A Word from Pastor Angie
In Luke 10:38-44 we find a woman, by the name of Martha, whom is overly occupied, too busy, distracted, anxious and troubled about many things. I think this is a pretty good picture of many women today. God, however, never meant our lives to be overly occupied, too busy, and full of distractions and troubles. Eph. 2:10 in the amplified Bible says, “For we are God’s (own) handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, (born anew) that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us (taking paths which He prepared ahead of time) that we should walk in them (living the good life which He arranged and made ready for us to live).
God has a wonderful life planned for each one of us, but many live and die and never walk the path of his perfect will because they fail to find out enough about Him to cooperate with His plan. Prov. 4:5-7 tells us that Godly wisdom is the principle thing! Godly wisdom is comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God. It is this wisdom that will affect all other areas of our lives. In Luke 10 we see that Martha has a sister named Mary who we find sitting at Jesus’ feet listening to His teachings. Jesus makes this comment to Martha, “Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things; there is need of only one or but for a few things. Mary has chosen the good portion (that which is to her advantage), which shall not be taken from her.”
I encourage you to join us on Monday evenings as we take opportunity in prayer and the Word of God, making room in our lives for God’s plan and provisions, each meeting is full of practical insight from God’s Word on how we can live in this world as “Women of Wisdom” We cover such things as:
Covenant Love—“Who God is in our lives.”
The Battle for your minds
What is Faith
Managing your Emotions
Recognizing and Eliminating Strongholds
Upcoming Meetings
Word of Encouragement
You are the only you there is. There is not one person on this earth that could take your place. You are not an accident, a mishap, or a mistake. I don’t care what you did yesterday-God has a specific purpose just for you and He desires you to fulfill it! He loves you- HE IS LOVE. You were born and original, embrace who God made you, how He made you, and the purpose He designed you for. Psalm 139:13-18 NLT “God made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous- and how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God! They are innumerable! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! AND WHEN I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING, YOU ARE STILL WITH ME!”
