Karlyn LLJ week 3 day 2

Good Evening Girls!

S - Luke 11:17  He knew their thoughts and said, "Any kingdom divided by civil war is doomed.  A family splintered by feuding will fall apart.

11:28 Jesus said, "but even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice."

O-  PUT IT INTO PRACTICE  I need to write this everywhere.  I'm not putting into practice what I read from God's Word.  Actually I feel so overwhelmed when I read scripture.  I'm realizing that I'm trying to do this on my own and not be spirit led.  Putting it into practice works so much better when I'm spirit led!

A - I will stop trying to do this on my own!  I will stop being the person who brings on the division and civil war in my home!  I will put God's Word into practice!!!!

What's my families purpose?  I want our purpose to be that in everything we say, do, think, and feel we are growing closer to God and ministering his love to each other and those outside our walls.

What's the picture of our future?  It's hard for me to look to far ahead most days I'm just trying to get by.  I want our future to be time loving on others and not being selfish.  I want our future to hold memory making moments where our kids move into adulthood knowing and loving Christ in every part of themselves.  I want our future to be untainted by this world.

What values guide our journey?  Biblical truth- not making God's word politically correct or "current"  but truly standing for and living out his words in love.

What goals do we focus on (tomorrow)? - My goal is to live what I teach from God's word and then to continue memorizing scripture as a family.

What will it look like to accomplish our purpose?  It will definitely look like Satan is attacking because if we truly put God's Word into practice he's gonna come after us.  It will also look unselfish.  (can u tell I struggle with selfishness!!)

P - God please continue to give me opportunities to love on the girls at work.  Help me to put into practice what you are teaching me and please help me to follow the spirit and not try to do this life in my power.

Praying many prayers for you AMBER and JEREMY tonight!!!
