    Brenda, that was for me? The prayers prayed is where I have been for a few years now. I pray about my loneliness and lack of friends-- like-minded friends. Im struggling to stay at my church bcz I am just as lonely there as anywhere else... Loneliness is no joke 😔

    Seek Christ for strength to practice spiritual disciplines, practice meditating and memorizing scripture, silence & solitude-pray, pray scripture, fast, praise & worship, always thank God, serve others, be a good steward-discipline/confession, discipleship, learn-listen in fellowship community. Love everyone.

    ooooo thank you so much for this topic and all of the view points you guys mastered on through your own experience of knowing Jesus. This is more than inspiring to me &it resonated with me when you guys spoke on the loneliness and need for likeminded people, i am still in a season of isolation but i know eventually God will reveal those who are supposed to come into my life to help hold me accountable and to bring out more and more of Jesus in each other. I love you guys & i pray i will seek friends like you guys with good hearts,pure intentions & encouraging:)))) ♡♡♡

    Yay! so happy for the new episode, watching from South Africa🥰. I have a question that I would love you ladies to discuss, I've put it in multiple forms but its basically the same thing; How can I seek the will of God for my life and and still follow my free will/ How can I follow my free will without resisting the will of God/ How does the will of God and free will coexist in one person? This conservations are really transforming my life, I love how the Holy Spirit takes over and you all just end up flowing, it is amazing. I love you all💓.

      @madisonmiller5403 Год назад +13

      Luke 17:33 Jesus says “Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.” Because of God’s love, we never lose our free will. If we did it would be control and not love. The beauty in relationship is free will allows you to do certain things for personal gain but when we submit to the will of God it brings glory to God, will it help you, and it helps someone else. I know it’s a lot of information at once but at the end of the day you can’t follow your free will because your free will would lead to death, but God honors that we have the choice to love and follow him and in return, we have the gift of life.

      @pfunzomakhavhu220 Dear, your will has to die every single day, you have to be very intentional about that. Your will is not all knowing and has high thoughts about you but Jesus does. Seek first the Kingdom of God and all these other things will be added onto you. God's will is far more greater, wiser, loving and caring. Besides, are you not exhausted trying to live this life on your own terms 😢.

    This is such a great and on time conversation. Fellowship within the four walls of the church is extremely important and scripture reminds us of this. However discipleship is equally important and scripture backs that as well. Gotta walk that thing out and reach others OUTSIDE OF THE WALLS of the church. Hearing this is a much needed echo of recent conversations that I’ve had with ministry friends. Seeing a group of women that have the hearts and minds of Christ is so inspirational for me. I’ll definitely be sharing this video and not only with family within my ministry but also my social media community. I love this. Thank you for sharing!

    I never ever hear ppl talk about continuous episodes of grief, more specifically trusting God through grief after losing a child. Never ever heard the church go into detail abt this.
    I don't think ppl really have the language or experience or etiquette, maybe but it's something I have experienced as a mom who's baby was killed. It's the hardest thing ever. All ppl refer to is Job but I'm not Job, just like Job is not David, is not Jeremiah.

    Definitely can relate to this as well and felt so seen when Brenda mentioned her last remarks. It’s been hard finding Christian friends, this has been a prayer of mine for some time now. And I resonate with Fatima’s comment about seeming “corny” if your a Christian. I often feel judged by people who know me bc I’m not where I used to be a few years ago, heck even a few months ago. It’s funny bc right before I watched this I prayed to God to reveal to me if I should go forward with a new friendship I just made bc I really do want to surround myself with like minded people. I guess I’ll have to wait and see what God says.

  • @GoodMaineRoss
    @GoodMaineRoss Год назад +1

    Interesting perspectives! They say that there’s nothing new under the sun and we all know from reading The Bible that The Word never changes no matter how often society changes. So why do we as Christians feel the need to try and change and fit into society? Because even though The Word don’t ever change, sometimes WE as people have to go through trials and errors to develop the courage and confidence needed to remain strong within The Word in an ever changing world! Just my opinion.🙏🏿🤷🏿‍♂️

    I feel like the problem In today’s society is people are always looking at people to l know how to live life when Jesus is the pure example of what we all should follow. Jesus is the example of how we all should live. No we will never be him or even come close. But when you understand that we are all human and we are literally all the same. Then we appreciate the acts that Jesus has done for us all. Jesus helped the lame, he helped the blind, he helped the sinful, he help the righteous. When you look to Jesus and pray for understanding you get the very thing you’re lacking because he will speak to you. He has placed his words on our hearts. Jeremiah 31:33 “ “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.”
