Greetings sisters!
I hope all is well with each of you and that wherever you are on this earth you are standing strong in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, shining your lights!
He is worthy of all praise and honour and glory! He is worthy of our life given up for Him to do His will and not our own. He has been so good to us to send a Saviour to save us from our sins which were leading us to death (and of course still do if we live in them wilfully).
A lot of weeds to pull!
Skirts dragging in the dirt...but that's just fine as we have washing machines (or at least plenty of water to wash with) and extra clean clothes to change into if needed. We are blessed. Sometimes I think of all the people out there who don't have the luxuries/blessings that we do if I'm concerned about being dirty or something like that.
Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
Revelation 5:12
Next scripture reading to edify us sisters...
And it's one we sisters definitely should know well. Well it's one specifically for us isn't it speaking of the headship order from creation. And we submit to that order and headcovering is an outward sign of this. So many rebel and say things have changed today and that women and men are equal...but from the beginning of creation it wasn't so! We do know we are all one in Christ but yet we are created different and nothing but resurrected glorified bodies will change that when we are like the angels of God. Let us godly sisters submit to our roles and rejoice to be who God created us to be!
Good dry day for working in the garden again...
A lot of weeds to pull!
Reality of working in the garden...
Was gleaning under-ripe pumpkins from the dead vines amongst the tall weeds too...
Still like finding treasures as they still can be used!
Well I guess that's all from me today. Hopefully it was edifying and encouraging somehow. The Lord's Word is good! Hold fast sisters and be of good cheer!
Reminding me of how God provided for the poor by commanding the people in the harvest time to leave some for them.
And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest.And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the Lord your God.Leviticus 19:9-10
And today we also know we are to be ready to help the truly needy though in our extravagant cultures those are rare. Or people are poor because of sinful habits and bad life choices and decisions so it can be hard to know sometimes. We know we are to be content with food and raiment.
My day is over...
...with pretty colours God created. Always much to see of what He made on this earth even though man has made a lot of bad things and spoiled some of it. God still reigns and He will set it right one day sisters!
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
