love story

"...I asked Jesus 'how much do you love me?' and He stretched out His arms and died."

oh snaps!

The Beth Moore Conference was AMAAAAAAAZING!

The Lord uncovered so much this weekend.

Friday night she talked about living out our lives in relevance- our life on this earth is so quick, like a vapor... we should be intentional with every moment we have. We only have one turn at life on earth... only one turn to fulfill God's purpose. I learned about progressive revelation... which means that God slowly reveals His will to us throughout our lifetime... Psalm 119:105 "Thy word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." She held out her hand in front of her as if to hold a lantern -to illustrate that we can only see so far in front of us.

Living a relevant Christian life is like walking on a tightrope- sometimes we have the tendency to fall to the left, into CARNALITY (when we allow the world to get into us) and sometimes we fall to the right, into HYPERSPIRITUALITY (self-piouty). We must always pray that God keeps us on the right track!

Some of my favorite Beth Moore quotes from Fri & Sat:

"To grow in Christ means to grow in love"

"If you don't follow hard after God, you will follow hard after something..."

"Do not stop until the enemy gets caught in the snares that he's set for you!"

"Sometimes God uses our pain to birth our passion"

    man, that was the best conference ever. It was so challenging and eye opening!!
    It's funny but I wrote almost all the same quotes down as you did :) I especially like the second one... (if you don't follow hard after God, you will follow hard after something...") oh I like all of them. :) God is so amazing.
