Minding God

Being Mindful of God’s Power

Rev. Ho-Ming Tsui

Scripture: Psalm 46

Two Disciplines to Steady us in Difficult Times:

———

1. “Be Still” - ie Stop Trying to Rule the World

Worry is this deep sense that we know better than God how life ought to go (See Matthew 6:25)

Wrong Mindset: When the world is out of OUR control, the world is out of control.

Right Mindset: God is in control, and I will learn to trust him

The human experience - with all its joys and sorrows - is incomplete until God is in the picture (see Romans 8:28; Genesis 50:20)

Believe there is a reason for whatever he allows:

• Understand him more;

• Understand yourself better

• Re-prioritize something in your life

• Grow to be more like Jesus

2. “Know that I am God” - Seek shelter in the right place

Conclusion: Are you Mind-full or Mindful?
