Build a Best Yes Legacy

Build a Best Yes Legacy

Ahh! I can't believe we are here — the last week of The Best Yes.

These weeks together have just flown by!
I feel like if you've made it these last six weeks of this study, you are a woman who longs for consistency with God. You make commitments. You follow through with them. Your journey through this study is a reflection of that.
But no one does this perfectly. Including me.
And one of my Best Yes decisions through this study is to be a woman who consistently experiences the power of God in my life.
"We want big directional signs from God. God just wants us to pay attention." -Lysa TerKeurst, The Best Yes
When my time with God is inconsistent, I make choices that don't make me the best me.
"Every day we make our choices. Then our choices make us." -Lysa TerKeurst, The Best Yes

So this week, I want to be a woman who finishes strong. I want consistent God-encounters during my day. And I want to live as our verses this week say … with firm steps.

Firm steps. Yes, I want that! But do you see the part of those verses that say, "those who delight in God?"
Well, what on earth does it mean to "delight in God"?

I think we could over-complicate this thought or we could keep it really simple:
Do what pleases Him by keeping His Truth close.

When we delight in God we will:
Be able to discern what is best for us.
Make wise choices to help develop the best version of us.
Gain the confidence to believe we can live our Best Yes life.

We will stumble but when we are consistent with God, His hand will uphold us.
And I don't know about you, but that is a promise I want to hold tightly this week.
Let's be women seeking consistent encounters with God all week. I'm looking at my schedule right now and determining how I can best do this and I want to invite you to join me.
This Week:

1. This week we are reading through Chapters 16, 17, 18 and 19 and the optional reading in Proverbs 26-31.
2. Look at your schedule and "predetermine" when your Best Yes time with God is going to be this week.
3. Write down this week's verses or print off this week's graphic and focus on those words, "firm steps." What do firm steps look like for you?
I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope He has given to those He called – His holy people who are His rich and glorious inheritance. Ephesians 1:18 NLT)
In the same way that iron sharpens iron, a person sharpens the character of his or her friend. (The Voice)

Good Friday

Happy Good Friday This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified. I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead. Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions. Family traditions can be as simple as attending ️ church and having lunch or brunch together. Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to tea...

Why God Wants to Bless You!

Why God Wants to Bless You! “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV), “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
