Day 1 - Welcome to a Confident Heart

So excited to start this "Confident Heart" journey with you!

Now the first thing I want you to remember is that this is YOUR journey. You'll be reading the chapters, listening to God speak to your heart, highlighting sentences, promises and quotes you want to remember and apply. You'll be answering reflection questions and interacting with the group.

You'll be doing the work of believing God!


I'll be shepherding, leading, encouraging, connecting and pacing us. I'll be sharing my heart and more of my story...because I want you to share yours.
I'll be praying for you and challenging you - but you'll only get out as much as you put in.

Today, I asked the Lord what I needed to give up - so I can give more to Him - and this study. I immediately sensed Him whispering "work." And I knew it was Him. I love my job and I've been working too many late night hours after the kids go to bed. So I'm cutting back the next several weeks to consecrate more of me TO HIM and to you!

What will you cut back on to make time for Him and yourself these next several weeks? I'm really going to challenge you and give you permission to block out at least a little bit of time each day to concentrate on replacing the OLD with the NEW He has for you! Ready? Here we go:

A Confident Heart Online Study (Day 1):

Read the Acknowledgements
(I'll explain on my website tomorrow why I wanted you to do this).

Read Chapter 1.
Please highlight verses and sentences that grab your attention or tug on your heart. What is God saying to you though this chapter?
Write down what you sense God speaking to your heart in the margins of your book, or in a journal/notebook that you'll use throughout this study.

A video message
from my heart to yours is coming tonight since I'm not quite ready to post it yet. But I wanted to go ahead and send this so you can get started!

Hugs and blessings,
Renee
