Good Morning Girls

Week 5
1John 2:18-29
When I read vs 18 today 'Little children, it is the last hour, and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know it is the last hour.' I thought how John felt things were bad enough that the 2nd coming would be anytime. I wonder what he would think today?
Anyway, that's off topic.

1. One important lesson I want to remember from this week's reading would be: Rely on the Holy Spirit to give discernment when being taught the Word.

2. I feel God wants me to learn: to seek discernment from Him, not people.

3. I am giong to put faith into action by: becoming more diligent in praying for God's discernment when studying & being taught.

Good Morning Girls

07OCT2011
This week's Scripture was 1John 2:1-11. Good stuff!
1. One important lesson I want to remember from this week's reading would be: Actions speak louder than words.  I can say I am a follower of God all I want but if my actions do not back it up, I'm fooling no one but myself.

2. I feel God wants me to learn:
My life needs to back up what I profess, that Christ is my Lord & Saviour.
Without love there is no light. If I am truly walking the walk, I must show love, whether I deem it is warranted or not. It is my responsibility to love people, this does not mean I condone their actions.
I must learn to love unconditionally.

3. I am going to put my faith into action by: Seeking the ability to love unconditionally; seeking out opportunities to show love not only to the 'loveable' but also the 'unloveable'.
