Hello ladies,
It has taken me some time to add my welcoming thoughts because I there are so many things I wanted to say. I am just completely dumbfounded that God has chosen me to lead this study on prayer.
I echo many of the words already spoken about fall. It is my favorite season. The beauty God gives us during this time makes me feel cozy. I long for those moments when I can take my latest bible study, a cup of flavored coffee and sit on my porch to spend time with God in the crisp, morning air. (I haven’t had enough of that lately.) Fall is a time to do new things: get out the sweaters and jeans, put up a few seasonal decorations, light warm scented candles, begin cooking more “comfort foods”, and to set new goals.
As a teacher, fall is not only my favorite season, but is an important time in my life as well. I feel the call God has placed on my life to be a teacher is just as strong as the call He has given me to be a mom. I do not take either of those responsibilities lightly, so each year I look for new, innovative, effective ways to not only teach my students the necessary content, but to make new relationships with each and every student God has chosen for my classroom. It is always a time of new beginnings for me that is not only exciting and rewarding, but challenging.
This fall God put an additional call on my life to lead my first women’s bible study. He is certainly stretching me girls!!!!! Teaching middle school students is one thing, but hoping to impart wisdom from our Lord to women, many of whom I look to for spiritual guidance and help, is another thing entirely. In no way do I have marriage by the tail, and I should know God’s word much better than I do; but I do know God does not call the qualified, but he qualifies those He calls (Praise Him!!!). I am going to hold our Lord to that promise as we spend these next several weeks together. I am so excited to see what God is going to do in our midst.
So, take a moment to breathe in the crisp, fall air God has given us, watch for the beauty of his majesty in the leaves, and dive into this study expecting God to do a new thing in your midst.
Philippians1:3-6 “I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it out to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Amen!!!!!
In Him,
Tammy
