Falling Down in Life is Inevitable, Getting up & Living in Freedom is Optional
If your 1^st reaction to hearing about the fall from graces of an acquaintance is “Wow, thank God I’m not that messed up”, you’re not alone. Its human nature to compare sins & look for someone who we feel has done more “wrong” than we have. Makes us feel a little better about ourselves…. We may think … we’re not so bad after all.


It is wonderful to see Christian sisters who don’t wag their tongues and act outraged & appalled when hearing about another sister stumbling. They instead offer encouragement & compassion, rolling up their sleeves & wading into the muck to meet them at their low point.



Imagine if Jesus had looked down on us sinful, prideful people and said, nah… I don’t feel like getting involved in their mess. Instead, He lovingly & willingly left His throne and stepped right down into our world. I kind of liken it to someone telling me to go release those pigs from their pen. In order to do so, I have to wade into a pig pen in all of its mess & stink, knowing that the pigs may or may not welcome & accept me. In fact, they might even attack me… say what… Don’t they know I came to help set them free??



If you are the person who has fallen short of the mark, take heart. Jesus loves you.
Life might knock you down, but keep on getting up.




He has removed your sins as far as the East is from the West.
Psalm 103:12


We all are capable of making poor choices. Through these choices we learn & grow. They are also opportunities for those who have been through this to encourage and love on those going through it now. Offer them Hope. Share how you were able to overcome and show them the Freedom you have gained by receiving Jesus’ gift of forgiveness.

With the arrival of Jesus, the Messiah, that fateful dilemma is resolved. Those who enter into Christ's being-here-for-us no longer have to live under a continuous, low-lying black cloud. A new power is in operation. The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind, has magnificentlycleared the air, freeing you from a fated lifetime of brutal tyranny at the hands of sin and death.
Romans 8:1-2 The Message


Are you the type of friend that draws closer to someone in need rather than recoil at the sin & confessions of personal struggles? Is there a sister out there that could use your encouragement, wisdom & love to enable herself to be set free?

With this being 4^th of July weekend, what a perfect time to be thankful for all of the freedoms we have been given. Many of these freedoms are the result of others’ sacrifice.

Proverbs 31 Wife ~House hold tips.

Here's some Household tips

from Proverbs 31

Prov31:15

She gets up while it is still dark

and provides food for her family and portions for her servants.

(make a little basket of muffins for a neighbor or some one in need )

 

Yogurt-Bran Muffins

1 cup Fiber One® original bran cereal

2 egg whites or 1 egg, slightly beaten

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 containers (6 oz each) Yoplait® Original 99% Fat Free French vanilla yogurt

1 1/2 cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour

1/3 cup packed brown sugar

1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup fresh raspberries or blueberries

1. Heat oven to 400°F.

Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups, or grease bottom of each muffin cup with shortening. Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and crush with rolling pin or meat mallet (or crush in food processor).

2. In medium bowl, stir together egg whites, oil and yogurt. Add cereal, flour, brown sugar, baking soda and salt; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Gently stir in berries. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.

Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from pan

Proverbs 31:17

She sets about her work vigorously,

her arms are strong for her task.

Cleaning Tip: 

Removing mildew from shower or bath:

3 parts bleach and 1 part water --

put in spray bottle.

Spray on mildew areas and it will

virtually disappear.

Proverbs 31:20

She opens her arms to the poor

and extends her hand to the needy..

Make a care package for the homeless

• crackers /snack

• bottled water

• wet wipes

• socks/gloves (you can pickup at the dollar store)

• toothbrush and toothpaste

• note and bible verse of hope

Proverbs 31:26

She speaks with wisdom and

faithful instruction is on her tongue.

As mothers it is our  responsibility to teach our children to pray, to show them a personal relationship with the Lord.

Let them know that they can call on Jesus on little or big things and to praise him for all things.. For he loves us.

Proverbs 31:27

She watches over the affairs of her household

and does not eat the bread of idleness.

Ladies ,

we must be woman of carefully chosen words.

If you are like me, there is enough going on in my own home for me to keep trace of, that I don't need to gossip or judge about anyone else's life.

If you have  concerns about someone ~Pray for them !

(Do not judge , or you too will be judged. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brothers eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?) Mathew 7:1-3

Proverbs 31:30

Charm is deceptive,

and beauty is fleeting

but a woman who fears the Lord

is to be praised..

Ladie's,

You are God's beautiful creation.

Inside and Out.

Pray for your family.

For your spouse, children,

grandchildren, great grandchildren.

Be the woman who does not cease praying

for your loved one.

Do not grow weary in doing good,

for in due season we shall reap a harvest

Galatians 6:9

I long to be that woman of God who someone refer to me as by saying

"she never stopped praying for me

and that is why I am her today"!
