Matthew
18:12
“What do you think?”
In
pondering Christ’s death and resurrection, many feelings of wonder,
fear, and longing arise. The youth of our church share their
wonders, fears, and longings in the hope that you might also take
time to consider what images these feelings arouse in you. Their
responses range from pensive to playful, demonstrating the breadth of
human feeling.
Scripture:
Luke 5:26 They were filled with wonder.
I
wonder...
- why we rush to judge others
- why some people are bad
- where the universe ends
- why we sleep at night and are active during the day
- how to get rid of bad dreams
- why we cook bacon but bake cookies
Scripture:
Isaiah 43:5 “Do not be afraid, for I am with you.”
I
fear…
- clowns
- needles
- dying
- others dying
- fear
- drowning
- sharks
- guns
- dark
- snakes
- spiders
- failure
- thunder and lightning
Scripture:
Mark 10:51 “What do you want me to do for you?”
I
long for...
- an end to bullying
- peace
- a loving family
- selflessness
- friends
- world peace
I
give You these stirrings inside me. I give You my discontent, I
give You my restlessness, I give You my doubt. I give You my
despair, I give You all the longings I hold inside. (The
