Our verse for this week is Jeremiah 22:16..."He defended the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well. 'Is that not what it means to know me?' declares the Lord."
Hi Girls!
We've reached another one of my favorite ladies from the New Testament this week and I hope that her story will inspire you this week. I don't want to give away the ending of her story just yet, but I do hope you'll join us to hear more about this amazing woman and all God did through her!!
Tabitha/Dorcas story is found in Acts 9:36-42
As always our themes for the week will be:
- Monday: Her story--a portrait of her life
- Tuesday: Her life and times--background information about the culture of her day
- Wednesday: Her legacy in Scripture
- Thursday: Her promise--the Bible promises that apply to her life and yours
- Friday: Her legacy of prayer--and praying in light of her story
We want to also encourage you to be thinking along these lines as you study Dorcas throughout the week. Ask yourself:
- What life lessons stand out to me from her life?
- How does the culture of that day have an impact on her circumstances?
- What stands out as her legacy ?
- What's the greatest takeaway/promise from her story?
- How does her story prompt you in the area of prayer?
All for now!
I hope you are just as excited as we are to begin this week's study on the life of Dorcas!
We'll see you in the morning!
Blessings!
