L.I.F.E. ministries.....
Living, Learning, and Loving
In
Faith
Everyday!!!
This is going to be my motto and maybe my new ministry. I am so energized by the women's retreat that happened this weekend at my house. Our topic was relationships. I spoke about how the men in our lives shape our perception of our Heavenly Father, forgiveness, love, and how God challenges us to live our life with compassion, kindness, patience, love, forgiveness, mercy, and grace for others in our life.
I am feeling challenged to bring my ministry to a new level. I don't know what this is yet. I am tired of Satan invading our families. I believe he is fighting for souls through our marriages, children, and other family relationships. I say it is time for us as Christians to take a stand and fight against this! I am tired of seeing men leaving their families without any good reason. I am tired of addiction destroying lives.
I don't know if I am suppose to be speaking at women's events, do more women's retreats, do couples retreats, etc. I am feeling like I am suppose to go back to school and get some more bible education and a Masters in Counseling to help me understand and help people live a better Christian life. Send me an email if you have any comments, constructive criticism, or other ideas at: mcooper311@gmail.com.
Don't worry. I am still contrary. I will still be growing my hair out one month and chopping it off the next. I will still be cranky one day and cheerful the next. I will still rearrange furniture just to drive Jim crazy and because I need things to change and be different.
Also, I will still be gardening. Right now my garden looks amazing. I am fighting off some kind of bugs or something that are eating the leaves of my sunflowers and spinach. The compost bin is going well. Just putting stuff out there and letting it rot......haven't gotten any red wigglers yet!
So, tell me what you think about L.I.F.E. ministries.......
