Ladies on a Journey

Practical Thinking vs. Faith Living



This morning the Journey ladies met and discussed Chapter One. Everyone present felt like this chapter was exactly what they needed. Here are a few things that were discussed:

-significance- Sometimes we find ourselves feeling like what we do in life is of no significance. But the author encourages us to realize that living in faith begins in the little things. We can not be so set on the big, glorious wishes in our life that we miss out on the faithfulness of the little things. We are to be faithful in everyday responsibilities and God will then entrust us in the larger.

-practical vs. faithful- Here is the thought? Do you find yourself being practical with your life? Does everthing have to be orderly and make sense? And in that, do you miss out on living in faith? Can we do both?

Let's here your thoughts.

Our first meeting January 18th



At our first time together we all received our books. There are few books left to purchase at Journey. Let me know if you need one. You can also buy this book at CBD and Amazon. The price is $10.

Since we just received our books, we discussed what 'Walking in Faith' meant to each of us. We would like to hear your thoughts on this too. Some thoughts that were brought up on Thursday:
- Walking in Faith doesn't always make sense which brings us to trusting God more.
- Walking in Faith requires us to give God the small things in our life along with the big.
- And the 'open hand' illustration. Where faith is described as a hand letting go not clingin on.


What about you? Let us know. We are so glad we live in an age where we can involve those of you that can't be there in person on Thursday. So glad you have joined us!

What Happens When Women Walk in Faith
