Zephaniah 3:17

My memory verse this week has been: "The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17

I haven't been doing my blog as well as I had hoped, but if atleast one person reads this then I am doing something right. I write all this to touch people and stir their hearts. I am doing a new devotional book. I want to start learning scripture more and actually learn it and knowing what it says and applying it. We need to be more confident on the inside than on the outside. When people look at us, they should see something different about us and realize that it is Jesus Christ.

My new memory verse is: "Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ." Galations 1:10

Our entire purpose is to be servants. The great commandment is to love others. And to be quite honest, I have done a horrible job at it. Sure we may be "quiet", "shy", "good" people. But that doesn't matter. God commanded us to do so! Just waking up and be a good person and going to church is great, but it really isn't good enough. No matter who we are, I personally think that everyone should be involved in a bible study group. If you are single/not married, go to a young adults one! I attend my Patchwork bible study and it is ages 18-29. You may feel awkward at first, but as long as you attempt to learn about Christ then that is a great start! And if you know one person in there or have a friend to go with you, then it makes it a lot more comfortable. If you are married then I think it is an awesome thing to go to a bible study together!

I want to serve. I want to get better involved and I am looking at different options and ways I can do so. Ways to serve is everywhere, and some are so simple we don't even realize it!
