I can’t believe the final week of Summer Bible study is here. It went by fast didn’t it? This week’s post is aimed at reflecting on the eternal legacy left by Leah and how God is calling each of us to participate in His bigger story too. Although you won’t find the typical two or three points that were a trademark in the first six videos, you will find several Scripture verses and a direct application to your life.
Please consider leaving a comment below and sharing the one thing you will take away from our study in the life of Leah. I was so thrilled to see the community that formed in the comments section over the past few weeks. You girls didn’t only encourage one another, you also encouraged me as well.
Thank you for spending the past seven Tuesdays with me. I have truly enjoyed it.

Thank you so much for doing this Shannon.
All together, I think that the thing I learned about and will treasure most is that I will NEVER be alone. He will always be with me, He will help me stand when I fall. And that little me will play a role in his plan.
Thanks again.
Shannon, I’m so sad this study will be over..even though you’ve promised we can all keep coming back. (And I’m counting on everyone else being on here too!)
I think what this study has done for me most is show me how terribly self-centered I am. Ugh. It is very painful to come face to face with the ugliest part of you. I am so disgusted. BUT the other thing I am taking away with me is the FACT that God uses terribly flawed people as a way to show His beauty. It really shows craftmanship for a “crafter” to take a flawed piece of work and turn it into a thing of beauty. It shows the skill of the crafter, NOT of the piece!!! I need to remember that. I have such a terrible time focusing on God instead of this life. That’s one reason I love Colossians 3, esp. verses 1-3.
Shannon, coming today was a bit sad for me because I was thinking “It’s over! Oh, no!” But then I listened to the video and remembered all that I had been learning by studying the book and God whispered to my heart, “Oh, no, it’s only just begun!”
I can’t wait to see what great and grand things God does through all of us as a result of this study. I pray everyone will continue growing closer to Jesus and knowing Him more!! I have so enjoyed the fellowship with everyone over the last weeks!
The line in the sand for me is so clear. Before this Bible study I was struggling hugely with my insecurities and feelings of inferiority. By studyinig the life of Leah and realizing that God loved her in spite of all her faults and failures, I recognized that God loves me too. And that has been truly an amazing thing to know!! I have stopped competing for other’s true love and learned to rest in God’s true love (really, the only true love there is). I’m not completely recovered yet from being a first runner-up, but I’m on my way by the grace of God. Plus I’m excited about what the future holds and how my great BIG God is going to use little ol’ me. By the way, I plan on looking that book up!
Thank you oh so much for it all, Shannon and everyone!! I’ve been so blessed!
I’ve learned two big things through this study:
1. The importance of asking God to be my portion.
2. No matter how much rejection we go through or what anyone does to us NOTHING can thwart God’s plan for our lives…even if it takes a long time. Life is a blink to him.
It seems like I’ve done nothing but wait for many years now and I have been reassuring myself lately that God has a plan and a time for everything.
