CR in Oklahoma

What an awesome week this has been! There are now 19 Oklahoma CR's with 102 up and coming groups across our state alone!
We currently have 3 women's step study groups and 1 for men. A few ladies are already inquiring when we will begin a new open group. I am currently giving this consideration and will let you know as soon as a new group is set to begin. If you would like to join a group, just sign up at our information table or let me know.
These studies take approximately 12 months to complete. They are an awesome tool in your growth with Christ and recovery. If you are seriously seeking Christ in your life, and more of Him, this is a great tool for you.
Have a wonderful weekend.
God Bless,
Laura S.

Pre-Pray

Many people have told me how much a difference it makes in their day when they take time to pray first. Every one of us should make time for prayer. Here's a tip I was given a couple years ago by my brother, and it helps me tremendously. As soon as I wake up in the morning, I pre-pray my day. I simply thank God for the day and all the wonderful things He's going to do. I boldly tell Him that I am expecting Him to do great things during my day. Then I simply spend some time in praise for God. This is simply a pre-cursor for my day. After I've made the coffee and started my daily routine, I have prayer time with the Lord. Pre-praying your day is not done to "replace" your time of prayer. It's just a wonderful way to start your day off communing with God, and get your day started right. Remember, during you're prayer time.....you don't have to be speaking the whole time. Try spending some of that time praising God and being quite. It's during this time, you can hear God speak to you. We can't hear Him if we're the one talking all the time.
Just give pre-praying your day a try. It takes a bit of time to get used to and into the habit of doing, but it makes such a glorious difference!
Have a wonderfully blessed day.
