2011 Siesta Scripture Memory Team: Verse 7!

Hey, Sweet Things! I’m a mighty long way from home in Fresno, California and looking so forward to getting into the Scriptures and into some passionate praise and worship with these West-side women. I love knowing that Priscilla is in Florida this weekend serving at her first simulcast and we are on the opposite side of the continent with our Living Proof Live. You wouldn’t waste a prayer on either one of us.

This will be a record setting post – my shortest ever! Wish so much I could tarry here and visit with you but, Sister Girl, my hands are FULL. Oh, how I pray you are sticking with your Scripture memory. Don’t give up! God will bring a harvest if we persevere and see it all the way through. I love my selection this go round. If you don’t know what you want to memorize for Verse 7, you are welcome to share mine. Here goes!

Beth, Houston. Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:58 NIV

I love you like crazy. Stay in the Word!

    Hello Beth,
    I was privilaged to be present in the Fresno/Clovis converence this weekend. It was awesome the way the Lord moved in the lives of us all. You came up in our section 111 rows D and E and you seemed to be thinking of asking me to speak about the experience I had had the night before when I was saved by the bell and the young woman with the puffed hair raised her hand.
    Had you choosen me (I have red hair) I would have told you that God moved on my heart to to allow Him to renew the love He has given me to work with a special population of men and women. I realized that I had stopped seeing them through the eyes of the Lord and loving them as He does, but was instead seeing them with human eyes and was dismayed and exhausted.
    I go back to work tomorrow refreshed and excited. Thank you for allowing the Holy Spirit to minister. It will be exciting to work once again with those to whom God has called me to minister in my own way.

    Now, my friend asked me what it was that you had us say to one another at the end of the second service. I thought it was the eight things, but she is convinced it was much more. Is it possible to get a copy of those words? And I would love to have a copy of the poem you read to share with those I work with that need to know they are not alone. God bless you, your team and May His face shine upon you all.
