Prayer: Stay with us, Lord, hold us; guide and comfort us. Be with us in joy and sorrow. Amen.
Reading: Matthew 11: 16-19, 25-30 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: This week, we’ve been reading about Jesus being our king and being an extraordinary one at that. We have learned about a life of service and being humble in our actions. As I reflect on our readings this week, I see this theme: life in Jesus. What is our life like when we believe and follow Jesus? It is a life that is not always easy, but one that if filled with the love of God. In life, Jesus walks with us, holds our hand, and cares for us. Isn’t that good news? --Chad Hershberger
