Today, I'd like us to dive into the Romans lesson for the week from Chapter 10:5-15.  Attached, you'll find the reading from the Message interpretation that I like to use with the youth.

I often find myself getting exhausted trying to always do the right thing.  Does that ever happen to you?  This passage reminds me, that many times, we tend to over-complicate things.  Sometimes, we need to give up (our fierce need to prove our 'worth' or our ideas of what things are 'supposed' to look like), in order to give space to what God is trying to do in us, with us and through us.  We need a reminder, that it's not about us, it's about trusting what God has promised to do; to save us.  God doesn't do this because of anything you or I might do, that never-ending-rat-race of trying to prove our worth is something we created, while trying to play God.  God does this because God is generous and loves us beyond our comprehension.

-This week, what can you give up trying to do, in order that God might have space to work in/with/through you?

Just a reminder that we continue to have weekly Zoom hangouts throughout this time.

The Confirmation age group meets on Tuesdays from 4-5pm.
