Let's get to know each other a bit! You'll notice that I will often post things the night before. I do this so that those of you early birds will have each day's message first thing.
The first week I will ask a few getting to know you questions. Throughout the study, on Monday's I will ask a question to keep conversation flowing. Wednesday's we will share how God is blessing us. Friday's we will share prayer requests and praise. Please feel free to share anytime throughout the week as well.
1- Your Name, Spouse's Name, Kids Names and Ages
Nicki, Luke, Zac is 2, Lucy is 16 months. They are 13 months apart and best friends!
2- What is something that happened in the past week that made your heart happy?
Seeing that God has placed new friends in this group to study with me has my heart pretty happy tonight!
Reuniting with a high school friend that just moved back to town and seeing what a great Mama she is to her 2 sweet boys. Being able to talk about God with her is something I would have never imagined we would be doing. God is so good in how He works in our lives!
3- What areas do you struggle to "Live Like Jesus"?
Getting frustrated easily!
4- In what ways has God changed you to be more like Jesus in your walk with Him?
Being more selfless. Realizing that less is more. Getting my priorities straight, God first! Submitting to my husband and letting him lead our marriage and family. And so much more! And He never stops changing me to be more like Jesus! I have so much more to learn.
5- What do you feel like God is teaching you recently? Is there a verse that comes to mind often? A lesson or virtue? For example, patience, love, grace, gentleness, etc.I feel like God is teaching me to love more.
To love when it's difficult. To love my neighbor (literally). We have a difficult neighbor and I know that they are there for a reason. God has taught me to stop being so frustrated with them and just love them. It was a hard lesson, but there is so much more peace now that I don't let them get under my skin. I have changed my attitude to love and serve them and see it as a way to show them God's love. I need to always remember that we are ALL wretched sinners in God's eyes and I am no better than anyone else! Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice for me. Thank you for making my sins clean when you died on the cross for me!
