FOR THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!

I have been instructed by my husband to write down our tasks for the next 40 days gathering.

1. Our study is going to focus on the 1st letter of shape. S: our spiritual gifts. So study what the word says about spiritual gifts and reread the section on S in our purpose driven life book.
2. Evaluate yourself and then everyone else in our group on spiritual gifts.
3. Ask other people our strengths and weaknesses: 1) family member 2) friend 3) a casual acquaintance.
4. Pray whenever you are driving, sitting on the train, walking to work for 1) Our three flatmates and Eddie 2) Watoto 3) Each Other 4) Church building.
5. Zella is going to bring us a word in our next meeting. So we do a bible study together. She will also put it in our blog so we can refer to it during the week.
6. Fill out our health assessments that Myles printed out.

I can't wait till our next meeting! It's vital that we know who we are in Christ not only so we can serve the LORD best but also so we can come up with strategies against Satan who loves attacking our weaknesses. We can say to him...you're not telling me something I don't know...I know who I am and there is no condemnation because I know who I am IN CHRIST and my hope is in him!

Lets not be afraid to face who we really are - it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us. He loves these imperfect people that we are and each day he sets us free from something else that is holding us back. Don't worry the LORD is not like us - HE IS THE KING OF PATIENCE. He will never give up on us!

So if today has not turned out the way you were hoping. Don't worry the LORD will still be there tomorrow to cheer you up and remind you of who you are - his beloved child not his perfect child but his most loved child. He thinks that way about each of us.

I picture him sitting by our bed side waiting for us to wake up and he doesn't come alone but he brings boxes of presents that he can't wait for you to open. So don't walk around with your eyes closed stuck in yesterday but see yourself as the LORD sees you with a new day ahead on your Father's shoulders.

God loves us so much it blows my mind away! God bless whoever reads this and if you don't know the LORD than don't wait another moment. Write us a comment good or bad.

ENJOY THIS AWESOME DAY THAT THE LORD HAS GIVEN EACH OF US! For this is the day that the LORD has made and I WILL be glad and rejoice in it!!
