"If you actively engage yourself in every message you hear or read, you will never hear or read an ineffective message". I just love Beth. She's been challenging me daily as I've picked up (again) this devotional book called "Beth Moore Jesus - 90 days with the one and only". I started it in July but without much vigor....I've now started it again with a whole new attitude and I'm thouroughly enjoying it! She's encouraging me to be bolder - I just have to quote her again: "Shake our assmeblies, Lord God, and fill us with Your Holy Spirit, that we might both speak and receive Your message with boldness"! (Acts 4:29-31)
It's so easy to be "bold" with our kids...things like when the rain is coming down hard, "see how mighty and powerful God is", or to just stop with them and pray in any and every instance...even the small stuff like when Malachi's pillow pal got a boo boo! I pray that I can take this bold approach in my adult conversations - to speak of God's greatness in my every day words and to be able to stop and pray at any given moment about any and every thing! (And to let my kids see me do this so they too will continue it as they grow up!)
