Action plan

This past week was the first week of our 40 day devotion. The leaders have asked us as the body of the church to take time out of our day to devote to our spiritual growth!


This weeks theme was "preparing to climb" the Christinan climb, the teaching of the apostles, worship, fellowship and prayer! On Saturdays they have started throwing in an "action day" which is like a time to reflect.

This weeks action plan was to block off 60 mins (yes 1hr) of time during one day this week and pray for the entire time. This one is something we both struggle with, we say we just "don't have time" but that isn't true we just don't make the time! Not to mention can you say you've ever talked to god for 1 hour straight? I don't know about y'all but on a daily basis it's so easy to start praying and then letting your mind wonder onto your to do list....it's so hard to not get distracted.

In last nights class we discussed that prayer is one of the most powerful things as a Christian you can do! It is a time to talk with God, not only ask but praise, how we need to give God the glory that we have roofs over our heads or clothes on our backs or food on the table. They might not be the best or cost the most but we are clothed and we are fed and we are warm!

We ask everyone to get on board the action plan train :) and pray for one hour this week. Talk out loud. It will help you stay focused. Talk from your heart! Give God the glory!
