Life's Struggles

Posted in At the feet of Jesus

Sometimes life can be so difficult.  From major problems to very minor problems, they can cause difficulties that I would rather avoid.

But, without struggles, there would be little growth.  I am reminded of the pearl in the oyster story.  Without the irritation of the sand, we would never get the pearl.    Life's problems cause us to lean on God much more than we ever would without the struggle.    I am praying that God's strength and direction would be the source of my joy today.

Great sermon on how to study the Bible

Posted in At the feet of Jesus

I found the link to this sermon on young girl's blog.  She is a recent homeschool graduate.  I have been impressed with the wisdom and love for the Lord on some of the blogs of the young girls that I have seen here.

The pastor has recorded 11 sermons about studying the Bible.  I have downloaded and listened to Part 1.  It was very good, in my opinion.  Finding this was an answer to prayer.   I have been reading the Bible, but I felt like it was not sinking in like I wanted, and needed, it to.  Now I have some ideas how to apply it to my life.
