“Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.”
Titus 2:3-5

A chat with God

by proverbs 31 woman!

An excerpt from my journal dated 17 June 2004........

me: “Dear Lord, living a life of faith must be tough! How much faith is required?”

Him: “Just plain obedience.”

me: "Wow, Lord, that simple? How about a faith that can move mountains? Now, that’s a lot of faith!”

Him: “Not really, just plain obedience. Start by obeying simple, small truths. That’s all.”

me: "What else, God?"

Him: “Trust Me.”

me: "Trust and total surrender, even if I have to do it 50 times a day?”

Him: "Yes, even more than 50 times a day, if needed, my child. It’s trusting one breath at a time.”

me: "Lord, I trust you but I’m wiped out! …. just as David in the Scriptures said."

Him: “My grace is sufficient for you.”

me: “.... so that's Faith ....So be it, Lord. Amen.”
