Providence Road - Church of Christ

"God made my life complete when I placed all the pieces before Him. When I cleaned up my act, He gave me a fresh start. Indeed, I've kept alert to God's ways; I haven't taken God for granted. Every day I review the ways He works, I try not to miss a trick. I feel put back together, and I'm watching my step. God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to His eyes." - 2 Samuel 22:21 (MSG)

This is my new favorite verse. It was given to me by one of my favorite people and it spoke so powerfully to me of the transforming power that is available to all of us when we are willing to submit to God's authority in our lives. Transformation is at the heart of what the GEMS Ministry is all about - transforming the lives of women to become more like Christ every day, transforming our relationships to be more loving, transforming our hearts to become servants.

If you are like me, that all sounds great but is much easier said than done! Thankfully God gave us our fellow GEMS - Godly Encouraging Ministering Sisters so that we can "spur one another on toward love and good works" (Hebrews 10:24). The GEMS Ministry is a place to find warmth and acceptance, along with a challenge to become the best YOU there is, the YOU that God wants you to be.

I am looking forward to getting to know all of you and helping you find your place in the GEMS Ministry. Please don't hesitate to contact me at hbarrett@prcoc.org.

Grace and peace,
Holly
