--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/blessed-is-she-podcast/supportLet's talk about how we can fall in love with Scripture. The Word of God is living and active (Hebrews 4:12). But how do we allow it to come to life in our lives and in our hearts? What does it mean by being active?
Why does it matter and how do we read scripture? Maybe some of us never learned or have often felt intimidated.. We are so happy to share our experience with falling in love with the Word of God.

Whether it's in your past or in this moment, Jesus wants you to know that He is a Savior, Healer, and Deliverer. He came to save you. He wants to heal you. He will deliver you.
We'd love to share our stories and pray that the grace of God washes over you on this week's episode of the Gathering Place. Watch over on Youtube or listen on your podcast app. Then share it with a friend?
We can't wait for you both to come out of the darkness and step into His light right alongside us.Here's to healing and wholeness in Jesus' name,
❤️BD

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.” // C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves
