A few days ago I was asked if I would deliver the Message for our church services coming up on Dec. 29th. I agreed, even though I have never done this before. In our church, the Message is typically a one-hour presentation or discussion. Talking in front of a group doesn't bother me, but talking about a subject for which I feel less than qualified... that's kind of scary!

So, I prayed to the Lord, asking Him for inspiration in developing the Message for that service. I immediately received the thought that I should choose the Holy Spirit for my Message topic. Okay... great! But, now, where do I go? Obviously, more prayers were needed.

About an hour ago I was scrolling through some of the forums here. I hate to admit it but I've not visited nor participated in any of the forums until today. I've only ever chatted and listened to the Bible recordings on this website. Praise the Lord! He led me to the Spirit of Truth 7-Day Program! Wow! That is exactly the inspiration and information I've been praying for!

I just finished Day #1. Oh boy, I so badly want to skip ahead and start on Day #2! Unfortunately, the program says we should resist the temptation to skip ahead. So, I'll be a good student and listen to the teacher. I'll do Day #2 tomorrow morning.

I'm very much looking forward to it!

I've now finished Day #4. Boy, have I learned a lot! I do these studies in the evening, after work, and I look forward to each one. I so badly want to jump right into Day #5! But... I practice some patience here.

We all need to practice some of that Bro.

I finished Day #7 this morning. What an awesome lesson that was! I learned a great deal and I can't wait to share what I've learned with others. Thank you for putting together such an important lesson. I believe it truly does have the ability to change lives!

It does change lives. It changed mine. Or perhaps I should say the Holy Spirit changed mine through this study and others here.

I'm glad you're doing the study.

You've been such a blessing to me and others. I've had many pictures painted with in my mind about you and Hawkins and your adventures.

God bless you brother *glomp2*

Thank you, Pine. I've met many wonderful people in here. I'm thankful the Lord led me to this place.

God bless you, too, Sis!
