Action: Finding God in the midst of challenging situations.
This is a simple Prayer Station that has helped many people who come in to a prayer room in the midst of a storm. We live in a challenging world and all to often we are juggling many different things when we come to worship, in my experience we normally don’t even fully realise the amount we carry. Taking a simple peice of paper and writing down all the things that cause us stress, worry and make us feel out of balance then asking God to come in to each one individually and take control can often be liberating. Then when we understand that God is in control we can symbolically tear up the paper and throw it in the trash knowing that we no longer need to struggle by ourself with the issues.
Note: Be careful not to present the idea that the person praying problems are trash but that God has control and is taking care of them.
Items needed: Explanation cards, Paper, Pens, Rubbish Bin
The Cartoon is from Asbojesus‘s superb cartoon blog. John Birch the creator has often amazed me with his ability of conveying with a picture concepts which I could not fully expound in a essay. Please take a good look around his site, there are some real jems.
