The Home Photo Challenge was fun for me last year. Since I do not think much is going to be changing for me in the way of travel this year, I am going to continue the challenge for myself into 2021. This year I am going to add a little twist. I will give a brief description of each photo I take and write a Haiku to go along with it.

Yesterday was a very busy DLT day. If you don’t know what a DLT day is you can discover it by clicking HERE.
Our church has entered day 4 of it season of fasting and prayer. God has given us a very concrete direction for prayer. This week we are focusing on:
DAY 1- KNOWING JESUS AND MAKING HIM KNOWN
DAY 2- DOING LIFE TOGETHER
DAY 3- REACHING THE LOST
DAY 4- SENDING THE FOUND
DAY 5- DISCOVERING OUR GIFTS
DAY 6- CHANGING THE WORLD
Here is yesterday’s video post on Reaching the Lost.
What the Lord has shown us is that Reaching the lost in our community is going to be done through Doing Life Together with people who have not yet made a connection with Jesus. That is: breaking bread together, sharing Scripture with, praying with, and mutually meeting needs with folks who have not yet made a decision to trust Jesus Christ as God.

It is time once again for SHARE YOUR WORLD. This is the weekly challenge where Melanie, from Sparks From A Combustible Mind , asks us several questions and in answering them we all share our worlds. You can read other contributors and or join the challenge by clicking the underlined link above….and now on to the questions!
QUESTIONS:
What should you get rid off, that would make your new year better, and why? (Don’t say Covid-19, we all want to get rid of the dang virus) I snagged this question from another blogger, but failed to note who thought it up. My apologies! I KNOW better than to trust my memory any more. If it’s your question and you’d like credit, please let me know! Great question too, in my opinion!
I am getting rid of some flubber around my midsection. That will help me have a more energetic year for sure!!!!
Tell everyone something that you found personally lifted your spirits!
Aside from the most obvious answers for me which are prayer, worship and reading the Bible, I have found that eating cookies while doing any of these activities personally lifts my spirits….of course it does nothing whatsoever for my flubbery midsection.
This is Day number 2 of our 2021 21 Days of fasting and prayer. Today’s prayer focus is DLT (Doing Life Together) groups.
Here are some things I know about DLT Groups-
A DLT group may not be a traditional group- While we call these types of relationships groups the truth is they may not be groups in the traditional sense of the word at all. The important prat of Doing Life Together is DOING LIFE TOGETHER in whatever way the Lord creates that scenario. The important part of doing life together is in following the Acts 2:42 model: Breaking of Bread, biblical teaching, prayer and providing for each others’ needs. How that happens is secondary.
IT MAY BE FOUND IN A TRADITIONAL BIBLE STUDY SETTING.
IT MIGHT BE FOUND IN ON-LINE CONNECTION
IT MIGHT BE FOUND IN SEVERAL ONE TO ONE CONNECTIONS
2. DLT groups are initiated by God and then chosen by man.- The people in your DLT group will show up as you pray for them. They may not be connections you would obviously choose and they may not even be with people you normally associate with. Right now God has directed me to a DLT group that is based around individual meetings and on line connections. One is a friend I have made over the years who is currently living in seclusion because of the pandemic. I check in with him and his wife weekly on line. Another in my DLT group is an elderly lady in our church I take out to do grocery shopping every other week. A third person in DLT group is the treasurer of our church who I meet with once a month for coffee. None of us are meeting in one group ever but we are all connected by the four aspects of Doing Life Together.
3. DLT groups don’t become DLT groups naturally– The DLT lifestyle (breaking bread together, biblical teaching, prayer and mutual provision of needs) needs to be intentionally integrated into relationships that would otherwise simply be acquaintances.
tell me what God is showing you about DLT groups or relationships as you pray today.
