shared scripture

Today's meeting was wonderful.

We each brought a scripture in and placed them in a pile. We then drew one paper out and read it to ourselves. Then, one person at a time read the scripture out loud and told what they thought when they read the verse(s). After they spoke then the person who submitted the verse said why the chose that verse. Of course, the rest of us chimed in our own thoughts as well. Such a nice lunch hour.



*****************************

Psalm 103:4 He ransoms me from death and surrounds me with love and tender mercies.









*****************************

Gabriel speaks to Mary
Luke 1:28 The angel came to her and said, "You are honored very much. You are a favored woman. The Lord is with you. *You are chosen from among many women."



Gabriel speaks to Joseph
Matthew 1:20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit."
*****************************

Luke 10:38-42  Mary at the feet of Jesus while Martha is off somewhere else being busy.

As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lordʼs feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, donʼt you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”  “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.
*****************************
Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.


Please join us for our next meeting in January of 2017. 

with Christ's love!
