Encounter how we can go to Jesus with our struggles and develop an eye-opening faith with four clear steps that students can follow when they pray.

Challenge:

Read Mark 10:42-56

Pray for 5 minutes each day. This week, try being silent. Close your eyes, listen to the sounds around you, and focus on your feelings. What do you feel and hear? Where does your mind wander? What do you think God is trying to show you?

Reflect:

Make a list with 2 columns. Write one column with everything you typically focus on, think about, worry about, and put your daily energy to. Make the other column all about your hopes and dreams, who you want to be, what you want God to do in your life, and things you’ve noticed God doing in you.

1. Compare the two columns. Are there any overlaps or similarities? Any conflicting ideas?

2. Is there anything you feel is missing from your list?

3. Where is God in your list? Is there anything you can invite God into?
