15-10-5-1 Get Ready & Go!

Attenion Senior High Retreaters!!!!!!!
I will use this blog to help keep you all accountible and give you some help with our 15-10-5-1 commitment. In fact, let's just call it- 31 commit- if you add the numbers- they come up to 31 and we are committed to doing this- so 31 Commit it is!

Here's the lowdown- and if you weren't at the retreat and want to do this with us...all are welcome! Won't it be fun to see who's keeping up? I think God's got great things in store for you....imagine what he could do if all of us that made that committment kept up with it...

So here's the scoop....

15 - spend 15 minutes a day reading God's Word. Read a verse or a passage and then get a journal or notepad- write down these questions and answer them.

1. What is this verse saying to me, in my own words?

2. What does that mean for me? Specific Application for my life

3. Pray back to God what He's telling you to do.

10-Spend 10 minutes praying- talk to God, thank Him for what He's done and what He's going to do and then just talk to Him like He's your best friend!


5- Do this 5 days a week- ( if you want to do it more, Great! but for now make the committment to do it 5 days a week)

1- Do one random act of kindness a week- look around you and you will see a huge mission field around you, for all God's done for us, it's not too much to ask us to do 1 act of kindness a week.


Ok...you got it...good! If your participating in this, leave us a comment so we can be encouraged as well, leave the verse your reading or tell us about your random act of kindness. This can be a great way to keep us all connected.

Ok...in case your wondering where to start in your Bible Reading, I'm going to be updating this frequently with passages to give you ideas...but you don't have to do these, they are just a suggestion. So here's this week's passage to start with:

Psalm 37:3-8 Look familiar? We did this at the retreat...but take another look at it, by youself and think about what God is trying to tell you in this passage....sometimes when we're by ourself...something else may jump out at us that didn't before.

So here's our starting point...Ready....Set ....Go!
