T.G.I.F.

I don't know if this will shock all of you or not, but I have some news that I think you will find interesting. I have just started The Purpose Driven Life study. Our church did it about 5 years ago and we got the book, but never did it. Lillie was an infant and honestly we just were not plugged in at that time. I am only on day 3 and I can tell already why it was and still is a great tool.

Instantly I was challenged and I dig that. I like for a book to grab you right off the bat. The first 4 words "It's not about you" are just riveting!! How awesome would it be if we all could grasp that idea? How much more would our church's grow, how many people would erase the word "Hypocrite" from there vocabulary, and how much happiness could we spread? Imagine a church where the focus was on other people instead of personal feelings!! We could turn this whole world upside down.

I will be sharing from my journey of this study over the next 37 days. I know a lot of you have already been a part of this study, and if you have anything to share please feel free. You know that y'all can post a comment...right?


On to the title of today's post. No I do not have my days mixed up, I either read this or heard it I can't remember, but I know it's good. Instead of Thank God It's Friday, we can use it as Today God Is First. I can see you smiling now. You (like me) have probably never thought of it that way, but now you will. And just maybe we can start applying this little acronym of TGIF the way it should be used. Do you make God first everyday? Will you commit to start right now? I am.

Have a Blessed Day!!!
