Carry each other"s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2

Women of Worship is a group of men and women with a desire to express love for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We hunger for God's word, support one another in prayer and desire a closer relationship with Him.

Heather and I feel that God has put a genuine desire in our hearts to share His word with people. This blog is our attempt to get the Word of God to our friends in a practical and loving way. We are hoping to create a community of people that strengthen one another for the Kingdom of God. No matter where you are in your walk you are welcome here. Please feel free to share prayer requests, opinions, questions or anything that you feel led to say.

and He said.....

They changed the course of history. They taught us to love and value each other. They guide the very lives we desire to live.


Jesus' words.

I meant to fill this entire week with words that Jesus spoke but essentially it has come down to this one day and a passage that I hold on to. It brings me hope, joy and a reminder that the Word of God is a living promise of my salvation.

Matthew 9:20-22Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, "If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed."

Jesus turned and saw her. "Take heart, daughter," he said, "your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that moment.

I can picture myself in her shoes. Desperate.

She had probably been taught from a young age the promises of the coming Messiah. She believed. In all her agony, she knew all she had to do was touch him. I admire her faith and desire it daily.

To know his promises so deeply. To trust the knowledge of his words to reach out for Him. There is so much in this life we all need healing from, be it spiritual or physical. What are you reaching for? Where is your faith?

I pray you learn to know His word and write the promises on your heart. He wants to heal you, to love you.
