Our tongues are powerful tools. Our words have the power of life and death. In Session 5 of our #inspiregatherings we focus on this concept, too Love this question from the sermon this week: What would your world look like if you used your tongue only to praise the Lord? #sermonnotes
At our #inspiregathering last night I forgot the notecards for prayer requests. To improvise, I handed out extra copies of our Healing Prayer handout (available for free download under website resources). Unfolding each paper and reading through the requests today, only to see the beauty of their location on it. So much healing to come, as the Lord restores as only He can. Words are always so hard to come by after each of our #InspireGatherings but despite circumstances not going as planned, I was humbled by how the Lord spoke to each of the ladies and their openness to share.
Ruth's declaration is worth more than gold so is yours. (I had tried to post this for a two days but encountered some technical difficulties, only to find the same illustration in our current small group study. Love how the Lord strings things together.) As I pieced these pages together, gold seemed fitting, since gold is shiny, beautiful and so highly sought after. In order to get to this status, it has to go through the fire - the process of purification to extract the impurities and other metals - just like we do, as we follow Jesus. May the Lord strengthen and renew us in the process. // Join in the RENEW creative devotional by grabbing a kit from the shop: https://www.theinspireshop.com/creativekits/renew-creative-devotional-kit-march-2019 (Pages created with our RENEWED creative devotional kit and basics line available in the shop.)
