The Power to Thrive

This morning at 6:00 am we started our second Fragrance of Prayer Teleseminar, Thriving in 2012.  The excitement was electric as we reconnected and  I shared my teaching on “The Power to Thrive”.  We had a great discussion after the teaching about one of John Ortberg‘s quotes:

Whatever our season of life, it offers its own opportunities and challenges for spiritual growth.  Instead of wishing we were in another season, we ought to find out what this one offers.

To thrive is to:

• prosper
• be successful
• have fortune
• or flourish.

I am including just a few tidbits from the session this morning.  I am sure you will find them useful as you continue to pursue your spiritual growth in 2012.

What season of life are you in now?

What opportunities for spiritual growth do you have?

What challenges are you facing?

Do you have the necessary tools to find out what this season of your life has to offer?

All of the above questions will aid you in  determining your season and discovering the power necessary to thrive in that season.

We concluded our time this morning with prayer.  May I suggest that as you work through the questions you spend time praying about the answers.  You will certainly find wisdom and direction as you seek God.
