God answers prayers

Yesterday I went to my apartment complex managers to ask if I could host a community Women Bible Study in the rec room and they gave me a resounding YES! No questions asked they just said "That would be GREAT!"

I am truly humbled by this endeavor to reach out to my community. My community is full of hurt and needy people, we have all ages, and a mix of ethnic groups as I said before it is exactly who Jesus would welcome into his kingdom. Yet, I feel so inadequate to take on such a task and I need prayer and wisdom as to what to teach and how to personally reach out to each of the women that may come.  I tell my husband that sometimes I think that God has allowed us to stay where we have been financially because if he had blessed us more we would have left and not have done a thing to reach out with the Gospel. 

My prayer these last two weeks has been that I would not fear man more than I love God and it continues to be my prayers as I search and pray over what to teach. I am excited to see who God will bring to these studies and I believe that this desire would not even be in my heart if God did not already have a few people in mind of who he wants to encourage, uplift, love on, and open a door of hope!

The first study will either be on Monday Sept 19th or Thursday the 22nd I am waiting to hear back from some childcare volunteers as to what day would be best for them to help. Please pray with me and for me as I seek to love on a community of women.
