Discussion: Perspective

What’s the biggest problem you’ve ever faced?
What’s the biggest worry or fear you have?
What’s the farthest you’ve ever walked? 

How did you feel when you were done with that walk?
If earth were the size of a golfball, then the sun would be big enough to fill a school bus full of golf balls

The next star out I want to talk about is betelgeuse. It’s twice as big as the orbit of earth around the sun. That’s the height of 6 empire state buildings on top of each other if earth were a golf ball.

The next star is the biggest we know about and is called canis majoris. If the earth were a golf ball, this star would be the height of mount everest.

Does that change how you feel about your worries?
Matt 6:31-33

So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
The way we “seek first his kingdom” is just 2 commandments. 

Love the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and love your neighbor as yourself. (Mark 12:30-31)
