Right at the beginning of your meeting ask your group members to make a list of everything that is on their minds. Tell them they don't have to write sentences about it just simply a word, i.e. work, children, grocery shopping … After giving them 2 minutes to comprise that list ask them if they would now go back to their list and write a word beside each word of the original list that describes how they are feeling about that particular thing.
For example:
Things on my mind - How I feel
Work - frustrated
Children - worry
Grocery shopping - dislike
Now, ask your group to take one of those items and share it with everyone. After everyone has had an opportunity to share their answers take a moment to pray for the group. Pray that they would be able to place those things in God's hands and to trust Him completely with their concerns.
