Am I My Sister's Keeper? Gen 4:9 To enable us to do this we must remember the truths from the Arise! theme from last year, “My beloved is mine and I am His”. We are each one as an individual totally loved, totally accepted, and therefore totally able to give and receive love, Not because of anything else, but that God made us in His image, in His likeness and placed within each of us all His attributes; all we need to enable us to relate to, give to and enjoy the people God places in our lives. When we totally believe that we are accepted and acceptable we will not feel intimidated when faced with relationship challenges because people who know that they are loved don’t notice when others “hurt” them but respond with love knowing that ”hurting people hurt people”. We also have a responsibility to reach out to a really hurting world, a world that is looking for and needs answers and ladies we have the answer and He has placed within us all the power, creative ideas and ability we need to get out there and “do the job”. So amid the balloons and bubbles, the laughter and chatting, the yummy food and coffee you will see God create in you a desire to break loose get out of your comfort zone and find the world that is looking for what YOU have to offer it, all this through God’s enabling and creative power working in and through you. I personally am so looking forward to our time together,
most of all to see what God has in store for each one of us this weekend. It is
