Women’s Morning Study- Crazy Love Week 7

This week we discussed chapter 8 of Crazy Love at study, it was titled “Profile of the Obsessed”.  As Francis points out, “the Bible teaches us to be consumed with Christ and to faithfully live out his words”.  When our minds are fixed on (obsessed with) Jesus and focused on the life to come, we experience joy and peace.

Here are a few of the points from the book that we are to think about and we discussed in our group;

“People who are obsessed with Jesus”

  • give freely and openly without censure
  • aren’t consumed with their personal safety and comfort above all else
  • live lives that connect them with the poor somehow
  • are more concerned with obeying God than doing what is expected or fulfilling the status quo
  • know that the sin of pride is always a battle
  • do not consider service a burden
  • are known as givers not takers
  • This is the mindset that we should strive for, a committed, mature love for God and others, while remaining humble.

    God bless you this week,

    Sylvia
