Every Wednesday morning, I attend a Community Bible Study (CBS International) where we read a book of the bible, line by line. Right now, we're doing the last book called Revelation, which contains descriptions of heaven, and fulfilled prophecies for the end times. In all honesty, it's a very scary, and challenging read. It is clear from the beginning that He is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. It has given me assurance in my faith, and has excited me to continue my purpose here. Life-changing stuff.
Finally, my moms group is reading weekly "Finding Joy in All You Are" which discusses your unique role as a wife, mother, friend, and so many other hats we wear. It has reminded me about joyful submission to my husband, the value of inner beauty versus our fading outer beauty, and striving to have a more gentle and quiet spirit which is beautiful in God's eyes. Note, that doesn't mean you need to actually BE quiet. You can be quite boisterous, and still have a gentle and quiet spirit. Thank God! :)
A lot of people ask me how I have the time, while others wonder if I'm doing too much. My response is that I need to make the time or I won't be a good mother or wife, and if I'm not intentionally getting in the Word everyday, you don't understand, I am in the pit. I need it like the very air I breathe!
