Missed you girls Sunday and am looking forward to seeing each of you this Sunday. I'm posting my new verse for February and it would be great if you would post yours also! Have a great week!
Mrs. Debbie verse for February:
"If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like minded, having the same love and being one in Spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interest, but also to the interest of others."
Philippians 2:1-4

Scripture Memory
So very proud of you ladies for taking the challenge and making it a priority to memorize your scriptures!!
Brooke: John 10:10
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it to the fullest."
Brandi: John 14:6
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
Darby: Philippians 1:3
"I thank my God every time I remember you."
Desi: Romans 12:1 & Psalm 95:3 (whoo hoo - way to go memorizing 2!!)
"Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship."
"For the Lord is the great God; the great King above all gods."
Mrs. Debbie: Ephesian 4:29
"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."
Jourdan: Titus 1:7-9
"Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless - not overbearing, not quick tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. Rather he must be
hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and disciplined. He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.
Kirstyn: **** I have James 4:4 written down by think I may have it wrong. What was your scripture?
Macy: Romans 12:2
"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."

"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

Let us remember to "Feed" each other! See short story below:
A Holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, 'Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.
The Lord led the holy man to two doors.
He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in.
In the middle of the room was a large round table.
In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water.
The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly.
They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful.
But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.
The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.
The Lord said, 'You have seen Hell. They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one.
There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water.
The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking.
The holy man said, 'I don't understand."
'It is simple,' said the Lord. 'It requires but one skill.
You see, they have learned to feed each other.
The greedy think only of themselves.'
When Jesus died on the cross, he was thinking of you.
Help us to think of others before thinking of ourselves! Share God's love with someone today!

To be loyal to God our Father is to love Him. To love Him is to honor His wishes. To honor Him is to obey Him. To obey Him is to find ourselves enriched with the presence of His person. This is to be filled with His Spirit. This is to be empowered to live life to the fullest and in quiet faith without fear of men or event. (from the book "Joshua" by Phillip Keller)

Welcome to First Baptist Mauriceville 7th, 8th & 9th Grade Girls' Sunday School Class blog. This blog is intended to encourage one another in our daily walk with Jesus Christ, to share His Word and to show us that "God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."
