Question 4

Is there a problem right now in your life that you are struggling with? Maybe it sends your emotions out of control or knocks you off your steady ground? How do you think God wants you to respond to the struggle you are dealing with now?

Question 3

Shelia writes about how she allowed outside influences sway her concept of herself and her own struggles. It seems like as women we do this so often. God seems to have us right where He wants us and then we allow others to sway us off His mark. Instead of having courage we run in fear. Why are we so easily swayed away from God and His plans?

Question 2

I am always trying to get God to change what is "wrong" with me and my current situation. I love the part in the chapter about learning to "stand still" with God. But, I know God has us each at a very specific place for a good reason. How can we learn to stand still with God?

Question 1

Like Shelia, I have asked God the "fix me" many times. Whether it was my emotions, or I wasn't able to measure up in a relationship, school, work, etc. Have you ever had this type of conversation with God?

Chapter 1 Discussion

I hope you all enjoyed reading the first chapter. Although it was short, I think that it had some issues that we all face as women. Emotional imbalances, depression, comparing ourselves to what others think and say about us, etc. Here are a few questions about the chapter. Feel free to comment, ask more questions of each other and discuss as openly as you feel comfortable with...
