Week 8

Hi Ladies!

I hope you enjoy this week's lesson. I'm at a WIC conference this weekend and haven't been able to listen to it yet, but I'm looking forward to it...that's the beauty of M&M'ing online, because you can be flexible! Here's the short story:


Next week's verse:
PSALM 63:1-4 (ESV) WE THIRST HERE IN THIS DRY LAND
O God, you are my God; Earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.

Here is Barb's summary:

Hi Ladies!

This past week we memorized and meditated on Isaiah 43:1-3. We looked at Luke 21:12-19 and the amazing two sentences: "...and they will put some of you to death...But not a hair of your head will perish" and considered how they could both be true. We considered in Revelation 6:9-11 the absolute sovereignty of the Lord, even to having a certain number of believers ordained for martyrdom. Then I read two true stories: one about a family killed for their faith, the other one about a sister of ours who experienced a horrendous attack and how God took her through that and worked it for great good.

Hard stuff. But look through the awful blackness to see your Awesome God.

This week we are M&M-ing part 1 of Psalm 63. We'll follow next week with a second card on Psalm 63. I pray that we will examine our hearts: Do I thirst, groan, long for my God? Or am I full because I've been nibbling at the table of the world all day? Oh, my heart is such an idol factory! Let's ask Him to search us and show us and grow us in this.
