The ABCs of God's Love Letter: Upright

The ABCs of God's Love Letter: Upright

Welcome to
​The ABCs of God's Love Letter
25 Weeks. 25 Writers!

We will use the alphabet as an acrostic and study topics like: Abide, Beloved, Calling, Delight, Endure, Faithful, Garment, Hunger, Increase, Justice, Kindness, Light, Manna, Name, Ordain, Path, Quench, Ransom, Salt, Testify, Upright, Vanity, Wait, Yield, and Zeal.

Every week, we’ll discover a different topic. Each topic is accompanied by five Scripture verses—one for each weekday. The Bible study has a page for each verse. Those spaces will invite you to write the verses out and journal what you’ve learned.

Every time I read God’s Word I learn something new. I also find that Scripture writing really helps me meditate, and as I meditate, God always shows me just what I need for that day—it’s AMAZING!​
I pray you’ll join us and learn new and exciting things too from His Word.

Our Words Matter: What Are Careless Words?

12/25/2020

Our Words Matter: What Are Careless Words?
Welcome to "Our Words Matter" a 5-part mini-series about using our words wisely and avoiding careless words.

​Last month we looked at
The Sin of Careless Words. Today, we're looking at What Are Careless Words? Over the next few months (the last Friday of each month) we will also look at:
  • Where Do Careless Words Come From?
  • What Do Careless Words Do?
  • How Do I Avoid Careless Words?
​
​I hope you'll join us for "Our Words Matter" because they do! 

Careless words are those that are spoken rashly. They lack wise consideration and are often impulsive, thoughtless, and insensitive. In short, careless words are those that happen when we just don’t think.

Anxious for Nothing: Replacing Worry with Joy

12/18/2020

Anxious for Nothing: Replacing Worry with Joy
Let's be "Anxious for Nothing: Replacing Worry with Joy." Well, that’s easy to say.

​I know from personal experience that it is rarely helpful for someone to tell me "Don’t worry, be happy." When I allow anxiety into my heart, it becomes a crippling force that controls my moods, my words, and my actions. I don’t want to be told to "Let go and let God" when that happens. I want to curl up in a ball and binge-watch television shows until I can no longer escape reality. Then I want to cry and complain and feel sorry for myself.

​This past week, I have been living under the control of anxiety. Changes at work, a brief sickness, and some disappointments created inside me a feeling of emptiness, fear, and unease. I allowed my mind to dwell on things unlovely and untrue.

4 Prophetic Names of Jesus

4 Prophetic Names of My Redeemer
This is a special time of year as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. I took a Scripture writing challenge this month with some friends using different passages about the coming of Christ at His birth. I find the prophecies of the Old Testament about Christ’s birth so fascinating. Isaiah and Micah, along with other prophets, prophesied exact details about Christ’s first coming which Jesus fulfilled to the letter.

These prophecies prove the inspired Word of God in ways that no man could have planned on his own. It always excites me to think that if God planned and fulfilled those prophecies so precisely, how much more precise His Second Coming will be!

In this Scripture writing challenge, I have been looking at some of the prophecies the Holy Spirit led Isaiah to share with us.
