Week Three

Week three featured Rob Meyers as our speaker, he is AMAZING. He is affiliated with Idaho YWAM and has been coming here to CWAM for years. He spoke to us on Hearing the Voice of God. He is blessed with a wonderful gift in teaching and keeping your attention. We were warned ahead of time to make sure to keep all of our water glasses out of the way of his expressive arms and voice. Seriously though he had so much wisdom, and really made you think. I took 20 pages of notes in one week. We took some time to understand how we think of God and how that effects how we will talk to Him. We study Manassah and what God taught Him. We study David and how he communicated with God. We looked at our own prayer lives and asked do we only talk to God when we need him? Our ultimate goal should be we love Him, we want to know Him better and as a result we want to share everything in our lives. We were created for a relationship with Him and a healthy relationship should be a two way communication. When Rob finally had to leave, we tried to twist his arm and make him stay for the next eight weeks, but we were unsuccessful.
We are attending a small, ( I mean less than a hundred people…count ‘em.) small church in Cody. It is a nondenominational church, the pastor and his wife kinda tag team the service. It was good, but will take some getting used to, since it felt more like a bible study then an actual service. Good, but different. The pastor and his wife are super sweet though and staunch supports of CWAM.
All in all I am adjusting well and learning a ton. It is such a gift to spend lots of time studying the Word and growing in Him and relationship with other strong believers.
