would you consider?
This matter that has been on my heart for some time now... It has become apparent to me that we as women, who claim truth, have become dismissive of the truth and instead have adopted an attitude of arrogance regarding the word of God, especially, when reinforced at them by a man of God. Many of us are a bit heady and take no correction or accountability… It’s amazing how I know a woman could read this post and still find a way to say “this isnt true about me/us! MEN–” We must remember that submitting unto the truth is not determined by our emotions of how the truth makes us feel, especially when living in willful sin. Submission is just, necessary, Godly, and respectable. When someone speaks to us with a scriptural perspective, we must not reject it because it challenges our opinion, behavior, or mindset. Instead, we must be open to examination and humble ourselves before the Lord. I encourage you to check yourself often to guarantee that you are operating in the spirit of the Lord, the Holy Spirit. We must aim to have solid foundations in our faith, and be willing to submit to the guidance of the Holy Spirit because we absolutely need it. I know that it can be difficult to remain humble and accept correction, but it is necessary for our spiritual growth, our homes and communities. I want us all to grow closer to God and be strong women in His eyes. I hope that you will join me in this effort and challenge yourself to always put truth into perspective… Even if that truth is coming out the mouth of a man… Yikes, I know but put your pride aside, sis.
