Gosh it has been a long time since I’ve posted anything.  I apologize for the silence.  I went into a bit of slump/depression over the summer and had to pray my way out of it. I am so glad to be back in the new monthly meetings and loving the changes. We had a lady by the name of Eva Dell Mitchell speak to us at our September meeting. If you missed it, she was absolutely amazing. Her story was so very raw, and yet so very powerful. 

What is it that you have repeatedly asked for from God through prayer, but have still not seen that prayer answered? And, why is this thing so important to you?

 Do you ever struggle with insecurity or compare yourself to anyone else? Does it help to know that every person – Every. Person. Struggles with some level of insecurity or compares herself to other women.

Have you ever thought about walking away at some point? Job, marriage, kids, family, friends? Stress, disappointment, loneliness, weariness, and so many other emotions can make you want to give up – walk away – keep driving – escape. Anybody?

I Cor. 1:10-11 “I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought. My brothers, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you.”

1 Corinthians 12 :12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14 Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.15 Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body.16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body.17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?18 But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. 19 If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, but one body.21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” 22 On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 23 and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty,24 while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it,25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. 26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.
