Deeper
OK, I am over my little fit from the last post. It helps so much to just get things out of your system.
I am in a strange mood today. Not happy, not sad, not mad, not glad. Just kind of here, kind of staying afloat. I don't like when men say "must be that time of the month", but truly there is nothing else I can think of that would put me in this gray mood.
I am really excited, but not right now because everything is blah at the moment, about starting up a house church. In the beginning, we are just going to eat together. We need to get to know each other and hang out. I am excited to see people that I haven't seen in awhile. Eating and praying together brings people closer. I am pumped to see how God will work with and in the group. I am desperate for deeper relationships. I am desperate for a deeper relationship with God. My effort has become null and void lately. I don't know when the last time I picked up my bible was. I don't even remember the last time I prayed. Most likely it was when I was really thinking about starting a house church...
I hope that people want a deeper relationship with each other and with God as much as I do. The biggest worry about this is people's desire to commit. One night a week doesn't seem like a big deal, but life gets in the way. People who come need to be able to commit one night, no matter what life sends their way. I am ready for this.
God please help us. Help us love each other. Help us spend more time focused on you.

Jen,
one of the best things that you can do is to pray hard for God to come and be glorified and then to let it go!
You invite He brings.
You pray , He answers.
You love, He reveals Himself.
You keep showing up,
He does as well.
You release, He embraces.
Let God do what He wants and it will be good, very good!

Thanks dad...
Stacey, It is a 'phase one' kind of quest thing. It isn't just the people that were in our bible study group before, even though some will be there.
