Being Subject to Their Own Husbands

I have not posted since we left for vacation so I let us review Titus 2:3,4,5 we know so far. If you are just joining us the you can see the other pictures here

Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, 

not malicious gossips 

nor enslaved to much wine, 

teaching what is good, 

so that they may encourage the young women 

to love their husbands, 

to love their children,  

to be sensible, 

pure, 

workers at home, 

kind, 

To day we add "being subject to their own husbands,". I start with a picture of a bee (sometimes it stings to be subject to our own husbands) and add ing. 

This text book labeled subject 2 reminds us that in order to be subject to our own husbands we need to be a student of our husbands so that we may act in a manner consistent with their desires. We also study God's Word so we can act in a matter consistent with God's desires.

Being subject to their own husbands,

In order to remember "their own" I found this beautiful picture by Valarian Warrior of a roan horse which we are labeling "The Roan". "The Roan" sounds like their own.

L

Roan is a color created by an even mixture of colored and white hairs on the body of an animal.  We are using "The Roan" horse to remember the words “their own”. Can you remember "The Roan”?

Being subject to their own husbands, 

Mentally place a picture of your own husband here. Those who don't have a husband picture the qualities that make a good husband. 

Congratulations one more phrase and we are finished!

Service with a Smile

So many times I perform my daily tasks with a grimace or a sigh. That’s because I forget whom I serve.  I am not merely serving those around me- who may or may not appreciate, or even notice, what I’m doing.  

Colossians 3:23-24 tells me where my focus should be:  “And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.”  


So look past those around you and see the Lord Himself.  Do your service for Him.  He notices and He appreciates all that is done for Him.  He assures us that “…whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to     Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.” (Mark 9:41)  

What a kind and loving God we serve.

Look at His face and catch His smile as you serve Him with a right heart attitude.  

Reflect that in your own countenance. 

We really do serve the best of masters!  

"They looked to Him and were radiant, 

and their faces were not ashamed."

(Psalm 34:5)
