The first time I went to India the Summer of 2006, I went to the bible book store to find a study to do that would prepare me for my journey with God to India. I ended up selecting the book What Happens When Women Walk In Faith. Okay, I know, from my previous book choices you know that I tend to pick a book by its cover, and yes this one was no different. But I do have to say that after doing this study I did feel that I could go on this adventure into India knowing that God would be right there with me and he did not disappoint.
So as I was looking for a new book to study before heading back into India, I choose another book by Lysa TerKurst, What Happens When Women Say Yes to God. I thought that this is really what I wanted to do, say yes to God. But right now, today, saying yes seems to be very daunting. Although, the study is very good and the scriptures are very encouraging, I need to remember when I say yes to God, I need to be ready to go after the opportunities He places before me. What will saying yes mean and am I really ready for this? What if I continue to say yes? How will that change what my life looks like? After saying all of that, I WILL SAY YES, no matter what lies ahead, yikes!
Remember sweet lady - you ARE "Living In His Grip" and He will never never let go of you - as you continue to say yes on this life journey you will bring great joy to the one who is holding you in His grip. You are doing kingdom work!
