We can become 'safe' people for others to take out their thoughts, look at them from different perspectives and then put them back, perhaps in a different way. Jesus offered this 'service' to humans constantly by His willingness to "go there," then allowing the human to 'discover' for themselves. An amazingly effective method we would be wise to duplicate.Transforming Togetherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01997685183132646140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216334866778289739.post-90387324460715075402011-01-07T16:57:57.315-07:002011-01-07T16:57:57.315-07:00I am finding that God-centered questions are one o...I am finding that God-centered questions are one of the best ways of developing purposeful conversations.<br />Questions that are sincere-thoughtful and take us back to Him.Vikki de los Santos Mayanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216334866778289739.post-84615367701926384652011-01-05T07:21:40.284-07:002011-01-05T07:21:40.284-07:00Yes, in Christ Himself IS hidden ALL the treasure ...Yes, in Christ Himself IS hidden ALL the treasure of WISDOM and knowledge...and the Gospels are where we see Christ, and that wisdom and knowledge IN ACTION!

My first "aha moment", through your post is connected with Colossians 2:3- "In Christ Himself is hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." He is the One who can teach us how to have these God-centered conversations! He showed us perfectly how to have conversations with full of purpose. <br />Now-to get practical! Ladies, I am looking forward to hearing what concreate steps God will lead you to share and what insights God will share with me. appreciate you, Ele!Vikki De Los Santos Mayanoreply@blogger.com
