We are fully known and fully loved by God. What a wonderful humbling truth.

No burden, hurt or shame we carry is a secret, He knows everything, don't hold back give Him everything🙏

Our Heavenly Father, thank you for this wonderful comforting truth. Thank you for fully loving us while fully knowing us. Thank you for being our Anchor and our Light. Thank you Lord for being our All and All. Amen.

Spring is in full swing! Many of you are probably getting your gardens ready so you can harvest yummy fruits and vegetables and grow some wildflowers 💐 and truly make magic that starts with some tiny seeds.

I’m not much of a gardener, but I AM excited to plant some seeds this season: seeds of prayer! 👏

🙏 Prayer is one of the simplest ways to transform the world around us and I’m ready for some change! This month’s Bible Study titled Planting Seeds With Prayer starts Monday May 20th where we’re going to talk about things like:

😬 Why we need to pray for our enemies
🤨 The importance of praying for our political leaders
🤷‍♀️ What to pray when we don’t know someone well

And more!

If you’re ready to plant some seeds of prayer and grow in your relationship with the Lord, join our women’s Bible study group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/650433910018900

Good Morning and I hope everyone is going to have blessed Sunday🙏

I just wanted to share something I had seen in another Christian group. I don't know who the author of these questions are but they are sure helpful to help us dig deep when we spend time with God🙏

May these questions bring you so much blessing and may the author be blessed as well.

Have a wonderful Sunday🌷

Happy Friday!

One of the areas the enemy and our flesh likes to attack is about not being perfect.

Well, we know that we are not perfect, that is WHY we need Jesus! And to help us fight the good fight we will be starting our next Bible Study: Prevailing over perfectionism, on Monday April 15th. You can join us in our private group: Rooted Gracefully-Women's Bibles Study Group

Have a blessed weekend! 🌷

What a blessed day!

We celebrated the Resurrection of our Lord and Saviour with 3 very special church services.

Photo was taken after sunrise service as the sun was shining in church.

I hope everyone had a blessed Easter.

As Easter draws near and we start to think about Jesus and what He went through before being crucified and what He endured on the cross, it makes me love our Lord and our Father in Heaven even more.

There are many things that can cause fear and dread in our lives, being a child of God brings relief of those fears because we know He is always with us.

But there is one fear that we as the children of God will never have to endure, because through the grace of God and the love of Jesus, He endured it on the cross for each and everyone of us.

To be forsaken by God.

For a while God turned His face away from Jesus (the darkness that fell over the earth during the crucifixion)

When I start to think about this my body starts to shake, I can feel the sweat starting to form, my stomach starts to turn just at the thought of the horrific feeling it must be to be forsaken by God. However as a child of God that is a fear I will never have to endure and I cannot praise and thank God and Jesus our Lord and Savior enough for this amazing wonderful gift.

If you have not given your life to Jesus yet, please do so before it is too late. Nothing in this world that scares you will make you so afraid as to be forsaken by God. He gives life, He gives love, He gives grace and mercy, and by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior He gives eternal life!

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for the wonderful gift of grace that we receive through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Thank you for giving us the gift of everlasting life with You. Lord, I pray that anyone who reads this and has not yet received You as their personal Lord and Savior that they will give their hearts to you. Amen.

Surely many people have asked this question to themselves: Why am I here, what is my purpose?

I know I have asked this question too, and being a Christian I do know that my main purpose is to love and glorify God in everything that I do, and that is so amazing!

We also have different roles, we are daughters, sisters, some are wives, mothers and each of these roles is a purpose in themselves, again amazing.

We also know that God blessed each one of us with gifts, talents and opportunities and we really want to use it for His glory, the only problem, sometimes we don’t know how to do it. To find that specific purpose that uses our gifts and talents to bring glory to God.

The best way to find out is to search the Scriptures. Proverbs is Wisdom literature and that is where we will find ourselves in our next Bible study.

Join us in our study Proverbs for Your Purpose, so that we can learn how to live effective purposeful lives in every role the Lord has given us.

Study starts Jan 29th-Feb 3rd

It never ceases to amaze me how God answers our prayers. It is just so amazing that when we ask the Lord to open our hearts and minds to His Word, the wisdom and answers we receive starts this process in our heart, soul and mind which can only lead to worship and obedience.

Today was one of those days. For a while I have been praying for the Lord to use me for His purposes wherever He wants me to be in service for Him. There are two opportunities that the Lord showed me and I became a bit worried and fearful, because what if I can’t do it? Both are a bit out of my comfort zone.

This morning during my quiet time with the Lord, Philippians 4:13 was one of the verses that came up. Philippians 4:13 “ I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (KJV)

Now I know a lot of times this verse is used way out of context, so by understanding the context it really opens our eyes.

Paul went through some very difficult times, he was imprisoned, shipwrecked, hungry, beaten. (2 Corinthians 11:24-29) but he knew that He was able to endure all this because the Lord gave him the strength. He had a task, to share the Gospel and regardless of what Paul was going through, the Lord gave him the courage, strength, wisdom, everything he needed to continue in his task.

This same strength is in us too, through our Lord Jesus Christ. When God gives us a task to do, even if it is outside our comfort zone (which we should expect when we follow Jesus) He gives us the strength to accomplish it for His glory.

If you also have been praying for direction on how to serve God where He can use you, be prepared to go where He leads you, He will strengthen you.

Prayer:
Dear Lord, thank you for showing us in Your Word that You are our strength. You provide the strength, wisdom, courage, anything we need to serve you better everyday. Help strengthen our faith to know that You lead us where we need to go for Your purpose and Your glory.
Amen.
