Faith comes by hearing…

 The notes pictured were written one month after I put the ultrasound  of my little baby- to-be in the front cover of my Bible. My faith had been activated and connected to a larger group. And it’s never been the same since…

The sermon notes (in case my writing is illegible)

       1.She heard about God
      (to hear about God, someone was doing the telling)

      So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. – Romans 10:17 http://bible.us/Rom10.17.NKJV

      and hearing by the word of God

      2. She believed the Word.

      (faith…she had not seen God, but she believed in Him through the Holy Spirit)

      3. She applied the blood.

      (The sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross covered all sin. Yes, even the really bad ones…)

      4. She stood her ground.

      (John 8:31-32, she continued… 31 So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine;32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”)

      The sermon on a ‘Woman in the Wall’ by Stovall Weems from the Shine Conference 2010 at Celebration Church was pivotal for me because it confirmed the shape of my relationship with God- and that I would HEAR from Him.

      That is the subject of this blog: my relationship with God. It’s not religious, it’s not ridiculous; it’s about FREEDOM. I found my freedom in Jesus Christ and I offer a look into that- from my perspective.

    I remember the ‘Woman in the Wall’ message…she stood in the gap :) And I have my notes in my Celebration book too! Shine 2010 definitely was a transformational time in my life as well, God definitely used it to break me, wreck me, and build me into the woman I am today.
