Big Idea:As we bring our weaknesses into the presence of Jesus and the life of His people, His sufficient grace forms us and His power is made evident among us.
Application: Two was to practice dependence on Jesus are the practices of Sabbath and Solitude.
Sabbath invites us to lay down our burdens and trust that God is at work even when we are not.
1. For twenty-four hours, cease striving.
2. Put down the need to perform.
3. Step away from the emails, the projects, the endless to-do lists, and receive the gift of rest.
Solitude helps us to focus in on Jesus and provide relief from the noisy world around us.
1. Find a quiet place this week.
2. Turn off the noise.
3. Put away the phone.
4. Sit alone with God.
I. And bring your weakness before Him.
II. Name the burden.
III. Name the fear.
IV. Name the thorn.
