Good Morning Girlz!!!
S - Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband.
O - Paul is pointing out the importance of love & respect between a husband and wife.
A - Love & respect are foundational to relationships. There are many times that I'm not the most loving person. Whether it's because the person irritates me, or I'm being selfish, or I'm just plain moody, whatever the reason...sometimes it's just hard to be loving.
P - Lord please help me to be a good example of You. May love & respect be present in all my relationships. Thank You for giving us Your Word to instruct us in how we should live.
Hope everyone has a fun weekend planned! Jenifer have fun in Waco visiting your friend! Eat some Bush's chicken for me! Karlyn you tell those boys I said to go play in the dirt & give Thea a big squeeze for me. Cindy tell Owen to come to West Texas! Amber, so glad to hear the twins are growing good. Praying that keeps up! I've got dinner with the girls tonight, breakfast with a friend in the morning, making a rain barrel tomorrow afternoon, going shooting after that, and church Sunday. Lots of fun stuff! Love you gals!

Ginny - Ephesians 5:21-24
Praying for Tessa's wedding and weather and all of the above! I hope it is a beautiful, fun day!
Amy & I had a blast making all our pinterest stuff! We tried the laundry detergent and it seemed to work fine. I might do a little more experimenting with scents for the detergent. The lotion is wonderful, and I'll try out the weed killer this weekend. Amy is becoming a pro with her bread stuff, so it turned out great and tasted so good! The liquid hand soap was pretty runny, but based on the reviews that is fairly normal. On the ice packs, I think I will try a new recipe next time. I wasn't too impressed.
S - and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ. Marriage Like Christ and the Church. Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body. But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.
O - The church is to be submissive and obedient to the Lord just as a wife is to her husband.
A - God is our head, so our church body should function as one to obey, honor, and respect His authority. Speaking of churches, I have to tell y'all! Y'all know how I have been praying for ways to get involved? Ways to really meet needs. Go out of my way for people. This Bible Study has brought my attention to that. Well, last week I got a letter in the mail from my pastor asking me to join a small group of folks at the church to begin the task of setting up some servant ministry projects. There is already a church in town that does this, and it is really cool. The church that is already doing this takes a week each year and sends out teams from the church to do incredible projects in the city. It's almost like an extreme makeover feel. They do huge projects for people in need and ask for nothing in return. I have no idea if our concept will look the same, but the point is this is a pretty clear answer to prayer! I am so interested in hearing what the staff already has in mind and getting the planning underway. It's what the church should be about not just one week out of the year, but everyday.
P - Lord I specifically pray for this new opportunity at the church. I pray for direction and enthusiasm as we begin to talk and plan. Thank You for the opportunity to be out in the world making a difference for You. Prepare now the people and projects that we can do to bring You glory and add more to Your Kingdom.

Ephesians 5:21-24, Karlyn
Good Monday Morning!!!! I've missed you. Ginny it looks like y'all had fun this weekend.
S - and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ. Wives be subject to your own husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ also is the head of the church. He himself being the Savior of the body.But as the church is subject to Christ so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.
O - I know this is one of the most controversial passages especially for women who are very much into the woman empowerment, but God is very orderly and he designed men and women a certain way for a reason...to glorify him. Believers make up the church and we are the bride of Christ, we are subject to him. He created marriage between a man and woman and we as women are the bride and subject to the husband not as a mindless slave but in a respectful attitude we follow the lead of our husband and let him follow Christ's lead.
A - I wish this wasn't such an issue for some people because when this is carried out the way God intended it's not degrading to women but actually protects us and gives us the opportunity to carry out life the way God designed us to. His design is always best. I may be rambling but that comes from sleep deprivation:)
P - Lord help me to live in a way that I am always subject to your direction and thank you for designing us the way you did by allowing us to lead and to follow.
