The Word For Wednesday

Revelation 15:3-4

And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,

“Great and amazing are your deeds,
O Lord God the Almighty!
Just and true are your ways,
O King of the nations!
Who will not fear, O Lord,
and glorify your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations will come
and worship you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.”

The Beauty of Submission

Our submission to our husband--whether or not he is a Christian, whether or not he is obeying God--preaches a lovelier and more powerful sermon that our mouth ever could.

~Elizabeth George

What power is in the virtue of Biblical submission to affect souls for eternity!

I Will Glory In My Redeemer!

I will glory in my Redeemer
Whose priceless blood has ransomed me
Mine was the sin that drove the bitter nails
And hung Him on that judgment tree
I will glory in my Redeemer
Who crushed the power of sin and death
My only Savior before the Holy Judge
The Lamb Who is my righteousness
The Lamb Who is my righteousness

I will glory in my Redeemer
My life He bought, my love He owns
I have no longings for another
I’m satisfied in Him alone
I will glory in my Redeemer
His faithfulness my standing place
Though foes are mighty and rush upon me
My feet are firm, held by His grace
My feet are firm, held by His grace

I will glory in my Redeemer
Who carries me on eagle’s wings
He crowns my life with lovingkindness
His triumph song I’ll ever sing
I will glory in my Redeemer
Who waits for me at gates of gold
And when He calls me it will be paradise
His face forever to behold
His face forever to behold
His face forever to behold

Salvation of Their Souls

What is the ultimate goal in having biblical love for our children? It is nothing less than desiring for the salvation of their souls. Our goal is not that our children be happy, successful, popular, or live out their dreams...the chief end of mothering is to want our children to repent of their sins, believe and trust in Jesus Christ, and share that wonderful gospel to the world.

JC Ryle states:

This is the thought that should be uppermost on your mind in all you do for your children. In every step you take about them, in every plan, scheme, and arrangement that concerns them, do not leave out that mighty question, "How will this affect their souls?"

We must intentionally make this a priority in our mothering.
