You are more than welcome to post your goals in the comment or just make sure you jot them down in your study journal so we can revisit these goals midway through our study.

My goals for this study are:
ReplyDelete1. Get to know the names of God and what they mean in my life.
2. Learn not to just pray but to also listen to God.
3. Build a stronger relationship with God.
A little about myself...Hmmmm I think you all know inside and out..lol, but just incase you didn't...I love my family, friends and just people in general. God gave me a loving heart and at times I wonder why, but I have learned that the heart he created in me is a gift from him and I take it as a blessing. Some friends and family as I was growing up said I had a sign on my head that said "SUCKER" I always wondered why am I not wired like them, why do i let people step all over me and still love them. I couldn't be mad a any one for too long and I always thought I was wrong for that, but now that I know who created me and what he created me for, I know that my forgiving heart is gold. Call me sucker, or whatever it is, I know that Just as Jesus forgave me and gave himself for me on the cross, a part of Him lives within me and I will forever love and forgive others as God did. I came closer to God when my mother died, I lost the ROCK in my life and I felt lost, but God lead me to Him, the solid foundation as to where I began this new journey finding my way and building this wonderful relationship with my creator. I found the ultimate love in Him, there is no other love as great as His and I am the happiest I have ever been.
My favorite color is green and love to snack on sweets (my weakness). I am working on changing that to healthier snacks like carrots and apples :) The only good book I am reading right now is the Bible, the best book I ever picked up to read. If I could escape for a day, I would go somewhere relaxing, where I could kick my feet up and reflect on what God has done in my life.
I look forwarding to reading your intros....love you ladies tons
Hello loves its Cher :) here's a little about me as I see me! I'm a very loving person with a huge heart, I always give even to thows I do not know. I'm always trying to find a way on how to make this world a better place. Growing up I had many struggles. I struggled with child abuse that lead me to live a life of destruction. I left home at 13 and never went back. I lived the streets, I lived with family, friends, parks, rooftops I lived wherever I could just to run far away from what I experienced growing up. At the young age of 15 I became pregnant with my first son 3 1/2 years later at 19 my second child came along. Raising my children alone was a challenge one I was far ready for. Millions of mistakes were made because I lived a destructive life. I was a good mother but not good enough . I failed so many times but my children always loved me. I gave them all that I could with Little to no support. I got by with love from my true friends and family. A year before I met my husband I was happy to have finally beat the disease I had all my life... Depression! God healed me because only he knew all of me. He knew I was a great woman of God lost in the world of hurt, addiction and evil. God gave me a second chance of life and he sent me two more angles to mother and love and an amazing man that would truly love me for me and never strick me, hurt me or verbally abuse me. Today I live a wonderful life that still has its challenges but the Lord gave me hope to fight for the beautiful outcome life has when we allow him to be with us. I've always had faith and believed in him but I never gave it all to him. Once I did that he showed me the way. Without him I would still be lost. Thank you lord for never giving up on me! I am a daughter of God!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite color is Blue :) I love to snack on humus and pretzel crackers :)-
I am not reading any books at the moment but will be now :)
If I could escape for one day I would go to bed and sleep for 48 hours straight. (Keeping it real)
Love y'all and please be patient with my late replies my time is very short with toddler and infant. I just prayed and asked the lord to keep baby sleeping so I could get this far :)
Thank you babe for participating and sharing. You Rock!
