So Long, Insecurity!


As most of you know, I love B-Moore. She has really opened up Scripture to me and taught me many things through the Lord's guidance.  God and I have come a long way in my life, and Beth has been a tool for me to learn from and listen to throughout this journey together.  She has great in-depth Bible studies that allow you to dig deep in Scripture and go places with God.

This is her newest book, So Long, Insecurity!  I have absolutely loved it!!!  I first learned about it on her blog where she asks questions from the book each week and encourages you to answer them for yourself. My friend, Becca, and I have "Walks and Worship" where we walk and talk about the questions she has asked from the book.

Insecurity has really been a robber in my life. It has stolen things from me that I will not allow to be taken from me anymore. Insecurity has been a true struggle in my life. I would say the worst thing that it has done is cause me not to trust God at times, who is the most faithful of all. The book has allowed me to look deep inside to my thinking patterns and beliefs that I have held all my life, hold them up to the Light of God's Word and relearn His truth.  What victory and joy there is that we have a God who is willing to work with us and teach us so that we can become free in Him!

Beth is having a simulcast on this book all over the country on April 24th. My bible study is going to the one that Seacoast church is hosting in Charleston. If you are free that Saturday, you should find a church that is hosting and go.  I promise you will learn a ton and maybe even discover some places God can work with you as well.

Just thought I would share my heart and why I am thankful to tell insecurity, "so long!!!".

10 things...

I am such a copy-cat today, but I love this idea! My favorite, Beth Moore, started this on her blog,  and then I noticed my girls, Alyssa and Kathyrn did it on their blogs too. I am learning so many new things about people and, naturally, I need to do it now! Here are the directions: What are 10 things - right off the top of your head - that we would only know about you if we knew you really well? 10 random things ranging anywhere on your personal map that make you a tad distinctive? Or just plain weird? Think quickly. Don't go for deep. Go for quirky. Don't try to put them in any kind of order and don't make them long. Just start typing. Since this is the Reese blog, I will attempt to do it for both of Ryan and myself.... Anna: 1. I hate to shave. Freshman year of college, I only shaved once a week and my friends and people I worked with tried to straighten me out with weekly "armpit checks"...sick, but true. 2. I love zits, abscesses, blood blisters---an...

Miracle!!

Ryan and I are so so thankful and excited to make the announcement that we are having a baby! Right now, I have just finished up the first trimester. The baby is almost 15 weeks old. We actually get to find out the gender in a couple of weeks, which is so exciting! It has been such a wonderful time. The Lord has truly blessed us with this miracle. Through this process, the thing that I have been thinking the most of in my heart is that the Lord is good. I don't know why this truth is sometimes hard for me to soak in. Life is hard and trials happen- this is so true and the trials do not make God any less good. However, sometimes, the Lord just gives to His children. I find it so crazy that I am resistant to believe this at times, but I always look at the toughest or hardest outcome in a situation and assume that it will happen. However, through this, I have been reminded that although the Lord allows hard things to happen at times to shape and define us, He does good things a...

Praises!!!!

I found out this morning that I passed the board exam! I am beyond thankful for this blessing. All the time I was studying I was in a cloud of doubt...wondering if the PA profession was right for me, what would I do if I failed, how was I ever going to get through it? But, this process brought me to my knees in new ways. I prayed each day for His strength to bring His work to completion. This was the verse that I would repeat throughout the days of studying and it is so special to me: "You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me; you stoop down to make me great." -Psalm 18:35 The Lord answers prayer. This small prayer about helping give me success with the boards to bigger prayers about salvation for our loved ones and healing for those who are sick. We serve a God who hears us....HOW AMAZING!! He stoops down to uphold us in His right hand. Trust in Him today, friends. He IS surely big enough for anything you can lay at His feet. He hears you an...
