  • Had accountability with the Nobel Girls last nite.  I love these times with them!  I think every situation is as you make it, and I think what we've made it is a time of getting together and sharing everything -- even our deepest & darkest.  There is something remarkable about being completely honest.  I feel like it gives me so much room to grow.


    I felt like I could pray more "real" last night.  With more authority, perhaps?  When I'm not just cruising on neutral with God but actually intimate with Him, I find that I can pray with more conviction that He is really and actually listening.  When I believe that He's really listening, there is a different feel to my prayers.  I don't know if THEY (the other girls) can sense it, but it sure is different to me...  I love those kinds of prayers.


    Note:  if you're not in an accountability group, get in one!  I highly recommend it. :)

  • wow... cool :) who are the nobel girls?

  • hey a topic that I just thought of that you could blog about heehee :

    best ways to cut the fat out of money spending and live a simpler life.

    and maybe that could even include wisdoms on that topic and how its helped you?

  • Nobel is the street between Huerta House and Costa Verde Casa.  The residents in these two apartments: (Mary Ann, Sam, Tomoko, Cindy and Pam) meet for accountability every Tuesday night, and we have named ourselves "the Nobel Girls."  :)

  • That's awesome Mary Ann!  I think in general we all need to realize the spiritual reality - that is, God listens and answers our prayers and he does so quickly!  I think if we are mindful of that as we pray, we are able to approach his throne of grace with a lot more confidence.  He has always given us the authority and these gifts- let's unwrap them and put them to use!

  • I want to be in an accountability group!

  • daniel, i'll pray that you'll find one. :)
