings.

REFLECT on what stands out to you from the passage with these questions (if doing this with the group, respond in the comments with your thoughts).

1- Read Luke 18:18-23. What is the rich young ruler like? What keeps him from giving?

2- Can you think of a time when what you "have" held you back? What keeps you from feeling able to give? Talk to God about that.

PRAY and REST for a few minutes, and let whatever comes to mind rise up. Don’t dismiss anything that comes to you; just talk to God.

RESPOND by asking God if there is anything from your time today that may encourage others, be helpful to share, or may be a question others have (from the reflect questions). Share it today!
