Session 1 - Email

Over and over again, our God never ceases to amaze me of His goodness! Thank you again for all your prayers and suport during this difficult time of losing my Dad. It's three weeks ago tonight and as I reflect on his life and our times together I can't help but be so incredibly grateful that he is rejoicing with my Lord tonight! What a hope, joy, and comfort that is to my mom and me!

Well, I am excited to get further into this study and see what the Lord is wanting to reveal about himself to us. Looking back over Week 1, I loved seeing how He was continually offering a bridge between His people and Himself to allow communication with Him. He's a God of relationship! He wants us to know him intimately. Not just a surface knowledge, but deeply know Him. Oh, I ask that we began each day of our study with that request of Him, that he fill us with the knowledge of Himself so that we may become more like him. To walk like Him, to talk like Him, to think like Him, to respond like Him.

In Week 2, we will be studying the concept of God seeking to set His people free from their dependence on themselves so that they depend instead on Him. I love how Beth put this, "That our own insufficiencies are invitations to experience the supernatural sufficiency of a universally powerful, personally responsible God!" Hold on tight I think it might be a wild ride in homework for week 2!

God bless you more than you can think or imagine sweet daughter's of His! I look forward to seeing you Oct. 26th for Session 2!

Jer. 31:25 "For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul."
