Delighting in God's Word

Last night we began our meeting by doing a rather rowdy treasure hunt type game. It involved searching the church for plastic coins, pieces of paper & Allison while attempting to do it quickly & fill out a worksheet with your team. Needless to say, there was a lot of running, shouts & excitement. The game is a bit too complicated to attempt explaining here, so you'll have to ask someone who was there.

Anxiously awaiting the return of a teammate...
 
Looking up verses to help complete the team's sheet.
By the end of the game, each team had compiled a list of benefits that can be gained from spending time in Scripture.


Rather than eagerly searching for little plastic coins or pieces of paper, God has given us even greater treasures that can be found in His word! During the lesson I encouraged the girls to delight in God's Word by making the decision to spend time with Him daily.


"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby." 1Peter 2:2



After a time of discussion & accountability in small groups, we ended with tea! Tea is always such a special time of fellowship & enjoying yummy treats! It's exciting to see the friendships being formed around the tables as girls giggle & chat over cups of tea & cookies.



See you all again in a couple weeks! Until then, enjoy the privilege of delighting in God's Word!
