2017 ~ A NEW YEAR OF GRACE

We are trusting God for the new year that lies ahead of us, a “blank slate,” as it were for the unknown year, known fully to Him.
Kierkegaard (among others) said: “what we call the Journey, God calls the goal…to be more like Him, to release more to Him, to see Him more clearly in every life event.”

2016 was a year of change and growth for Women of the WORD, and we are so grateful for our new home at Good Shepherd, a to be studying the PSALMS this spring term~  the “prayer book of the Bible…”
It will be a rich time together on Monday evenings. Our texts are from Bonhoeffer and Spurgeon’s treasury about King David (3 vols!)

My prayer for the group in the year ahead is that we become more disciplined in our Prayer Life and more like HIM in our communion with the Father.

The promises to the One who meditates on the Law, day and night~ are many: “they shall be like a tree planted by streams of living water…and in whatever they do, they prosper.” Psalm 1
