Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. --KJV
The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” --NIV
And the LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a companion who will help him." --NLT
And then there was woman. . .
I am reading an intense book called Help Meet and to say the least you have to have an open heart and a commitment to live like it says in the Bible to read this book and not throw it in a fire. A few years ago I would have burned it!!!
Anyway, it is totally making me a better wife!!!! and if you know me I am always trying to get better at everything I do. . .So this is a great book!
I just got done reading about Chaste(pure)--pure in thought, word, and act, and to be modest and honorable in all things. . .all things. . . all things . . .yes that is what I said . . .all things. . .as it reads in the Bible. . .
Titus 2:3-5 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. --NIV
The aged women likewise, that [they be] in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, [To be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. --KJV
These are not easy things in the world we live in today. . .Let me just say that I am work in progress and that I trust that God loves me regardless of my struggle to be all these things!
I am going to bed--sweet dreams--momma
