It is GOD who BLESSES and TRANSFORMS...

This is a blog for women (not just moms) who:

(1) Desire to be transformed by JESUS' LOVE, HOLINESS, AND GRACE;

(2) Believe that GOD'S WORD is the true Spirit food for HIS HOLY SPIRIT who lives within us;

(3) Submit to GOD and walk this journey of life with HIM transforming us more and more into HIS likeness.

It's a blog about the POWER OF TRANSFORMED LIVES. Let's begin with yours and mine and pass it on... 1 + 1 + 1...

Since GOD's HOLY SPIRIT lives inside a christian, let's choose to be nurtured and transformed by feasting daily on HOLY SPIRIT food - GOD's WORD - The Holy Bible..

My regular posts stopped in 2013, with a major move and the chronic illness and eventual death of our oldest daughter. Yes, we grieve daily, yet I am determined to continue to let the LIGHT of my LORD and SAVIOR shine through me. I have tried to start posting again, over the last few years, but have not been consistent. So, I think the biggest blessing for you and me both will be to intersperse some new posts while revisiting some of the former posts. Let's begin with "Oh, the JOY!" as we head into living through Fall 2019; meeting back here 1-2 days a week.

If you need daily encouragement, you will find plenty by clicky on past posts. When reading earlier posts, you will see that I often posted daily, following this format: ...Sunday in the SON, Meditation Monday, GratiTuesday, Women in the WORD Wednesday, Transforming Thursday, Family Fellowship Friday, Ketchup & Mustard Saturday.


There's a whole lot here! Take your time to browse.

Please come back and visit each week. Welcome!

Because of JESUS, we can be family,

Patti





TRANSFORMED MOMS:MOMS TRANSFORMED

Romans 12:1-2 "Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect."

GOD STILL MOVES - 50 YEARS LATER

.
This truly is FAMILY FELLOWSHIP FRIDAY for the Pitman church of Christ. Tonight begins our weekend celebration of this church's 50th anniversary. Members who have moved away are returning for the fellowship. Tonight the festivities begin as we join together for a two hour hymn sing!
.
A group of people began meeting together 50 years ago, not knowing what the future held and they chose to walk by faith and not by sight. These were people who believed in The Great I AM told about in the Holy Bible... The Creator of the universe.... The Savior and Deliverer of people who chose to TRUST and OBEY the I AM and walked BY FAITH and not by sight... people like Noah who had never seen rain before... and Moses who had not seen waters part before...
.




.
Fifty years ago, this group of people began meeting as a group of followers of the GREAT I AM, believing that His Son had

  • lived a perfect life on this earth
  • been crucified for it
  • not allowed death and the grave to hold Him
  • come back to life





Today, as disciples of Jesus Christ, we believe that although He returned to heaven, He has left part of Himself with us, THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD to...
.
  • INDWELL us
  • HELP us
  • give LIFE to us (ETERNAL LIFE)
  • COMFORT us
  • LEAD us
    .

So, 50 years later, this fellowship of believers continues to strive to walk in the light of Jesus Christ and grow in what Dan the preacher-man talked about last Sunday and I wrote about yesterday...

.

  • TRANSFORMATION BY THE HOLY SPIRIT OF THE GREAT I AM

  • SINCERE LOVE

  • BELIEF THAT GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME

  • DEVOTION TO ONE ANOTHER

  • SPIRITUAL FERVOR

  • JOYFUL HOPE... REJOICING IN ALL THINGS

  • PATIENCE IN AFFLICTION

  • FAITHFULNESS IN PRAYER

  • SHARING WITH GOD'S PEOPLE IN NEED

  • PRACTICING HOSPITALITY

  • BLESSING THOSE WHO PERSECUTE - EVEN OUR ENEMIES

  • OVERCOMING EVIL WITH GOOD

If we claim to have fellowship with Him

yet walk in the darkness,

we lie and do not live by the truth.

7 But if we walk in the light,

as He is in the light,

we have fellowship with one another,

and the blood of Jesus, His Son,

purifies us from all sin."

1 John 1:6-7
