On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb.
Luke 24:1
Do you have Jesus Girls in your life?
I haven't always had Jesus Girls in my life, but this
fall God dropped me right in the middle of a holy band of Jesus Girls.
Let me tell you about
these girls. They,
•
love the Lord,
•
know the Word,
•
pray together,
•
accept one
another,
•
encourage one
another, and
•
are on mission
together.
Being with them is like
drinking sweet, sweet water.
Doesn't this sound great?
In your busy life, wouldn't it be wonderful to have women who
really "get" you? Who accept you regardless of what you've been
through, what you've done, or where you are in your walk with the Lord? Who build courage
in your heart, and point your attention to Jesus, no matter
what?
Do you have girls like this in your life? If you don't, here's what I would suggest.
Do you have girls like this in your life? If you don't, here's what I would suggest.
Ask
Ask God to bring some Jesus
Girls into your life. Girls, we need each other. This life is hard
and we need women who will place courage into our hearts to help us run the
race well. Ask God, and keep asking him. Ask.
Seek
Keep your eyes open.
Who are those women who you haven't chosen, but God seems to be bringing
into your life? You may seem to have nothing in common with them.
You may be at totally different seasons of life, but perhaps they're your
Jesus Girls. Seek.
Knock
Take action. Don’t sit
back and wait for them to come to you. Be willing to knock on some doors.
Frankly, be willing to take some rejection and experience some
disappointment when the girls you feel drawn to are not your Jesus Girls.
You'll know they're your Jesus Girls when God opens the
door. It really will be like a haven has been opened up to you and you are welcomed regardless of your history, your baggage, the strain you're under right now, or your personal areas for growth. Knock.

Just like God pulled together
Mary, Mary, Joanna and others to love Him, to serve Him, and to tell
others about Him, He pulls together holy bands of Jesus Girls today for the very same purpose. I'm so blessed
to have Jesus Girls in my life, and I want this for you too.
Do you have Jesus Girls in your
life? If so, tell me about them. email me at cynthiafin@gmail.com, or
leave me a message.
I'd love to ASK the Lord to bring you some Jesus Girls, because we all
need some Jesus Girls in our lives. And, I'd love to see you
over at www.cindyfinley.com. Pop in and let me know that you found me through Knowing God Ministries.
