Menlo Midweek: Sitting with God | Brett Koerten

Join Mark and Jess as we chat with Brett about how not to be scared of the future.

Have you ever worried or wondered about what comes next? Or made plans based on being able to influence what will happen in the future? It is, after all, only human to want to take control of what happens in our lives. But what if in our desire to grab control we miss what God wants to do in and through us?

David is a good example. He had plans to do something great to honor God for all that God had done for him, but God said “no”—because God had something even better planned for David. Today, we’ll discover the power that can happen when we let go of our plans and instead trust in God’s plan.

This week, practice sitting with God. Find a few moments when you can sit in silence and ask God, “Where might my plans be keeping me from seeing your promises in my life?”
