Last week's verse was....Romans 8:28
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
**I had great expectations by my husband for defining this verse, but since we are behind just let it soak in, we might re-visit it another week!
This week's verse has been....
Philippians 1:9-11
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.
**This verse goes in conjunction with the Bible study I am doing right now Joy in the Journey by: Jean Stockdale
We learned more about Paul and what this verse means today at the Bible study. Jean has blogged about it here and defines this portion of Philippians much better than I can. By the way you can get your copy of the Bible study on Jean's website here or can you believe it???... You can even buy it at Target!
**Let me tell you....after getting a ticket, a bad haircut, and having a confrontation with a neighbor about our leash less dogs all in one week; God knew exactly when to put this little Bible study about JOY in my lap. He knew I needed some. Now I'm singing this.
THank you for much for ALL the encouragement that you lavish on me. At the end of an extremely stressful few weeks, this was "like a cool drink of water in a dry and thristy land" to click on your site and read your kind words. They are life giving to me today. Thank you very much! Blessings. jean
