Lessons From a Quarantine – Week Three
This has been a crazy few months for all us because of Covid-19, the quarantine and racial tensions. There are so many emotions and fears, which leave us with many questions. We’ll tackle some of these concerns by examining:
- What fear does to us.
- Questions that fear causes us to ask.
- Ways in which to grow your faith to withstand fear.
- Fear does different things to us.
Fear robs us of our joy.
Fear clouds our judgment.
Fear breeds more fear.
- There are some questions that fear causes us to ask.
Did God cause it? Following Jesus will put us in uncomfortable situations because He cares most about our character and becoming more like Him.
Does God care? Jesus does care. He is present and responds to our stress and anxiety.
Why are you so afraid? Jesus has the power to make a difference.
Do you still have no faith?
Who is this man? Jesus is awe-inspiring in His power.
Faith isn’t the absence of fear, it’s not forgetting who’s really in control.
- There are some ways to grow your faith to withstand fear.
Faith is believing when I don’t see it.
Faith is obeying when I don’t understand it.
Faith is persisting when I don’t feel like it.
Faith is thanking God before I receive it.
Faith is trusting God even if I don’t get it.
Faith isn’t the absence of fear, it’s not forgetting who’s really in control.
