Quick Question: Why Do Bad Things Happen?Sample

This verse talks about remaining in Jesus.  

When you hear the term remain in me, what do you think of?  

What Jesus is talking about here is the fact that he wants us to stay connected to him.  When we stay connected to Jesus, we will grow and produce fruit. But, when we choose to not stay connected to Jesus, we will be in an unhealthy place.  

What steps can you take to make sure you remain close to Jesus no matter what is happening in your life?  

Remember, he wants to be with you on your best days and your worst days.  All you have to do is to choose to remain close to him.

Challenge:  Today, we challenge you to remain close to Jesus no matter what your situation is.  Take time to think about ways to do that and make sure you put those things into action.  We also challenge you to tell someone about your plans so they can help you and remind you to remain close to Jesus.
