How are you applying and living out 1 Peter 3:1-6-
“In the same way, you wives must accept the authority of your husbands, even those who refuse to accept the Good News. Your godly lives will speak to them better than any words. They will be won over by watching your pure, godly behavior. Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should be known for the beauty that comes from within the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God. That is the way the holy women of old made themselves beautiful. They trusted God and accepted the authority of their husbands. For instance, Sarah obeyed her husband, Abraham, when she called him her master. You are her daughters when you do what is right without fear of what your husbands might do.” 1 Peter 3:1-6
Jesus help us become better helpers. Change our vision to see past our husbands straight to You. May we always remember it is You we are helping and serving. Help us find joy in our role as a wife. When times get tough and the demands of our roles become overwhelming and too heavy to bear, would You lift us up beneath the load, and remind us that we are not doing this alone-You are with us. Amen
