Hey guys!! I'll be honest. My praise report doesn't come with the warm fuzzy feelings right off the start, so bear with me.
I was invited to go to a college group bible study, thing, tonight by a friend from work. So I decided to go and see if I liked it, and what happened.
Well, I went and I liked it at first. But the music was just really loud and I didn't know any of the songs. I decided to just stick it out, especially when I saw a friend there that I hadn't seen in, like, forever.
There was a short message after the music before we split off into groups to do some discussions about some questions we all received. which was followed by more songs.
I just want to thank God for letting me go through the hardships that I did when I was still in college. He showed me so much during that time. For example, I used to attend an on campus bible study group there. And I was believing every word of it. But over time I was starting to notice how empty I was feeling inside because I wasn't getting any spiritual meat through the studies. I have always wondered how the girls of that group always seemed to have so much life and light in there lives, but it was revealed to me tonight that there isn't any REAL meat in their lives. I was seeing how having over 5 people that they talk to on a very regular basis was like how some people eat just fruit all day. They need a LOT to stay energized during the day. But I digress.
Basically God showed me that I don't need to have over 10 engagements of study groups per month to keep me spiritually fed. It was revealed to me that I don't need to find another place to meet people and that where I'm at with my women's bible study group is fine. That I should get to know the people that I am with a lot more.
So, that's my praise report.
God bless!!
