BE A HUMBLE SERVANT

Chapter 3

1) V.1-15 ruin of social order in Judah is laid at feet of leaders. they will be punished. Seriousness and responsibility of leaders.
"To whom much is given, much is expected"--parable of talents Luke 12:48 Don't ever take it lightly.
2) Look what happens when women take over and or rule. God will take away what ultimately means the most to us-- in this case the having of children.
It reminds me James 3:1 "Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my sisters, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly."
It is very easy to become teacher when I study bible with others . I always need to be reminded . Rosanna was so brave and honest to tell me the truth in love.

Hi Rox,

Once in my conversation with Ceci and CP, I expressed to them that I would like to learn how to give a 20-30 minutes talk (similar to preching on stage in one-way than interactive) to women to motivating their convictions as a submissive women in front of God.

Now from your qt, I know its not easy because the one who preach will be judged. I asked myself, "Am I going to hold back or willing to encouter the judgmental comments?" Or, I just simply tell myself that, "God will count the cost but the most important part for myself is to check my motive of wanting to do that."

As we have been talking about how today's women could be inspired to go back to the high standard of God's instruction - to be a submissive wife and women. This week, I will spend all my qt focus on the theme of Gentleness and see how God inpsires and leads my understanding.

Any comments?

love, bonnie

Teaching(preaching)and sharing are quite different . For me, "pride" and "practice" are the main issue.
I always feel that you are using coaching or sharing in most of your approach. It is very easy for others to accept.

Love
Rox
