Moses and the Exodus (cont.)
As I was reading I was pleasantly surpised to see that when the Israelites were afraid they called out to God. However even though they call on Him, they don't trust Him and forget His power. I think that's how a lot of us are; I know I am. When I call out to God, I doubt His power. But as the israelites were repeatedly shown His power is great and He can do all things. Vs. 14 is amazing too: "The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still". By our own power nothing of consequence can come about, but if we step back enough to let God take control wonderous things will occur.
Since starting college, I have been able to learn a lot about my faith and relationship with the Lord. God has since lain it on my heart to share this with others. As the title states, these stories and thoughts led to personal growth for myself and I'm hoping they do the same for you. I look forward to discussing what God is doing in our lives, and working together to grow in the Lord!

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!
