what’s next: meditation + confession


BY Amanda Bible Williams

psst – See the bottom of today’s post for this week’s #SheSharesTruth assignment!

 

Happy Monday, friends!

And congratulations on reading through another Old Testament gem – the book of Jonah!

So, tell us, what did you think of ole Jonah? Did his story capture your heart (and attention!) the way it did ours?

We’d love to hear what stood out to you most and what truth you’ll carry with you as we move forward. Feel free to share in the comments!

Speaking of moving forward…

We’re halfway through our 4-part Lent series!

After a 2-day breather, we’ll start Part 3: Meditation + Confession on Wednesday, April 2. This section will be a little out of the ordinary in its structure, and we pray it will give your mind, heart and soul a good, quiet truth-soak in preparation of Holy Week.

On that note, we’re going to hush now and give you some time to catch up on Jonah, spend a few extra moments in prayer, or maybe even flip the pages of your real or virtual Bible open and see where it lands.

We pray God meets you right where you are today and that you will know – deep down in your bones, in a way you just can’t shake – how very deeply, fully and relentlessly you are loved by the One who made you and calls you His own.

See you here tomorrow for an off-day treat — a special guest!

xo,
Amanda + Raechel

P.S. Have you checked our Kickstarter campaign lately? We’re only $11,500 away from our Android goal!! 870 of you have donated to make this community’s dream a reality, and that. is. amazing. What a gift! And do you know what really blows our minds? That incredible number is still less than 1.5% of number of individual women who gather here each month. So keep rallying, Sisters! The Android app (and the virtual conference!) are absolutely within reach! *high fives*

P.P.S. Almost forgot to share the #SheSharesTruth assignment for this week!
This week, we invite you to study and share Joshua 1:8-9. As you read, pray and write, keep in mind the theme of meditation and confession that we’ll begin exploring this Wednesday. We can’t wait to hear what the Lord teaches you about these two tiny, truth-packed verses!

To read more about the idea and heart behind #SheSharesTruth, go here. To see a list of community share from last week, go here. We hope you’ll join us as we study and share as a community on the passage of Joshua 1:8-9 this Friday!

    the entire book of Jonah, this is (so far) the best story I've read about , repentance, fasting, how to act accordingly during the lenten season or how to really confess… I have admitted to myself the bittersweet truth that I have "jonah moments" , ran away from God's calling, because I've misunderstood His ways…I think I know better than Him…but in fact I am completely wrong…I've questioned his judgments…but in the end I realized how BIG his love for everybody…I've messed up big time, but as I read through Jonah…God is waiting…patiently waiting with His arms wide open…

    thank you SRT for helping me in understanding God's way…
    always excited for the reading plan

    God is so dang amazing! I finished a 31 day plan I’ve been trying to finish for months today. I come on here right after to see where you are in the plan, only to find a new one coming up! Meditati

    I've never read Jonah before. Thanks you for allowing me the opportunity to see how "childish" we can be. Looking forward to the new study.
