Ladies Retreat: Points to Ponder

7th Annual Sectional Ladies Retreat
Speaker: Sis Cindy Miller
Valuable Points to Ponder

Take responsibility for your actions.

We are to be students of the World. Take notes at church and go home and study them. But, information without application is wasted.

Be around people who are good for you.

We need to look at some of our acceptable addictions that we use to self soothe...we are quick to self soothe by eating, shopping or calling a friend. How about spending time in prayer before using those measures to make ourselves feel better when we are down?

The PLAN is to serve, Jesus because of who He IS, not because of what He DOES. Don't serve God for the benefits even though there are benefits. God is not a vending machine.

Don''t try to manage your sin and your bad behaviors, be FREE from them!

If you are tired, it could be because you are carrying a load that He did not ask you to carry. Set it down at an alter.

There is no victory in wishful thinking. There is a difference between optimism and FAITH.

Roman 8:28 says all things work together for good, not, everything works together to make me Feel Good!

When you change on the inside, everything changes.

The very thing that may have defeated you, could actually be your launching pad.

Sometimes, we are good at church, but not as good at being spiritual.

Submit yourself to Jesus and you can live godly in an ungodly world.
