For our first meeting we discussed the many things a small group needs to discuss. Like picking a cool name for the group, when to meet and what to talk about. Our first adventure involved a meet and greet of all the members and a discussion on a classic verse, Jeremiah 29:11.
The verse is certainly a money maker and who knows, you may own something with the verse printed on it. But anyway, we talked about what we felt the verse was saying to us and how we could try and apply that to our lives. There was some discussion on "our plans" vs. "God's plans" and how often not we can confuse those plans and very well mistake "our plans" as God's.
Paul was brought up (also known as Saul) and we struggled with thoughts like; Was Paul doing God's plan when he was Saul? And why Paul, why not going from Saul to Bruce? (Well, we didn't discuss that but it makes me wonder.)
As we discussed some of our possible future professions the question of, "How do we know if we're doing God's plan?" came up. Many great thinkers have pondered this question so why not us!
Here were some things that were mentioned.
1. Pray
2. Read the bible
3. Faith
So there you have it, the first meeting of Gravity. And of course we closed in a word of prayer.
