Encouragement for Christian Sisters

Hello sister saints! Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.   Philippians 4:21  It was a very cold day but brother James cut wood anyway and we continued to load the new woodbin he recently added to the end of his shop.  We're thankful for it because our little woodstove keeps our tiny house toasty warm.  (Sometimes too warm but then that's what windows are for lol.)  I sent a picture of my computer screen in the works of starting this post and a sister sent it back with scripture (thank you:-) That's so perfect because it goes right along with the audio for today (that I struggled to make lol)  It's a bit different but maybe that's good cuz it might help me for going forward.  Anyway it shows the real me and therefore the name (thanks for the title brother James - he's good at things like that:-)  Real Not Rehearsed. And you can find that HERE on the sisters audio page. I'm thankful for all my sisters who love the Lor

Hello sister saints who love the Lord..  Brother James and I were looking through some of his old pictures and videos on his phone (as he was cleaning it out from months and months ago lol) and I saw this picture... I told brother James 'I can't wait to get back out there and give the gospel out again!"    Then I said 'I don't like those words, 'can't wait' because I can wait and I'm not anxious because I'm joyful to have this day before us, but how can i say that rightly?'   He said 'zealous not anxious'.    That's it!  Zealous! Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.   Titus 2:14  Burning with zeal, I love that!!!!! The Lord has given brother James and I a burning zeal to share His precious truth and we have to control that in the right time and right place because it's all in His timing.  And as I was working on this post, I had

 Greetings to my Titus 2 sister saints!   I just wanted to share this simple recipe for mini micro cakes. (On the internet they call them mug cakes).  They are super simple and awesome because you can quickly bless unexpected guests with a treat in less than a few minutes and they are great for van life! Have a joyous day in the Lord. Sister Deb

 Greetings to our sister saints:-) Praise the Lord for this day to serve Him!  Today, washing clothes, I was pondering an audio to make for you sisters and what came to mind was the strength of the Lord and how we can show it to those around us.   You can also find it HERE on the sisters audio page.  It was a beautiful day, almost like spring, but I'm sure more cold is coming for a while but that's okay too:-) That's a wonderful and loving God but the verses that follow are not what we sisters saints want to hear.. But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. [3] For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. Isaiah 59:2-3  Let us examine ourselves and ask the Lord to help us do so...   Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:  And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead

Greetings sisters in the Lord! (Thank you sister for the scripture pictures:-) How was your day?  Ours was busy and I'm thankful for the health I have to do what I can do.  Yesterday I had to tear the inside of the van apart so brother James could get to some wiring down at the bottom (under everything of course) and ran better wires and today I put it all back together and was rejoicing that project was done!  I was also rejoicing that the Lord had mercy on me and it didn't cause too many painful issues and I was able to keep working through the day!!!  Seems like small things to do but when you have physical issues to deal with, sometimes the small things can seem really big.  Speaking of which, brother James gave me an idea on a video for you sisters, about the little things adding up. I mentioned this verse in the video... For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:   Isaiah 28:10  And if we sist

Good day to our godly, holy sister saints! Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.   John 8:12  I made an audio to encourage us sisters in our silent witness to the world... Praise God we get to partake of His precious truth and promises! (You can go HERE to listen to it on the sisters audio page.) And of course more Titus 2 works going on.  I had some cans of lentils and lentil soup that I can't eat anymore so I'll show you how I recycle them into a yummy dip for brother James.    And more of my soup making:-) I thought I'd try something really simple like potato green bean soup with onion and garlic. I was chopping garlic and admiring how God has it all packaged up in protective covering.   When I think of garlic, this comes to mind... We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the

Good day sister saints! Praises to our heavenly Father for one more day of His grace and mercy and the hope of eternal life for those who are His. We live this life for the Lord, not for ourselves and to see how good we can make our lives. We're here to glorify God through our transformed life be His witness to the world.  We sisters are always encouraging one another to keep pressing on in our duties and godly, holy women and just doing that is a great shining light of truth to those around us.  Then when we share the GOSPEL and plant seeds with others, that's even more truth shining in a dark place.   Several years ago I wrote about the attributes of a godly woman and thought I would repost them here again (as I think I have in the past) but it's good for us to remind ourselves.  Gracious : kindness, favor (Proverbs 11:16)   Virtuous : valor, strength, able, might(Proverbs 12:4) Sober : to make of sound mind, to discipline/correct (Titus 2:4) Chaste : properly, clean, in
