This is so exciting!

Today at church our pastor began a 12 week series called TXT MSG. It will be a study of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation featuring particular messages, from each book, that God has for us. Being new to Bible study, I am really excited about this. Our pastor is so good at laying things out in a way that brings clarity and encourages application.

Abigail and I are doing a Bible study together and the other night we learned that God uses the Bible to speak to us. Through this amazing book, He encourages, comforts, instructs and makes promises to us. I can't wait to hear all that He has to say to me.

So this is my goal: I want to study the verses that our pastor speaks about and then post about any aha moments or things that God reveals to me personally. In order for this to work, I will have to push aside my perfectionist nature because time will not allow me to spend hours on each post. So bear with me if my upcoming posts seem even more random, unorganized or chaotic than normal. Still, I welcome any and all input. Let me know what you are thinking or what God is revealing to you when you read His word.

Finally, I want to leave you with this: During the month of April, in our Sunday school class, we have been teaching our preschoolers that Jesus loves them and wants to be their best friend forever. Today we learned that Jesus wants us to share this with everyone we know. So...

Jesus loves you and He wants to be your best friend forever!

Isn't that awesome?!?!?
