What a wonderful morning!!!

Today was the first meeting of our ladies stewardship group. I am truly in awe and blessed by the group of women that God has assembled together. Each one is amazing in their love for Him, their gifts and talents. Today we talked about what stewardship is and how it touches every area of our lives. We studied what God instructions for us as women in Titus 2:3-5, "Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind and to be subject to their husbands so that no one will malign the word of God."(NIV). We also read about His love and provision for every area of our lives in Exodus 16:4, 12, 18. 

We discussed areas of our lives where we struggle with our stewardship and areas where we have grown and matured over the past years. We have all learned valuable lessons from our past experiences. God instructs us that we should share our experiences and growth with one another and seek advice and counsel for those who have already traversed the path before us. We are so excited that He has brought us together to support each other on the road to successful stewardship.

Next week we will begin our topical discussions. If you were not able to join us today, we would love to have you next Thursday morning at 10:00 am. I will be praying for each of you individually and our group collectively. Next week I will remember to ask for specific prayer requests :0) Check back soon for more information on next week's topic!

  2. Hey, could you list ahead what the topic will be for next week and then those who are following your blog can comment what they do or share what they feel led to share. You can then share it at meeting on Thursday with those who attend. Then post some of the great things and ideas that were shared on that day for those of us who would like to follow online. Kind of like an online course?
