The Gospel and Love Alyssa White

Hey everyone!!! It’s been awhile….like almost 2 months🙈😅
I had to take some time off to regroup and refocus on what God has for my life, and how He wants me to use this platform going forward.
So, today I’m just gonna catch you guys up on what’s been going on in my life and talk about my struggle with anxiety these past few months.

The story of Eve is usually seen as the story of “where the first human beings went wrong.” Eve messed everything up for us, right? (Remember Adam was responsible too.) But Eve is more than just the first person to get it wrong. She is, actually, a picture of all of us, a picture of some of our moments of doubt and even our moments of anxiety. And what we’re gonna learn from her today is that these things don’t have to define us.

Hannah is a woman in the Bible who dealt with so much adversity in her life, yet she continued seeking out the Lord. Hannah was barren, taunted by another woman, and was angry with God. But despite Hannah’s challenges, she was determined to surrender and submit everything to the Lord. She prayed through her pain and resolved to continue to trust God. Hannah is GOALS!! I aspire to have the same faith and willingness to submit to the Lord, just like her.

Did you know there’s only two books in the entire Bible that are named after women: Esther and Ruth. And today we’re gonna be focusing all on Ruth!! Ruth is also one of few women who are mentioned in the genealogy of Jesus, which is found in the book of Matthew. And this was during a time when women weren’t usually included in genealogies. All that to say, Ruth is a pretty special woman and I’m so excited to talk about her and just ramble :)

There are so many amazing women in the Bible that we’re gonna dig deeper into this next season. But first, we’re gonna start off with Mary! You may think that’s a little odd, because all we really know her for is giving birth to Jesus Christ…..so what else could we possibly learn from her life? Well, today we're gonna go over some of the lessons God’s Word has taught me through the life of Mary.

Do you procrastinate sometimes? I know I absolutely do! Whether that be with school, work, or even with some of the things God calls us to do. Anyway, today we’re gonna be talking about ‘Procrastination’. And how a ‘Godly Grit’ is the antidote for it.
