Chapters 7 & 8

Chapter 7 memory verse:

15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. (Ephesians 5:15-17)

Chapter 8 memory verse:

6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:6-7)

Prayers for the week:
  • Bless these ladies and this group
  • Bless our discussion -- that everyone feels comfortable sharing and we are an encouragement to one another on this journey
  • Help us become women of purpose and have a fixed focus on You
  • Help us cast our anxieties on you and be free from the bondage of worry
  • We know if we could see things as You do, we could free ourselves.  We know if we could truly believe and have faith and fix our lives on You, we would be content and at peace.  We know this in our minds.  Help us know this in our hearts and live our lives like this.
  • As the end of the Tobymac "Lose My Soul" song goes..."Lord, forgives us when we get consumed by the things of this world that fight for our love and our passion.  As our eyes are open wide and on You, grant us the privilege of Your world view, and may Your kingdom be what wakes us up and lays us down."
