For the ladies

My lovely small group is doing a study on a series called, "Boy Meets Girl", by Louie Giglio from Passion City Church. We've done the first sermon/week one and I LOVE it! It's wonderful and a great reminder of what us ladies deserve. I've already started listening to the second week and I'm just amazed. It's pretty common sense stuff; we're all like, "Oh yeah, yeah"... but when you really listen to it and take it to heart, it means a whole lot more.

Here are some notes I took that I'd like to share: (They're random & spiratic, just FYI)

~God is at the heart of it all.

~Let God put in your heart and mind, a dream of what He is imagining for you.

~YOU have intrinsic value because you were created in the image of God & made in the likeness of God.

This is so true & a reality check for me especially :)
~You are not valuable because of how many friends you have on Facebook, how many people follow you on Twitter, how your hair looks, what kind of car you drive, your accomplishments, how much money you make in a year, etc.

~We can lose sight of how valuable we are, because when we get into relationships, we seek value & acceptance from that other person.

~Ladies: We have "off-the-charts" value!

~See the beauty & value in everyone. Look through the God lense; not the cultural lense.

~Turn the "scam meter" off and the "thank you Jesus meter" on.

~The man's role is to pursue and lead.

~Girls still want a guy who will go through a wall for them. :) (True!)

~We can wear "newness" in place of that brokenness we have in our lives.

~Before any boy meets any girls, boy & girl needs to meet Jesus and love Him first.

~Don't marry any man who is not in love with Jesus!

Step 1: First & foremost, before starting any relationship or even really thinking about it, is to...

Follow Jesus

Can ya dig it? Yessss...
