Hello sisters,
I'm back here with some simple edification for your day in the Lord.
We all have a variety of things to do each day between the times of rest the Lord blesses us with. And we each need to work out what the most important things are and do them and not worry that we can't get to all we might want to.
A sister was sharing today about how all we ever do what we should for the Lord and obeying Him is only our reasonable service. If we do all He commands of us that is only our duty and nothing more. If we do less well then we are disobedient servants and that is not a good thing.
Here's a scripture...
So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.
Luke 17:10
That's very encouraging actually not only to us in helping us to know what is required of us and then for those who seem to think we are somehow going beyond what we should be in what we do.
And I share just a few pictures from my day...with little explanation as sometimes a picture says more than words.
Here's some potato blessings that survived the frost I wrote about earlier...
Hungry mouths to feed...
Praise God for providing good things for us women to do each day.
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Philippians 4:8
And it all fits in with what is appropriate to a life lived after Christ.
One thing I do love doing each day is communicating with a couple of you sisters. What a blessing to know of those who truly love the Lord and want to obey Him in everything. Let us keep encouraging one another through all things for God's glory as we know godly love among His people is to be very great indeed.
And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
1 Peter 4:8-9
Thank you sister for the picture gifts to share here. It is always a great combination of scripture and creation and the sisterly love behind the sharing of them. Praise God for all good things!
Praise God for sending His Son into this wicked world. What a great gift...so let us follow after Him sisters!
I love that too! How encouraging to know others are standing fast in the Lord and His truth!
May your day go well sister saints. Let's remember what it means to be 'saints'. What a holy God we serve...so let us be striving to be blameless and holy women of God using wisdom in all our decisions and actions. We love Him who first loved us...and we know to love Him is to keep His commands. So let us keep going and doing that, not growing weary in well doing.
Until tomorrow Lord willing sisters...you stand fast in Him!
Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
Philippians 4:1
Love in Christ,
Sister Michaela
