Proverbs 31 The Message
A good woman is hard to find, and worth far more than diamonds.... When she speaks she has something worthwhile to say, and she always says it kindly. She keeps an eye on everyone in her household, and keeps them all busy and productive. Her children respect and bless her; her husband joins in with words of praise: “Many women have done wonderful things, but you’ve outclassed them all!”
Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades. The woman to be admired and praised is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God. Give her everything she deserves! Adorn her life with praises!
Sunday, May 10th - Gospel Project Sunday School

Ladies, it's May, which means it's time for the next opportunities for women's times!
As a reminder, we're meeting in smaller groups this spring to listen to and discuss a podcast about the how one of the names used for God, El-Shaddai, teaches us about His character as our all sufficient God.

The initiative of the saint is not towards self-realization, but towards knowing Jesus Christ. The spiritual saint never believes circumstances to be haphazard, or thinks of his life as secular and sacred; he sees everything he is dumped down in as the means of securing the knowledge of Jesus Christ. There is a reckless abandonment about him.
The Holy Spirit is determined that we shall realize Jesus Christ in every domain of life, and He will bring us back to the same point again and again until we do.... Whether it be eating or drinking or washing disciples feet, whatever it is, we have to take the initiative of realizing Jesus Christ in it.... Our Lord realized His relationship to the Father even in the most menial work. "Jesus knowing... that He was come from God, and went to God.... took a towel and began to wash the disciples feet."
Taken from My Utmost for His Highest

What do Winnie the Pooh, John the Baptist, and Attila the Hun have in common?
The same middle name.
I once had a racing snail. I took his shell off to see if he could go faster.
But... it made him more sluggish.
