Waiting on the Lord

We all from time to time fight our battles
with Satan. As for me I become exhausted and
down-trodden and beg God to rescue me.
My focus is on the battle not the Lord and this allows
Satan to have just that much more control over me....

Recently in our Beth Moore "Esther" study she
showed us that we lose our strength when we wait
on the "event" . When our focus should be on "waiting"
for the Lord. His word tells us that our strength will be
renewed when we wait on HIM.
It is so hard when your in the midst of battle, to keep your
focus and stand firm waiting...we must pray for
discernment and discipline..

What helps you through your battles and how
do you stay strong while "waiting on the Lord"....

Conquering Fear

A group of ladies at my church have been
participating in Beth Moore's study on Esther.
It has had such a profound impact on my life,
God and Beth together...well, it just doesn't get any better..
If any of you have the opportunity to do the study please do.

Last night we talked about fear..

We all deal with it everyday and let it sometimes keep us
from being all that we can be...not only in our Christian life
but everyday life too..
What fears keep you from the freedom God wants us all to
experience ? What are some ways that you deal with your
fears?

What would you ask?

Imagine a beautiful spring morning and you notice
Jesus speaking to a group of people in the portico of the Temple...
If you had an opportunity to have a few words with Him
what would your conversation be about.

As for me I have a million questions,
( I can almost hear Him saying "NEXT" , can someone move
this lady along so I can speak with a few others)..surley not

One question I think everyone has pondered is what did He write in the sand in John chapter 8.
Given the opportunity....

What do you think you would ask?
