Teaching Re-Cap

We have a new women's step-study group beginning on Jan. 24th. We will meet every Wed. evening at 7:00 p.m. at the church. We have a sign-up sheet at the information desk every Tuesday night.

Quick Re-cap:
Last Tuesday we talked about God's Grace and God calling us to forgiveness. The fact is, the majority of us spend a lot of time dwelling on bad things that have happened to us. We keep them so fresh in our mind, it's as if it just happened.
REMEMBER: God's love and grace are so powerful they can heal anything in your life! Any bondage, addiction, or hang-up you may have. We must embrace that Grace that has been given to us so freely. Dwelling on the past is holding you captive. The Grace of God enables us to let it go. Not one of us deserved the grace we received from God. Jesus didn't HAVE to die on the cross for you. Now we have to learn to display that same grace within our own lives. No matter who has wronged you or how they have done it; you have the ability through the grace God extended to you, to forgive others....even if they don't deserve it. Forgiveness is a part of the renewing of our mind. We must forgive so we can focus of the Goodness of our God.
See you Tuesday!
God Bless,
Laura S.
