New?

1st time reading? Welcome! Below you will find a brief description of each part of the blog you can find here.

Stories of Growth: These are testimonies, or stories from different people that have been shared with me that I found encouraging. I would love to post your testimony or any story you think would be a good addition, just message me!

My Thoughts: This is just a place for me to share what I'm thinking and wondering as I read scripture. I want this to be like a discussion, so please comment! Also I would love to open a section titled Your Thoughts, so if you would like to submit to me your thoughts on stuff you've read, I would love to post it!

Sisters' Saturday: I'm a girl, so naturally I'm going to hear things from other Christian women that are really only applicable to other girls. These will be posted every Saturday, just like the title suggests. So guys you could read this, but it's really meant for the ladies. Sorry!

Teachings and Preachings: I feel like the title is pretty self explanatory on this one, but these are things I've heard taught or preached about. Again I would love this to be a discussion, so please comment!

The blog is a work in progress, and I hope to have a lot of stuff up eventually, it's just going to take some time. Feel free to give your feedback!

Update (8/12)- As you can problably guess I haven't updated the site in awhile. Well I'm back and ready to keep going! I got pretty busy and was just at camp for two weeks, but I should have things coming up again starting tomorrow!

My Thoughts- The Life and Teachings of Paul (Ephesians 3)- 1/18/12

My Thoughts- Ephesians 3

I found it beautiful how Paul has embraced his mission from God. So many times I think we over complicate things. We think "God told me to do this, but...". Paul has an attitude that God told him to do something and that's what he's going to do. And you can tell through his language that he's happy to be doing what he's doing, not dragging his feet or complaining.

My bible also notes that Paul doesn't dwell on any major problems in his letter which shows the church at Ephesus was well grounded. His main purpose was to demonstrate God's love and grace to them.
