I am absolutely in love with this journal.  The studies are so personal and carry such a profound impact.  This week was about believing in the promises that God has stated that he will keep.  The first section I completed this week referenced Romans 4:25 "He who was delivered over because of our transgressions, and was raised because of our justification.  Also, Hebrews 6:9-20 which was an eye opening read.

My next study was teaching how to basically love one another regardless of who persecutes you.  There were two chapters in II Corinthians that literally had me in tears.  II Corinthians 12:9-11 and also all of chapter 13.  I really loved the passage that states if someone asks you to walk a mile with them, then walk two.  It is so easy to react to the negativity in the world with negativity but according to the scripture we must fight negativity with kindness, understanding, and love; all which are hard to do when faced with challenges.

The third study was in reference to how God will judge us and how his judgements are justified.  The scriptures referenced were Psalm 7:11 and I John 3:20.  Again through scripture we are challenged to whole heartily trust in God, his word, and the promises that are given.
