Getting Ready! Sistas' Summer 6-week Book Club/Study

Hello Sistas!
Tuesday, June 5, is the date targeted to launch our 6-week summer book club/study online! Our study material is a small workbook, "Living Free" by Beth Moore. Even if you are not going to join our community study, I encourage you to study it on your own or even create your own group. It is an excellent study! Of course it is, it's Beth Moore! :)
Each Tuesday for 6 weeks, I plan to post a very brief  video welcoming you to the study and making a few comments.I'll briefly go over the outline of the first week and then you all will have a week -- on your own timetable -- to complete 5-day lessons. Then please come back here to my blog and hopefully you'll get some encouragement to press on and dig deeper. As I mentioned, this is an excellent study.
I encourage you to visit my blog anytime you want to make a comment, statement or ask questions. Any time! When you visit this blog and scroll down there is a place to sign in an make comments.You can see what the other sistas are thinking and learning and we'll work as a community of sistas seeking the LORD together!
For more information please scroll down -- there are two more blog posts about our study.
Let's pray God will be glorified by our desires and efforts to seek HIS face together and that we'll grow in grace and knowledge! Please feel free to invite others to join us!
I am excited! Well, as you can see, I need to get back to preparing. I have a little video to make, too!
I love you all!
Polly

The Sista is Truth Hungry

“..the truth will set you free” John 8:32   Hey Sistas, does any of this sound familiar? She has a major case of battle fatigue from believing lies from her dark enemy. She’s been absorbing these lifelong lies about herself: that she’s worthless, good-for-nothing, and unforgiveable. She is truth hungry! Sometimes it’s so hard for her to feed herself the truth of God’s word because she’s exhausted from trying to resist the deceitful voices screaming in her head. Sometimes she gives into the lies and then clothes herself in guilt, shame, fear and anxiety. Her weariness wakes up her old belief system and it creates sleepless nights. Even her daylight hours seem to drag on and on. However, since she’s a Christ-follower, this doesn’t happen to her every day, it’s just when she doesn’t put on the spiritual armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18).   “If you hold onto my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). The blo...

soul starving...anorexic faith

Image
If I don't take a few brief moments to talk to God before my feet hit the floor in the morning, then I'll be starving my own soul of the strength and nourishment I'm going to need for the new day. I'll be hungry listening to my own voice, focusing on my own circumstances, and coming to my own conclusions about life. Yikes. Huge mistake. Why? God created me, saved me, unconditionally loves me and generously cares for me and I would ignore Him? "He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything, because He himself gives all men life and breath and everything else" (Acts 17:25). BOOM! So if I chew on this truth for a while -- that all things come from Him and He controls everything -- why wouldn't I be hungry to know more of this Magnificent Savior? Frankly when I'm really physically hungry I do not like to wait to eat. I don't normally put off eating when I'm famished. Nope. I want to be fed good food, real food, nutritional, life-giving ...

The Wisdom Lady

🎶  Worship Leader Grace Balint sings "Stronger"  🎶 I've met the wisdom lady.  I first met her many years ago in the book of Proverbs. God had just opened my heart to know Him so I was ready for the wisdom lady to open her heart to me! When I read her practical, rich words of life  I thought to myself. "Wow. Really? This is powerful. This is good stuff. This is so simple and wonderful...and these beautiful promises!"  Yep. Since then she's become a mentor to my soul. But not before God sent me through many painful storms and dark valleys over the years to show me it was not wise for me to try to control my little world. Hah! I admit it. Control issues cause pain. It means we're trusting in ourselves instead of trusting in God.Yikes. That's called idolatry!  But I hope I've become a teachable, willing student. I will say I'm wholeheartedly convinced that to be hungry for wisdom is how to receive her holy hospitality! The wisdom lady promises ...
