Ladies, Ladies...LADIES!!!
I NEED Bible study tomorrow night! Don't you girls??? If the temps stay up...we will have it..even if there are some flakes as long as they aren't sticking! God has something special in store in the lessons on Forgiving and Speaking! I'm praying He speaks to us in a special sweet way that we will all leave feeling refreshed and ready for battle!
I was reminded today that it is definitely a battle. The world accuses us of being judgemental and yet they judge us in the same breathe as they call us hypocrites. They mock our faith and require perfection of us yet expect grace and all understanding toward themselves. They call us fake and yet they live a life far apart from God's word and his house and his followers and yet would tell you they "love Jesus" and are on their way to heaven and yet live a life of habitual sin. What a good job the enemy is doing to deceive them! In my experience today I was gently comforted by the Holy Spirit who dwells within me, and my Father...that I know that I know...was holding me close and being so affirming that He knows my heart. He KNOWS my heart....my intentions, my desires, my prayers, my tears he holds every one. He is the one I am accountable to...not the world. He also reminded me that he was mocked. He was hated...to the point that they killed the innocent lamb of God and mocked him as he hung in anguish. His scriptures tell us we will be hated. His word is truth. But I am reminded as well that his Word tells us He has overcome the world. Hallelujah!!! I have a job that only I can do. I have a purpose. Jeremiah 29:11 says so. I am important to the King of kings and Lord of lords. I am HIS child! Hallelujah again!
Let's pray for good weather and for good attendance and let's WORSHIP Him tomorrow night! He is WORTHY!!!!
I love you girls!
