Preparing to Study the Word

Pre- 1 & 2nd Peter Study


I hope this Sunday in March finds you well. I'm planted near a window, sitting in the most Hipster coffee shop I could find to try to draw my creative juices for this post. Unfortunately, the tiniest flakes of snow just started to swirl around the window... floating down from the grey sky onto the windowsill (and slipping through the crack in the window onto my keyboard. Let's all hope it stops soon.

My dear friend and I are starting an online Bible study tomorrow! We're digging into 1 & 2nd Peter. It's an 8-week study that comes with it's very own packet to get you to the finish line (hyperlinked above). All you need to participate in this one is good wifi.

Here's a verse to segue into tomorrow's study:

Psalm 1:2-3 says: Blessed is the man whose “delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.”

I will DELIGHT in the law of the Lord and MEDITATE on it day and night. By these things, I will yield the fruit that are attributes of a person more like God... in other words, how I will PROSPER.

Those are my goals for this study:

  • I will DELIGHT in His word, and seeking God's goodness!
  • I will MEDITATE and do so daily, finding balance in consistency with God.
  • I will PROSPER by taking the Truth from this study to heart and growing more like God.
What are your goals for this #LoveGodGreatly study? Write them in the comments below... I'll talk to you soon :)


Much love,

Vanessa
