Questions for week August 25th - 31st

Hard 2 Love

Part 1

Needy Ned

Acts 3

1) Just for fun: What famous person have you been told you look like?

2) Although this series is about the people in our lives that are hard to love, at some time in our lives, though, we were the one that was hard to love.  When taking a look at yourself, what is it about you that would make others have a hard time loving you (Ex. Maybe you have been judgmental, unsympathetic, don’t take anything seriously, hard for someone to get close relationally close to, etc.)

3) If you have grown through and overcame the issue you named in the previous question, when it comes to others that deal with the same thing you did, how do you respond to them?  Are you sympathetic, encourage to them, able to connect with them because you get them, etc.?

4) What is your natural reaction when you come in contact with emotionally needy people?

5) When thinking about some of the needy people in your life, what is it that they really want (Ex. attention, love, acceptance, etc.)?  What is it that that person really needs?  How can you help them get that need met?

6) Real love doesn't always come to the rescue, sometimes real love allows for the results. How are you with stepping aside and allowing the ones you love to experience consequences for their actions? Share a time that was most difficult for you?

End your time with your Life Group praying for God to help you connect the “Needy Neds” in your life to the one who can change theirs.
