Rest
Discussion Questions:
1. As we wrap up the Adulting series tonight, what has been the most helpful thing for you? What are you personally taking away from this series that will help to “adult well” moving forward?
2. Read Matthew 11:28-30 together as a group. What is this passage of Scripture pointing out for us about rest?
3. This section of Scripture points out that we are to bring our burdens to the Lord, Does knowing this give you confidence to bring things to the Lord? If so, in what ways?
4. Finding rest in the Lord is done by being in His presence. Do you find it difficult to set aside time to be in the presence of God? What are some of those difficulties and what are some ways as a group we can be more intentional with one another about being in the presence of God daily?
5. Read Hebrews 4:15 together as a group. This verse reminds us that Jesus faced everything we face yet did not sin. Jesus intentionally rested and met with His father. In what ways does this show us our need for rest in our own lives? What importance does resting well have on the way we live our lives?
In what ways does resting well affect how we “adult” ?
Challenge : Memorize Matthew 11:38 this week. Put it in front of you consistently and remind yourself of the rest that you can find in the Lord. Remember that you can bring your burdens before Him and that He will help you in those areas.
