Last night I went to community group. I think its been a while since I've talked about what a cg is so I'll refresh everybody's memory. A cg is a group of people (8-10) who grow together in their relationship with God and each other. We meet once a week, and are a branch of the Ring Community Church. I'm going to throw caution to the wind and still call it the Ring. Anywho, its a way to mature in a more intimate way with a group of people and with God. And I love my group. Really. Each one of them has my heart. And last night I was just blown away by how God has blessed me with them. I learn something every time I go. Even when I'm cranky or not in the mood to be there, God still shows up in their faces and whatever we are studying in His word for the week.
We are a big group. Last night was our smallest group we've ever had and we had 19. Usually its 23 people. So we are splitting into two groups. I know its a wonderful thing to be splitting, but I'm still a little sad. Not a lot, I know its a good thing and healthy to split into smaller groups, but I'll still be a little sad to not see some of their faces on Monday nights. God is blessing us as a group tremendously and I'm thrilled to be a part of it. It's just more change and change always takes a little getting used to on my part. I'm glad God has big shoulders because He's getting all of this unloaded onto Him from this heart o' mine.
There are times when I wonder if He gets tired of me chattering in His ear. Oh well, the older I get, the more of a talker I become. Especially when I talk about God. Hello? How can you keep quiet about the God of the Universe who just ADORES you? Who wouldn't want to talk to Him?
