Mood this evening 🎄🎉🙌🏻
Mood about ten minutes earlier 🙄😤
•
I was reminded today as I was mailing some packages home that the Lord has the power to change our hearts if we will just humble ourselves and let Him! •
After lugging several gifts and a baby and groceries and a giant box all over the place by myself in the cold wind, I arrived to mail these presents not in the best mood to say the least. •
After standing there a few minutes irritated and annoyed, assuming I would be overcharged, and just wondering how much longer it would take, I started watching the sweet elderly man packaging my boxes for me.
•
Literally, within like two seconds, I felt a weight lifted off me- I wasn’t annoyed or irritated anymore. I was appreciative of his time and effort. I was thankful for the job he was doing for me. I was wishing I had a tip to leave him! To top it off, he carried my packages out to my car for me!
•
When I left, I thanked the Lord for reminding me that HE (not me) has the power to change my heart day in and day out if only I will let Him! •
So my challenge to you this Christmas season when things can get stressful in the hustle and bustle is to let the Lord work in your heart! Choose to release the irritation and anger and let His love and joy fill you instead! 🎄🎄 Quick Bible Study Tip 🎄🤓 If you read a verse or passage that you’re like “uhhh, wait, what?”, try reading it in a few different translations!
•
There are great apps you can use on your phone for this or you can find actual Bibles that have several translations right next to each other!
•
Not only does this make you re-read, but it may clarify questions you had about the wording or meaning of a verse or passage! •
What’s your favorite translation? I love the CSB (Christian Standard Bible), NIV (New International Version), and the NLT (New Living Translation)! In this age of #girlbosses and #mompreneurs and all of the like, Ephesians 5:22 where wives are called to submit to their husbands can be somewhat....not well received. •
Here’s what I’ve learned. In context, that passage is talking about how a Christ-centered home full of the Holy Spirit should look. Husbands are called to love their wives as Christ loves the Church (v25). •
Marriage is then talked about as an example of Christ and His Church who He loved so much He died for (v32)! •
Psalm 40:6-8 & Hebrews 10:5-10 show us that Jesus came to do God’s will! So if Jesus came to do God’s will (not His own) and submitted by sacrificing His life for the Church, then submitting to our husbands is making us more like Christ.
•
Willingly placing ourselves under their authority is showing the world a picture of Christ and the church. And they’re called to love us back. What better way to demonstrate the Gospel to a watching world? •
So married girls, instead of resisting this, embrace the opportunity you have! And single girls, don’t feel like this call is going to cramp your style or steal your independence!
•
After all, we are called to follow, and Jesus showed us the ultimate submission example by coming as a baby to this broken, fallen world so many years ago. The Lord has blessed us with the sweetest gift this Christmas! Baby #2 is due in March! We are so thankful! ❤️🎄👼🏼
•
Now Moms with or who have had 2 under 2, PLEASE give me all your advice!!! Lol 😅 I saw a ton of people posting “10 Year Challenge” photos of 2009-2019 recently with messages of what they wish they could say to themselves back then. •
The only thing I would say to myself in 2009 is: SEEK THE LORD MORE. •
Study the Bible more. Actually listen in church more. Immerse yourself with other believers more. Pray more. Praise more. SEEK THE LORD MORE. •
I know my 2009 self could have used this message, and I can use it today too. I don’t want to look back at 2019 in 2029 and want to say it again! •
And if you need to hear it as well, you’re not alone. My goal for 2020 is really simple... to SEEK THE LORD MORE! Drop an emoji if you’re with me! Quick Bible Study Tip 🖇
•
One thing that has really helped me to grasp themes and overall concepts of what the Bible is ACTUALLY saying versus what I want it to say is reading the ENTIRE book of the Bible I’m studying before going back and breaking down the chapters.
•
Doing this has helped me spot more to break down while re-reading and understand more as I dig deeper chapter by chapter because I have developed a framework/overall picture of the book and have better context!
•
What’s something that helps you in your study?! I would love to know!
