Day 58
I am really excited about our church service this Sunday. We will be celebrating DAY 60 of our 60/60 experiment, and will be able to hear from a number of people as to how God worked in their lives during the experiment. We will also take time to worship our God who invites us in to this personal relationship. During the service we will be opening up the mic for people to share, so be thinking about if their is some experience from your 60/60 that God would want you to share with others.
For those who have stuck this thing out - way to go! I'm sure that you have a better understanding of what it means to hear God, and to have continual interaction with Him. Even if you consider your experiment to be a "failure", though, I want to encourage you to think about this - did God do or change anything in your life during the 60/60? Are you in a better relationship with Him now that when you began? Did you learn anything about God or about yourself through the 60/60? If so (to any of these), then I would not consider it a failure by any means, but a great learning experience. Just hang in there, and continue to learn the lessons that He is teaching you. And imagine (like Burke prompts us) to imagine what your life could be like 3 years down the road.
May He continue to change you into the person that He created you to be, and may He complete the great work that He has done in your life.
Blessings.

Our small group has been meeting for about 3 years now, We share and discuss but this 606-60 has been so cool in how we have done things we probably would have never done ... we have shared that extra 10% and learned more about each other and ourseleves in the process; we have affirmed one another and were blessed with understanding how we are viewed by others and how God is using us; we have spent regular time with God - rather than an after thought or"when needed" but as an on-going daily dialouge. Indeed new habit have formed and the trick is not to drift off to old ways. Keep on beeping !

Our group will be meeting for it'sfinal meeting using the Soul Revolution Material. Yes,its probably the last group to be meeting but Praise God,that despite the delays in meeting ,we are still going strong at the finish line! During the week after Thanksgiving,our group met to share a great and delicious Pot-Faith Dinner at the Shivka's(we prefer to call it Pot-FAITH not Pot LUCK, thanks, Bob)and will be meeting on Dec.14,one more time. We have all been blessed to make new friendships and many in the group took a step of faith to join such an experience for the first time,while others who have been in groups before agreed that they were so glad to be involved. The smaller "running partner" groups became an avenue for people to share and pray together for each others very private struggles. Being able to feel safe enough to share with each other is a testament to our groups commitment to each other. I know that we all grew and matured as Christians as a result of joining and attending this group.I am not sure what will happen in the New Year but I do know that God is in control of our hearts and minds in a greater way as a result of Soul Revolution!Kathy Brown
