Assignment for Friday, January 30

Today's assignment is to answer questions 8 and 9 and do the Digging Deeper exercise. You probably won't have anything to post on that Digging Deeper part but I would be interested in reading what truths you find to apply to our lives. I have underlined a couple of things I found. I'll let you know what they are if none of you write about them. :)

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. Whew. I think I have finally transferred from Old King James into New King James.

Oh yeah. It's Friday. Can you still quote the first memory verse?

Assignment for Thursday, January 29

More on growing up today...do questions 6 and 7. Have any of you ever had a friend that told you something about yourself you hadn't consciously recognized - something not too pleasant? I have. It made me mad. Then it made me sad when I recovered from my mad and realized she was right. It was one of the nicest things she could have done for me. Are we brave enough to help others grow?

Today's questions are pretty simple. The real trick is making sure you are taking advantage of the answers! Do questions 4 and 5.

Assignment for Tuesday, January 27

I forgot to remind you to look at the assignment in Ponder and Pray yesterday. Hopefully you are already developing that habit without my reminder! Today's assignment is to answer questions 2 and 3. I'd be interested in hearing how you might apply the answer you give to question 3 to your life - specifically.

My brethren count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.

Assignment for Monday, January 26

Yea! A new week with all kinds of new adventures in it. Are you ready? This week we are looking at encouraging growth in the people around us. Today answer Clearing the Cobwebs and question 1. Now that question 1 is a little longer than normal, but that's OK. We haven't had a challenging Monday yet. We can do it! Yea, us!!!

We'll take another week on memorizing James 1:2-3. Maybe on Friday we'll review both of our verses so far.
