This week's study guide for "Sitting At The Feet Of Rabbi Jesus" asked a very poignant question: If you were sitting at the feet of Rabbi Jesus, what would you ask?
The conversation among the Women of Grace Members sparked more thought-provoking questions:
- Why won't people believe You are the Son of God?
- What's next - How can I get more of you?
- How can I truly make You (Christ) a priority in my life amidst my other priorities?
Other comments were revelations from the Holy Spirit and changed the lens through which we view our lives:
- Christ was there from the beginning of my life - through all the tragedies and sufferings - and I would not change a thing.
- Asking for a change in others allows the Holy Spirit to work a change in you.
- Once you commit your life to Christ, your past has nothing to do with your future.
Women of Grace, thank you for committing to mini-challenges this week in an effort to focus more on Christ:
Mini-Challenges
- BE HUMBLE - Give an hour this week to Christ, giving up an hour of TV, Internet, or (your choice here) and study the Word during that hour. Psalm 25:9
- BE PRESENT - Allow God to show you He is with you. 1 Corinthians 4:20-21
- BE PURPOSEFUL - Start your day with Him. John 6:38
- BE GRATEFUL - Reflect on your life and see how God has been with you the whole time; see how His grace has carried you. Psalm 92:1-2
Father God, this is our prayer for the Women of Grace everywhere:
"For this reason also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and long suffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be the partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light." Colossians 1:9-12
In Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
