The woman I desire to be

Chaste conversation coupled with fear (1 Peter 2:3)
Her mouth with wisdom holds the key
To the secret of the greatest commandments (Matt 22:37-39)
Love has made her free (John 8:32)

Her mouth will not allow the enchantments
Of this life below 
To occupy that valuable space
For Christ hath made her whole (John 5:6)

The "fighting for her rights,"
The "let your voice be heard"
She has heard the devil's tricks many times, (Gen 3:4-5)
She prefers to be washed in The Word (Eph 5:25-27)


1 Peter 2:3
While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. 

Matt 22:37-39
 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 
 This is the first and great commandment. 
 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 

John 8:32
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

John 5:6
When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?

Gen 3:4-5
 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 

Eph 5:25-27
 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 
That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 
That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

  2. Praise the Lord, Sister! Hope our family is well enough to come and see you this Sunday. Oh my, what a struggle with the tongue we have before us. May God bless us with the grace to overcome this battle!
