Today's Encouragement (12 July 2023)


Greetings sisters!

How are you on this brand new day the Lord gave us?! 

I hope you also, as well as me here, are desiring to love Him more and more every day and growing in our understanding and obedience to Him every second. 

He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.

1 John 2:4-5

 

 Thank you sisters for sharing these... 




Amen let's not get swept away in things that don't really matter. Of course it's good to be diligent workers and do our Titus 2 keeper at home type works well but not get distracted by them or obsessed with them to the point of taking us away from reading/studying His Word, prayer, edifying saints, taking the gospel to the lost etc. It's a balance isn't it sisters and we examine ourselves to make sure we aren't too focused down here and getting everything just right. Sort of goes along with this scripture too... 


Many women have treasures in their homes and collect all these things and antiques or wanting everything to be 'just right' and perfect and can get mad or so sad when something is damaged, destroyed, stolen, or lost etc. But we want to remember that everything we have is the Lord's and not to hold too closely to anything and be ready to let them all go if God allows them to be. We know we are to be content with food and raiment but we sure have so much beyond that don't we and all these conveniences to help us in our duties. A simple life in Christ is awesome and I know sisters who know that and rejoice in it too, knowing our home is not down here but above!


I'm back with the next scripture reading... 


Hope that edifies you in the perfect ways of the Lord we are to live by! 


Delicate winter bulb flowers... 


How amazing they are and all His creations He made! All are without excuse for not believing in this great Creator! 


Beautiful kitchen window evening view... 


And my day is almost done. One more closer to eternity. Let's all redeem the time as best we can and guard our lives and keep them free from distractions as best we can and anything that will take us away from the Lord. Let's keep abhoring that which is evil and cleaving to the good! 

Hold fast sisters! 


Love in Christ, 

Sister Chayil
