Too Cool

I am really enjoying my bible study.

We are a group of 6-7 Christian women from different churches who meet once a week. Every Friday morning will find us at one of our homes (never mine because of the kiddos), drinking coffee, eating snacks and doing our study.

Right now we are doing one on Friendship. Really, it is about love and God's command for us to love others. Our discussions are so rich, and we each get so much out of sharing and hearing what others have to share. Sometimes the lessons are more intense than others, but today it felt like the lesson was speaking directly to me.

Keep on loving each other as brothers. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it. Hebrews 13: 1-2

Do you know what that's like? To read a passage in the bible and have it resonate throughout your whole body and mind and soul? It's like God reaching out / in and saying "this one's for you, Sue". I love that.

We spend time in prayer at the end of each study. We pray for each other. It is so refreshing and supportive to know there's a group of believers I can pray and share things with. And it has really helped me to be more in the Word.

Strange how much it has grown on me. Considering I wouldn't even open it up a few years ago.

So glad you found TSMS and will be joining us next weekend. Make sure you link onto the Aug. 2 post and not onto the inaugural edition and also be sure to link just your TSMS Saturday post, not your blog. Just a few helpful tips so everyone can find you. Can't wait to see what song you post! Have a great week.
