Discipleship is Sweet

In this new year, Meredith and I are carving out time to study this book together by Susan Hunt.

Prayers of the Bible
Equipping Women to Call on God in Truth. . .

It's focus is prayer, but Susan Hunt, one of my favorite authors, examines prayers from the Bible in light of our redemptive purpose in creation to be true women (title of another of her wonderful works).

I am reminded every day that the time is quickly drawing near when Meredith will be off to college.  I absolutely treasure the time we have together to pray and study God's word. To be equipped - each of us for our different stages of life as women.  To disciple her and mentor her as she is growing into womanhood.  Discipleship is sweet and I feel so blessed to have a daughter with a teachable heart and a spirit that longs for a closer walk with the Lord.

Of course we are both busy and our greatest battle will be to hold each other accountable to this study and to our time together.  May God be glorified as we call upon His name together.

Psalm 145:18 says the Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth!
