Recap of the Women's Retreat Sunday Message
Several ladies requested Lisa Spangenberg's notes from her talk at the Sunday morning worship service. Lisa provided the following:
What do God’s Shears Look Like, especially for women? (from Secrets of the Vine, by Darlene Wilkinson).
1. Priorities that need to be re-arranged
2. Relationships that need to change or end
3. Busyness that isn’t accomplishing what matters most
4. Dependencies or attachments that we’re ready to grow out of
5. Personal “rights” that God is asking us to surrender to Him.
A great quote from the author:
“I grew up believing that everything I love, treasure, enjoy and consider good on earth is a gift from God. But I didn’t understand that every gift in this life has a time limit. People die, possessions can be destroyed, and positions taken away. That’s just the way life is. And if I assume that everything I hold in my hand today is mine to keep, I will be deeply disappointed. Ultimately, I’ll begin to question God’s character and His intentions toward me – and that can spell big trouble. So, besides keeping my hands open, I’ve imagined a place for an expiration date written on the back of each treasure in my life. Then I leave it up to God to fill in that date. Why not? He is the only one who knows my future anyway. And He is the only one who knows what would be best for me. As David wrote,” But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord; I say, “You are my God.” My times are in Your hand.” Psalm 31:14-15
