Winter - a Time For Growth!

Usually trees and plants stop growing in the winter... they just survive. During winter they go through a stage known as dormancy. During dormancy, trees shut down for a short period, and then burst back to life in the spring.




Even in the winter we are called, as children of God, to GROW!

No matter the stage of life we find ourselves the word of God is relevant. It is alive and can feed our soul, if we would take the time to sit and "eat" it!


In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:1


And Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
John 6:35


If you are like me. it's hard to make time to sit and read your Bible, much less stay consistent at it.

A special group called Good Morning Girls has helped me in this area, and it may be what you need this winter too!


What Are Good Morning Girls? Courtney , co-leader of GMG, shares:

“Good Morning Girls” are a group of Christian women who email, facebook, twitter or text messaging to keep each other accountable for their quiet times.

The winter session will run from January 15th – April 15th.

Read more about what GMG is all about here!


It's not too late to grab a friend, or two, for five and dive into the word of God together!


A few of my Good Morning Girls from our 1 John study last fall!


Remember (myself included), God promises:


"And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart."
Jeremiah 29:13


May God bless you and fill you as you read His holy word!

Blessings,
