Summary

You love Jesus. You're trying to do the right things. You're not running from God. You're serving God. Yet somehow the very responsibilities you've taken on have become the source of your anxiety. The pace of life has crowded out the peace of Christ.

Sermon Questions

2. What "many things" are competing for your heart right now?
3. Have you ever found yourself asking the same question Martha asked: "Lord, don't You care?"
4. What would it practically look like for you to "choose the better portion" this week?
5. The sermon's main application was: "Before you give Jesus your work, give Him your attention." What is one concrete step you will take this week to live that out?
