Sermon Highlights 

  • “I feel closer to God when I am kinder to others.”

  • “We don’t get to choose the people that God has placed in our lives, but we do get to choose how we see the people in our lives.”

  • “You don’t need more. You need the faith to see what you already have in your hands, and the courage to give it over to Jesus.”

  • “When we’re facing a ‘not enough’ moment, our first prayer should be, ‘Lord, change what I see.’”

  • “Having compassion is less about signing up to serve and more about who’s right in front of you.”

  • “You don’t need more. You need the faith to see what you already have in your hands, and the courage to give it over to Jesus.” What has God given you in your hands? What would it look like to give that over to Jesus?

  • “Having compassion is less about signing up to serve and is more about who is right in front of you.” Who has God placed right in front of you, and how might God be calling you to show them compassion? 

Additional Questions 

  • “I feel closer to God when I am kinder to others.” Share about a time you’ve seen this play out in your life. 

  • Holly shared about “Spiritual Amnesia – forgetting the things that God has done for you.” When has God met a need in your life that you can look back on to remember His faithfulness.

Prayer Prompt

Pastor Holly taught us: “When we’re faced with ‘not enough’ moments, our first prayer should be, ‘Lord, change what I see.’” 

Ask your eGroup where they’re currently facing “not enough” moments. Pray that God will help them change what they see, and that they will have the courage to hand everything over to Jesus by faith.
