Hi everyone, I hope this month finds you doing well
and
strong in Gods grace and presence. This month we are going
to focus
on finding out what God expects from us as godly
women.
Selected Text:
*She looks well to the ways of her household and does not
eat the bread of idleness. Proverbs 31:27
I have taken a few of the words in this scripture and done
a word study. That word study is going to be the basis for
the text I have written for
us this month.
The following words are defined and researched from The
Strongs Concordance:
1.Well = health, complete
2.Ways = path, company
3. Household = family, guests, ( anyone under your roof )
4. Bread = food
5. Idleness = laziness, slothfulness
* The following paragraphs are paraphrased with the new
definitions.
1.She focuses her eyes toward the health of her family and
to the path
her family takes. And does not give in to
inactivity.
2. She observes completely the company her family keeps and
does not give
into slothfullness.
With those new definitions in mind, I hope you will be able
to understand
just what it is God expects from us as women.
Lets get on with the rest
of the story.
<(((> Can you be the Women God expects you to be? <(((>
I have been a spouse and parent for over 25 years and even
after all those
years, I have found there isn't any one
specific way to keep your house
in order. However, if we
can pull God's word into our daily life, we can
live
a little more in the center of God's will for our lives.
The image of today's woman exemplifies strength,
independence and is very
capable of doing what is necessary
to meet the needs of everyone who resides
under her roof.
Sometimes I am very proud of just how much a woman is
capable of and other times I wish life could be a little
less busy.
We have so many different areas in our lives that we pay
attention to
and with the constant business of keeping up
with everyone's activities
can lead to much stress and
pressure for most of God's women who are trying
to do
what is right.
It's hard to know what is to much involvement and what is
not enough. Both
instances can either be the strength or
the breaking point in our family
unit.
Proverbs 31 shoes Godly women who are involved in the
business world as
well as one who gets involved with her
family. If you decide to hold down
a job, you can't let your
family suffer - you still have to maintain the
completeness
of being who God wants you to be.
First and foremost, you
have to take care of you before you can take care of
everyone else, If
you are out of shape mentally, physically
or spiritually, that would be
the first step you need to
take. I have spent all this time taking care
of everyone
else and this year my body is paying me back tenfold. I've
had more health problems than ever before. So ladies take
a little time
out to get your self built up.
Maybe you don't have any kids or a significant other. You
still need to
know what God's idea of a perfect woman is.
You will still have people
in your life
who need cared for.
Laziness is without a doubt totally unacceptable and if you
give into
that, your making a big mistake. I can tell
you without hesitation
that it will affect your life and
everyone around you negatively.
Go back and take a look at the two paraphrased paragraphs
and ask yourself
what it is that you need to do to meet the
requirements, so you can be
called a godly woman.
One concentrates on the physical well being in your
family. Are you lacking
in this area? If you are, just
remember that your family is depending on
you to help them
through their lives and that never really changes, Even
when they grow up, you are still mom. You have a
responsibility to provide
the right foods and health care,
so they can start on the journey of successful
living.
The other concentrates on what plan your kids have for
their lives and
with the company they keep. Your kids are
screaming out for the correct
type of discipline and order
in their lives. They make sulk around a little
bit but deep
inside they will appreciate just what it is you are trying
to help them with.
There is so much that you have to do as a women in the
family unit that
I know without a doubt that you can't do it
without God's presence and peace.
You have to have His strength to carry you on from one
activity to another.
I have always found that if I get up a little earlier than
everyone else, use that time to wake up and plan my
day, and of course for my
quiet time with the Lord, that
everything seems to go a little easier.
If you don't spend
time with the Lord first off and don't take a little time
out
for yourself, you will undoubtably not be at your best.
So this month I want to ask all of you to start building
yourself up and
start working on a plan on how you can be
all you can be. Proverbs 31
tells us that being the woman
in the family is complicated and time restricting.
But I
know that each and everyone of you are capable of all of
this.
With Christ, you can do all things. There is nothing
that you are not
capable of doing correctly.
Til Next Time.
