Greetings sisters!
I hope you are stedfastly enduring in the faith.
And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
Mark 3:34-35
Let us ponder the depths of what it means to be in Christ's family. We know it's not just everyone who says they believe in Him. Let us do the will of God. And we know we must be spiritually born into God's family by His Spirit.
In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
1 John 3:10
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
1 John 3:1
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Romans 8:14
Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
2 Corinthians 6:17-18
Pondering how the Lord gives us each different things. Let us be faithful in what the Lord has given us and keep growing!
But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Ephesians 4:7
As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
1 Peter 4:10
For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
Romans 12:3, 6
Pondering light too and how it's so opposite of darkness which hides many things. We know first of all that God sees and knows all people's thoughts and intents and actions, ourselves included of course. God's people operate in the light and expose darkness.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
Ephesians 5:11-13
Some quick video encouragement to keep looking to the joy to come and of our Lord!

(Thank you sister for the picture.) Reminds me how God wants us to willingly seek and obey Him and He doesn't force people.
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Galatians 6:9
Keep pressing onwards sisters and holding fast. Don't grow weary in well doing!
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
