Now, get comfortable and begin to "Breathe deeply as you listen and enjoy this musical journey into the lives of the women who walked and talked with Him in Ancient Days...

Questions to Ponder:

#1 Forgotten Love – Story and Song

As I ponder my relationship with the Lord, do I feel a closeness to Him, now?  Am I yearning for His rightful place in my heart to find a sense of sweet renewal?  What can I do to create a closer connection with Christ in my morning, afternoon or evening meditations by incorporating more scripture study, meaningful prayer and reminiscing upon the joyful experiences I have had in the past or present by “Coming Unto Christ”?

 

#2 Dust From the Divine – Story and Song

How can I become more childlike in my relationship with the Savior? What gift can I visualize the Savior giving to my little child-like self ; the child of God within my soul , to remind me of His perfect, pure and precious love for me? If the Savior could whisper words of comfort to my heart now, what words can I imagine Him whispering to me now?

 

#3 One Perfect Heart – Am I more like Mary or Martha in the New Testament?  Do I feel the need to busy myself without accepting the gift of respite at the Savior’s feet?  How can I create a meaningful space and time in my life each morning, noon or night - in which to experience more personal one-on-one time with His Spirit?

 

#4 The Pearl of Perfection – What is Mary of Bethany’s message which I feel directed towards through her story and song as I listen today?  How am I like Mary of Bethany?  How would I like to become more like her?

 

#5 The Widow’s Might – How can I give my heart, my mind, my “might” to the Savior; even as the widow in the New Testament gave her very last “mite” to Him?  In what ways am I spiritually wealthy?  Do I feel emotionally wealthy in simply knowing that the Lord loves me with His heart, might, mind and strength? 

#6 The Simple Truth -  How has my life changed (or how would I like my life to change for the better) by knowing how deeply loved I am by the Savior Jesus Christ?  If I truly believe that the Savior knows my heart, sees my hidden wounds and knows the secrets of my very own soul; how can that help me to gain renewed hope in my personal life?  Is there anyway in my own personal life that I need extra strength through the atonement of Jesus Christ right now?   What burden am I willing to drop at His feet so that I can “bear a song away”today?

#7 – The Prince of Peace – As I listen to this testament of divine friendship that Mary of Magdala had for the Savior, I can ponder the following thoughts and write my own feelings down.   How am I willing to stand as a witness for Christ when other’s turn away from Him?  How can I share my personal witness of Him with those who may be doubting His reality? 

 

#8 – Precious in His Sight – Have I ever experienced a mighty change of heart in my life by experiencing the Savior’s pure love for me?  Although I may have made mistakes in my past, am I willing to show greater love for Him today?   Do I have a personal conviction that the Savior’s love for me is flawless, unchanging, perfect and enduring now and forever? Am I willing to continuously feel His welcoming arms open and ready to receive me?  Am I doing anything to push away His perfect love for me now?

 

#9 Water into Wine – What miracles have I seen in my life that I know are directly related to my relationship with the Savior Jesus Christ?  In what areas of my life do I stand ready to co-create miracles with Him according to my faith in Him? What weakness(es) do I have that I would like Him to turn into strengths for me as I continuously seek to drop my burden at His feet?
