DIG DEEPER & DISCUSS

Think of a person in your life who best demonstrates this quality of “presence.” How do they make you feel? Is there anything specific that this person does that communicates value to you and makes you feel safe?

Read some of the Scripture passages referenced in this section (Genesis 16:7-14; Luke 4:18-27; 10:38-42). What story or conversation of Jesus best illustrates the quality of presence to you?

This week we were challenged to be present with the people around us. Which of the following did you attempt? How did it go? a. Focus on being present in the conversations you have. Stop multitasking. Listen.

b. Be yourself in conversations. Stop trying to impress or dominate.

c. Listen to God while you talk to people. Invite him into your interactions.

d. Practice humility in your conversations, especially with those in your family and others closest to you.

e. Let go of your agenda and strategy and just go with it.
