Marching around my Jericho

Learning a lot about how to live life, be a mom, do ministry, teach my kids, impact people...WITHOUT trying to be the person that fixes everyone or wants people to NEED me too much. These scriptures have been life giving and spoken volumes to me as I've tried to "march around my Jericho" this month of March...praying those walls down in my life. Good stuff.

As a prisoner FOR the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely HUMBLE and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Eph 4:1

1 Corinthians 2

¹ And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.^{[a] 2} For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. ³ I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling. ⁴ My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, ⁵ so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep...I am the good shepherd. I know my sheep and my sheep know me- just as the Father knows me and I know the Father--and I lay down my life for the sheep. John 10: 11, 14

Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them. John 13: 14--17

My grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 2 Cor 12: 9
