Women of the Word

Today I'm praising God for the precious women He has placed in my life. It is during the many seasons of my walk with the Lord that they have given me such Godly wisdom. Reading God's word is very important but he also uses those people He has placed in our lives to lead, teach, and guide us in the smallest of life's situations.
So many times when I've been discouraged, tempted, and headed- in -the- wrong-direction, the door of FRIENDSHIP has opened with one of these precious women standing there to guide me through.
I only hope and pray that the Lord will often look down and see that He can use me to help others in a special way that only He can see. Many times we can't see how we have been any help to others but God knows our strengths better than we do. Now that my children are not so "little" any more I have more of an opportunity to reach out to others help.
My desire is to use God's precious Word as a guide for each and every day in all that I do. In order to put this into practice I must pray and ask my heavenly father for that strength and help each day.
Thank you Lord for all the special "Women of the Word" you have placed in my life!!
God is so Good!!

1 Peter 2:1-3

"Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking, as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious."

A gentle and quiet spirit

This week has already been very busy and so I really needed to take time this week to begin my day in prayer and meditating on God's Word more than ever!.

1 Peter 3:4 -rather, let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

As a Christian woman I should strive to have an attitude that is not demanding and harsh, but soothing and tranquil.

Father, help me focus more on inner beauty, which will not decay, and less on outer beauty such as makeup, jewelery, and clothes.


But there is a kind of beauty that will never fade, that is precious in the sight of God, And, amazingly, those beauty secrets are found in the letters of John. John tells us how to grow in beauty, so that one day "we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming." (1 John 2:28 NKJV).
