Join us at Brisbane Central as we commence a new series titled, Be Still. This week Pastor Neli invites us into a space of encounter with God, reminding us of the importance of making time for God both in the good times and amidst the busyness of life. Drawing from Jesus’ example of retreating to desolate places for prayer and rest, be encouraged to cultivate a designated space and time for daily encounter and reflection with God. Just as Jesus prioritised communion with the Father even amidst crowds and demands, we’re reminded to seek God’s presence when life is both abundant and overwhelming. So, whether life is thriving or bustling, let’s carve out moments to be still, to encounter God, and to find solace in His presence, knowing that He is always there, ready to meet us in the quiet spaces of our hearts.
Now many saw them going and recognised them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. – Mark 6:33-34 (ESV)
