"She will not hinder him but help him all her life." Proverbs 31:12
How do u get past the point of exhaustion to meet the needs he has without wanting your own needs to be seen, heard, and tended to?
Ladies, this is where we get at times, this is where i get and to deny that is lying to ourselves, to God, and others.
The woman spoken of in 1 Peter 3 was a woman who went past her feelings and helped. She went past focusing on herself and focused on his needs.
She did it because her focus was on something better than what was before her-yes there is something and someone better-Jesus!
If my eyes are not focused on Christ but on this man standing before me I can't see past the exhaustion and beckoning of my needs to help him.
Those two things are too loud and too big that they block my vision and drowned out the sound of the Holy Spirit encouraging me, guiding me and speaking words of wisdom within me.
This is where I am ladies! I am seeking to be a helper who inspires her hubby to want more of Jesus-but right now I am dealing with these two giants before me-exhaustion and the hunger pains coming from my needs.
Love reaches past those giants; it destroys them leaving them for dead so that it can prevail.
Sincere, genuine love gets you past the hindering and aids in helping. So I must stay in check with that love to make sure it is sincere and genuine for Christ and not for me or for him.
Jesus went beyond exhaustion and the beckoning of His needs for me. I see that especially this week as we study His death, burial, and resurrection.
He went past it and so can I, so can you.
Love prevailed!
Jesus You set the perfect example and how amazing it was. Thank You for making life possible, marriage possible, healing possible. Amen
