Stewardship Challenge Week 14: Godly Women Part 2

Godly Women- Part 2
“Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.”
2 Peter 3:4

Since May is Mother’s Day, for the next few weeks I would like to look at Godly women and their role in the family as well as the Body of Christ.

A Godly woman is not perfect, rather she is learning to open up and trust her Savior. The measuring stick of your godliness isn’t based on a comparison to other women, but on your own personal commitment to Jesus Christ. So, what are the characteristics of a godly woman? Let’s look at a few more this week~~

• Serve the Lord: Set your mind on eternal things, serve the Lord and others. She opens her mouth in wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. Proverbs 31:8-9
• Have an intimate familiarity with the Word: “Man shall not live on bread alone, but every word that comes from the mouth of God.”  Matthew 4:4
• Resonate a calm and quiet spirit: As a godly woman you have the inner peace of the Holy Spirit to comfort, guide and teach you when everything seems out of control. Scripture above
• Be grounded in courage and strength: You will refuse to let fear invade your thoughts or feelings by constantly reminding yourself of God’s promises to never leave you. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

Do you have other godly women in your life?  Learn to cultivate a relationship with other godly women. Have at least one accountability woman in your life, someone you trust that you can share your feeling with and who loves you enough to be honest with you.  Someone you can call at a moment’s notice to pray with you. I pray that you will always know how much God loves you and the faith that He has in your ability to walk in all that He has for you.
