WELCOME BACK FRIENDS!
Maybe you can relate...? There is a weird feeling when we return back to school after our summer break. Getting re-adjusted to juggling classes, church, life, etc. can feel a bit overwhelming. But that is when we should stop and PRAY! So that is what I am going to do first…
Father, we come to you right now and ask that you expand our cups. That we will be able to manage school, work, life, and anything that you have for us. Please prune us, take away the things that are not needed. Help us to seek you first and trust and obey. We love you and thank you for this opportunity to learn more about you. Help us to continue to have gratitude even on the days that feel heavy and hard. Amen and Amen!
During this course, I hope to gain more consistency in my spiritual disciplines. Praise the Lord, I have become consistent in my prayer and Bible study but I would like to incorporate more worship and quiet times with Him in my daily life. I will commit to God, myself, mentors, classmates, professors, etc. to adding worship and quiet time to my daily practiced spiritual disciplines. I also want to commit to having an open heart and mind to learn new things. May the Lord grant me humility and understanding. Now Friend, I challenge you to commit to something too…
2 Chronicles 7:14
"If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land".
