Get Back in the Game!

Ok, I don't know about you, but I am ready to stop being complacent and get back in the game!  I know that summer is a super busy time for everybody, but no more excuses.  I want us to finish the Linda Dillow book and post final comments by July. 

I also want to take Jenna's suggestion and have us all write and post our mission statements.  Don't take this task lightly.  Pray about it.  Talk to God and ask him to reveal this to you.  Listen to the Holy Spirit.  When you are ready, post your mission statement for all of us to see and ask God to help you follow it. 

I have been praying and have come up with a new project for us.  I will have it all worked out by July, but I sort of want to keep it a secret for now:)  I will need your full commitment with this!  I know that we are all strong in our faith, but I want us to be stronger.  I want us to grow closer to God through His word and through our relationship with each other.  I want us to be the disciples that God calls us to be.  I want the passion inside our hearts to radiate outwards and show other people what a relationship with Jesus can be like. "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." Matthew 7:21. 

I don't want us to be perfect Christians, a contradictory concept in itself, but i do want us to push ourselves beyond our comfort zones and see the great things God can work through us.  "Jesus replied, 'Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, "Go, throw yourself into the sea," and it will be done.  If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." Matthew 21:21-22

So, you have two things to accomplish
1. Finish the Linda Dillow book and post your final comments
2. Write and post your mission statement

I love you all very much and keep you all in my prayers.  Get ready for July and our new project!  Even though you don't know yet what we are doing, I will take any suggestions you have for the blog.

XOXO Libby
