Good Morning Family;
Phil. 1:3 says " I thank God upon every remembrance of you" and indeed I do thank God for all of you, because you all have made an impact on my life. In all of you, there is a God given inner source of strength; Ps. 27:1 says ....The Lord is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? You all have strengths in different areas, and that's what makes you unique. I want to encourage and challenge you this week. Prov. 31:10 says; Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. I looked up synonyms for virtuous: blameless, clean-living, exemplary, faithful, guiltless, honest, honorable. Initially, I thought it was enough that my husband thought me, a virtuous woman, and although that a good place to start, that's not enough. It is more important for God to think of me as a virtuous woman. And guess what? That's my challenge; For God to say 'well done, my good and virtuous woman' . That is the greatest honor, I think. So, here goes: This month and for the balance of year, let us make the committment, let us vow to: 1. Spend quality time with the Lord every morning. We need to start our day with Him, because He sets the standard!!! 2. Let us work on one (yes just one, out of the million, lol) bad habit, that God brings to mind. 3. Work on cementing a godly habit 4.Take some time off everyday just for you (no less than 10 minutes) {take a nap, read a pleasure book, paint your fingernails, call a friend} 5. Practice talking to God throughout the day (you SHALL enjoy His company) Let us work on these everyday, and watch God at work in our lives!!

For His Glory,
Brenda
