Megan D 1. Today we focused on dealing with issues among friend and learning about who influences our our past. 2. I think every day we change and grow into being a different person, we can hide who we are to fit in, or we can accept who we are and become a better person. Every moment in my past has hurt/helped/encouraged/shifted me toward being who i am today. Its not painful to look back as long as the past is accepted and I have forgiven those whom i think have wronged me. 3. We really concentrated on focusing on who comes in and out of my life. Someone that I may barely pay attention to could really change my life. I also want to make sure that I'm aware of people because I could be that someone who makes a difference and I want to be able to recognize it.
Allison B. 1. Today we shared with each other how God has used our circumstances in the past to shape who we are in a positive way. 2. My past has changed who I am today greatly. It's exciting for me to look at the past because I can always see how God used specific situations and struggles to build me into the person I am today. 3. We talked a little about leadership development today and how God can use our leadership positions to shape and mold us.
We discussed how sometime negativity can get us down but we have to realize that God is in control and sees the big picture. Also how certain people and circumstances have affected our lives and made us who we are today.
2.My past has brought me to the realization that I am beautifully and wonderfully made despite what current "culture" tells me. I have had many struggles and negative experiences but they have shaped who I am today. They certianly weren't easy to understand at the time but looking back I see that it has only made me into the person God created me to be. It truely amazes me how God can take the "ugly" situations in our lives and make them so beautiful.
3.We talked about understanding my strengths and weaknesses.
1. We talked about issues that were going on in my life and how they were affecting my spiritual soundness and my daily life. We discussed how even though there is so much going on that His grace is sufficient for me.
2. It is not hard to look into my past. I try not to regret because I have learned from my experiences and they have gotten me where I am now. My past has shown the pattern that I tend to put a lot of hope and faith in people and I want to get away from that and fully put my hope and faith in Christ.
3. We discussed how to not much so much trust in people and relationships.
1. I learned how to be open with my mentor and share what was going on in my life.
2. Both me and my mentor agreed that my past makes me who I am today. And that the trials that I faced along with choices and decisions shaped me to become stronger and to help those that I may mentor one day. It is hard to look into my past, but I'm learning that without the expericences that I had, I wouldn't be me.
1. We really talked about God's love for us no matter what.
2. My past of course has shaped who I am, I could not be who I am today with out going through it. I am very glad to be who I am today, when I look back it hurts sometimes because I was not a good person in alot of ways for a long time but looking back reminds me of how I got to be who I am today and I like this person alot.I am just glad that I learned from my mistakes and moved on dwelling on the past forever does not do one any good.
3. We talked about some of our weaknesses and strengths.
(Jennifer H.) 1) We talked about some past experiences which was good to see some of where she is coming from and just to get to know each other more.
2) I think that my past has made me a stronger and better person. The experiences that I have been through have shaped who I am and have helped me to look toward God for help. Some days it is painful for me too look back but I know everything has happened for a reason and I want to use my life to help other people.
3) We talked about my quiet time and we are doing the same thing so we can talk about it.
(Peter) 1. Today it was really good to reflect back on some very meaningful experiences that I have had in my life and to put all of them in a greater perspective.
2. I think the past experiences God has given me have shaped me into a strong confident person that relies on my faith in time of need. Also as I look back I see clearly how God has always placed the right people at the right time in my life to provide the exact support I needed. Its not hard for me to look back at the past since God has always been faithful and brought me out of my valleys.
3. We talked alot about where we have been in life and the people that God strategically put in our lives to help us through times of need and uncertainty. God always has a plan.
We met and talked about how things had been going in my week.
I realize that all the hardships I have been through have been or are being used to make me better suited for whatever it is he will call me to do in my life
We discussed how we would go about achieving the goals in the learning covenant we made
1. Today we focused on my past and how it has affected me both in my spiritual life and my actual one.
2. My past has helped me grow in the following areas: leadership, morals, not being selfish, learning how to treat others, and coming into my own. Our session today was very emotional because of some of the things that have happened in my past, including deaths and other situations that I have been wronged.
3. We focused on really getting over the past and forgiving the people who have wronged me. We focused on seeing how it has affected me positively and how I can use all of these experiences for the better. I know that all of these experiences have made me who I am today and how I treat people so I do not allow myself to repeat how I was treated.
