10/25/11 Prayer Requests
Great time last night with you girls!
I LOVED this scripture from last night!
"We are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago" - Ephesians 2:10
I pray that we're all aware that God has a PURPOSE for where we are right now in our life, and that we are doing the things he planned for us to do before the beginning of the world! HOW COOL! Here's a good sermon that talks about this purpose!

Here are this week's prayer requests:
- Please pray for my mom - Melody Bing -- she is going through alot of anxiety & depression problems right now. Pray for her thyroid medicine and new antidepressants to start working soon. She is scared & has no hope. Pray for God to give her hope & to be with her during this hard time.
- Pray for Courtney, Kayla and Raegan's career searches. Give them hope & guidance during their searches for the right job for this time in their life.
- PRAISE for Felicia's promotion to Senior Manager! :)
- Continue to pray for Kayla's dad and his frustrations with his coaching job
- Pray for Courtney's boyfriend Lars. He broke his foot and had surgery a few days ago. Pray for quick healing!
- Pray for Jiffy's friend who's mom died this week from a heart attach. Her dad died last year so pray for their family - that they turn to God for support and healing.
- PRAISE for JIffy's nephews Max & Will - they are learning how to pray. Pray for them to continue to grow up to be children of God. Thank you God for your blessings. Continue to give the Derrick family for spiritual and financial blessings to raise these boys to be all they can be for you!
- Continue to pray for Tim & Javier - that they come to know God's love for them!
- Kayla's prayer for all of us as we continue to learn & grow from this bible study: God, give us hope and courage for getting over our false positives. Help us to realize those false positives and replace them with the TRUTH of your Word!
- Everyone pray for a Texas Rangers WIN tonight! World Series! Woo hoo!
Love you guys!!
PS Here's the lyrics to the song Raegan sang for us last night :)
He's Still Working on Me
He's still working on me
To make me what I ought to be
It took Him just a week to make the moon and stars
The sun and the earth and Jupiter and Mars
How loving and patient He must be
He's still working on me
There really ought to be
A sign upon my heart
Don't judge me yet, there's an unfinished part
But I'll be perfect just according to His plan
Fashioned by the Master's loving hand

Welcome!
Hey Bible Study Gals!
Teri had a great idea last night that we could start a blog to share scripture, prayer requests, and our ideas about the current study we're doing. I didn't know what to name the blog, and I was looking at the back of the "So Long Insecurity" workbook, and it had this scripture & I thought it was perfect!
"She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future" - Proverbs 31:25
Feel free to add comments to this blog & keep up with it as you want - but this is where prayer requests will be posted :)
Love y'all!
Allison
