Flourishing in the Word
15-Minute Bible Studies to Nourish Your Soul
Friend,
how are you and Jesus doing today? Is your faith
flourishing
?
The Master Gardener wants your faith to flourish! A flourishing faith grows, thrives, and spreads just like flowers in a beautiful garden. When you spend time in God’s presence absorbing His light and being fed by His Word, your faith can become more vibrant and alive. But, sometimes the clouds of an unexpected work project or the weeds of bitterness and impatience pop up and threaten to wilt what God is doing in our lives. The concerns of life can distract us, and before long, a day of missed appointments with Jesus turns into two, then a week; the guilt sets in, and just like that, your faith starts to wilt. You need some Living Water—fast! But how do you get back to flourishing? Just Between Us is here to help you flourish in your relationship again! We’ve put together four of our Flourishing in the Word Bible studies to help you spend quality time with Jesus without feeling overwhelmed. Meet God in your favorite spot and chat with Him about “growing roots” like rest, joy, and peace. How to Use the Study You can use the studies in so many ways. Do a study with someone—grab a girlfriend and discuss a few questions over coffee, or use the studies in a small group that prefers less homework. Each study gives you short passages of Scripture to read, questions to help you dig deeper into God’s Word, and a journaling prompt to write how the Spirit has spoken to you. Use our Journal Your Heart page that follows the studies. These studies are designed to be manageable —even on your busiest days. The studies only take 15 minutes. Grab a few minutes in the morning or read the Scripture and meditate on it throughout your day, or answer some of the questions in the study and ask the Lord for insight at lunchtime. Take a few quiet moments to journal in the evening about how the Spirit spoke to you through His Word, and pray about how you can apply what He’s been teaching you. Let God use these simple studies to help you flourish in your relationship with Him again! Enjoy!
