Reposted from @wellwateredwomen It isn’t just in sharing a post about Jesus; it’s in sharing his love with my neighbor or the person at the cash register. ⁠ ⁠ It isn't encouraging someone I've never met in a DM; it's reminding my sons to look to Jesus when they're sad.⁠ ⁠ It isn't re-sharing someone else's biblical insight in my stories; it's preaching the gospel to my own heart. ⁠ ⁠ It isn't posting a gospel-centered Reel; it's coming alongside a suffering friend in real life. ⁠ ⁠ In our digital age, it’s easy to think that ministry only happens online, and while I do believe God is using the internet in great ways for his glory, we must always remember that true ministry happens face-to-face, with those around us and in front of us. ⁠ ⁠ These devices we use to capture moments, share content, and scroll daily can be used for good, but they can also be an agent of the enemy to distract us from what really matters, and that is loving God and his people. Let this space be the overflow of your walk with him, not a space that pulls you into the undertow of trying to impress others. ⁠ ⁠ This week, embrace the beauty of daily ministry that starts in your home, at your work, in your city, and in this world. Let’s be women who are the same online as we are offline and who serve those around us in Jesus’ name—hands free and hearts ready to stop and share the love of Christ at any given moment. –Gretchen (@gretchensaffles), Founder #wellwateredwomen #preachingtomyself #lampandlight https://www.instagram.com/p/CbJKGrWP8k9/?utm_medium=tumblr

Reposted from @amyhale Once upon a time, I used to joke that we shouldn't be allowed to sign up for a new Bible study until we began putting into practice what we learned from the one we just finished. But seriously FOMO can be a real hindrance, I believe, to our transformation to Christ-likeness. Maybe we should be just as anxious to put into practice what God already showed us in His Word as we are to join the sign ups for the next new Bible study release. #preachingtomyself too! https://www.instagram.com/p/CFvVIX2nUNi/?igshid=z8gl3rw71qmi

Who are you yolking yourself with? Who are you bonding yourself to? #thinkaboutit 🤔 Too many Christians’ spiritual growth and maturity are being stunted, simply because of the company they keep. Make sure your circle is filled with people that have your best interest at heart, that respect you, build you up, lovingly rebuke. Make sure you guys sharpen each other. If not, then what’s the point? https://www.instagram.com/p/BpuImAyHaMZ/?igshid=8382jsgncbw0

Neuschwanstein Castle. The reclusive King Ludwig II lived here less than six months, then died before he could finish it. 👑 The castle is very big and exquisitely beautiful. Walking through it (and through Herrenchiemsee Castle, another of Ludwig’s unfinished palaces) calls to mind the parable Jesus told of a farmer who kept building bigger and bigger barns, yet remained discontent. He was unable to rest. Unable to enjoy his vast wealth. Instead, his life was demanded of him in the midst of his pursuits. (see Luke 12:17-21) ⌛️ Lord, save us from such a fate. There are other, far more accessible ways for us to squander our time, money, and attention than on building castles. 🕞 Let’s remain mindful of the fact that our resources are limited and that one day, every one of us will stand before our Maker and give an account of how we used the blessings with which He’s entrusted us. 🎯 #preachingtomyself #flandersfamilybackpackseurope https://www.instagram.com/p/B77sYo4H3Zp/?igshid=7le8x7sxmdb1

I’ve spent the last two weeks researching and writing my final teaching on 1&2 Samuel for the Women’s Bible Study. For two weeks I’d had all the pieces for this teaching, but I couldn’t figure out how to put them together. Then late last night after crying out to God in utter frustration the first two pieces snapped together. Then another. And another. Energized and excited I was up LATE seeing the picture emerge. This morning, I was up early putting the final pieces together. And I’m thrilled with the final results. Let the LORD be PRAISED! 🥰 Sometimes that’s the way of life. We have all the pieces and we can’t figure out which way they go together. We try various things and combinations and nothing works. In all honesty, we just end up rearranging the mess and making a bigger one. Then in utter frustration we cry out to God. We surrender to Him and His plan. Eventually the pieces start to come together. . Be patient. Trust Him and the process. cry out BEFORE the frustration sets in. Remember, when we seek Him FIRST He will guide our steps. #vibrantrelevance #preachingtomyself #amwriting #1&2samuel https://www.instagram.com/p/B5nO6TVA4pC/?igshid=1cgdfqwq6jmbn
