All is good right now.. in fact.. WOW.. God is answering my prayers left and right lately!!
Also.. I have been going to a bible 'study' for about 1 1/2 yrs. We are reading through the bible and just started Joshua. Tonight I learned something..maybe some of you knew this but I did not. Remember Rahab the harlot? So Joshua and Caleb went and stayed at her house right? She hid them and she got rewarded for it. What I did not know is that the reason they stayed with her is that as a prostitute, she knew the town's secrets. Caleb and Joshua learned everything they needed to know about Jericho. You may or not agree but the discussion was super interesting.
We started in Genesis.. Some are church goers..most are not. No one attends the denomination or non denomination of the facilitators. In fact the couple told their 'church' that no one in their congregation was allowed to attend the bible study. Go figure!
It began with the sister of the facilitator to do a bible study as she wanted to learn to read and understand the bible. This was 2 yrs ago. The sister's sister and BIL agreed and by word of mouth, she invited a couple of people she knew (I being one of them) and then they began inviting others. Our 'attendance' has been about 12...but tonight we had 26-27 people! It is held at a home. We are also a roudy group. We ask questions..interrupt.. joke around making people laugh all while being serious and listening what the Spirit is teaching us.
We all bring food and eat throughout the study but mostly at the beginning. We pray before we start and at the end of the study. This is definitely a GOD THING... LOTS OF LOVE bombing going around..but it is genuine..
Looking forward to what God has up His sleeve with this bunch.
Love your enthusiasm SOG..
keep it up. There are lots of broken hearts on this forum that need uplifting, encouraging and healing.
I have been meditating on
Psalm 103 for about a week now.. also
Psalm 23..
Blessings of Peace and Joy to all..
