effective women

Women living the effect of Jesus in their lives, and letting that effect ripple through to their families, friends and all they come in contact with. We are all recovering from something. We live life filled with compassion for others, knowing our lives intertwine for some spiritual reason. Women reaching out to other women, bonding, sharing, as God would have us do. Leaving all those we come in contact with, even better than when we met, as Jesus would.

Expectations

I know that a book can be written about "expectations" and how they can move us forward, and how they can destroy us... But I won't go there right now.

We need to put our expectations in the Lord and not in things and people. I know that this is easier said than done. I have done this myself.  So, let's start here:
"Lord, I look to You for everything I need in my life.  Help me to put all of my expectations in You."

And whenever you are disappointed because your needs are not being met, talk to yourself and say, "My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him." (Psalm 62:5).  Then tell God about your needs and everthing that is in your heart. Don't worry, He won't be surprised or shocked. He already knows. He is just waiting to hear it from you.
