Aside from realizing the light that was shed on my past relationships, I have also found a great congregation, women's ministry, and a young adult bible study group that I plan on continuing with. My love for God has grown even deeper this past week and I hope that no matter what trials and tribulations cross my path I will keep my faith in Him and keep walking forward with Him! He IS my Savior!
In our YABSG (young adult bible study group) we just started reading the book of James, chapter one. I will probably touch more on this in my next post as it's late right now and I need to jog my memory when I'm more "alert," but my favorite part of that passage is
"19: Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear[a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. 20: For man's anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires]. 21: So get rid of all uncleanness and the rampant outgrowth of wickedness and in a humble spirit receive and welcome the Word which implanted and rooted [in your hearts] contains the power to save your souls."I found that passage so great because it reminds me to just be patient, which anyone who knows me knows I have the biggest struggle with patience. It also reminds me to just trust in the Word and the Lord, and to not doubt anything because my life isn't meant to go MY WAY, it's meant to go HIS WAY!
The women's ministry that I "joined" meets every other Monday and is studying Beth Moore's "A Woman's Heart" bible study, but I think I am just going to go and listen/discuss what I know right now with them. I just ordered Beth Moore's "Breaking Free" bible study and hope to make time for that starting next week, but we'll see. Things have been hectic with school and work and making sure I complete everything when I need to--hence why my post is later this week.
Song of the Week :)
I'm sure I'll have more to say tomorrow after church, so until then happy daylight savings and good night! :)
