A Letter from God to Women

LETTER FROM GOD TO WOMEN

When I created the heavens and the earth, I spoke them into being. When I created man, I formed him and breathed life into his nostrils. But you, woman, I fashioned after I breathed the breath of life into man because your nostrils are too delicate. I allowed a deep sleep to come over him so I could patiently and perfectly fashion you. Man was put to sleep so that he could not interfere with the creativity. From one bone, I fashioned you. I chose the bone that protects man's life. I chose the rib, which protects his heart and lungs and supports him, as you are meant to do. Around this one bone, I shaped you..... I modeled you. I created you perfectly and beautifully. Your characteristics are as the rib, strong yet delicate and fragile. You provide protection for the most delicate organ in man, his heart. His heart is the center of his being; his lungs hold the breath of life. The rib cage will allow itself to be broken before it will allow damage to the heart. Support man as the rib cage supports the body. You were not taken from his feet, to be under him, nor were you taken from his head, to be above him. You were taken from his side, to stand beside him and be held close to his side. You are my perfect angel.....You are my beautiful little girl. You have grown to be a splendid woman of excellence, and my eyes fill when I see the virtues in your heart. Your eyes......don't change them. Your lips -- how lovely when they part in prayer. Your nose, so perfect in form. Your hands so gentle to touch. I've caressed your face in your deepest sleep. I've held your heart close to mine. Of all that lives and breathes, you are most like me. Adam walked with me in the cool of the day, yet he was lonely. He could not see me or touch me. He could only feel me. So everything I wanted Adam to share and experience with me, I fashioned in you; my holiness, my strength, my purity, my love, my protection and support. You are special because you are an extension of me. Man represents my image, woman my emotions. Together, you represent the totality of God. So man......treat women well. Love her, respect her, for she is fragile.

The struggles of the Tongue

The tongue, set on fire of hell or heaven?

"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil. For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness" James 3:13-18.

"As you go through life you are going to have many opportunities to keep your mouth shut. Take advantage of all of them." - James Dent.

"Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue " Prov. 17:28

The tongue set of fire of heaven

"They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them" Acts 2:3. You know the rest of the story, they preached the gospel and 3000 people were saved Acts 2:41. Then the Lord "added to the church daily" 2:47. THIS IS NORMAL and we should see it today! Later "they filled Jerusalem with their doctrine" 5:28 and finally it was said, "These men who have caused trouble all over the world have now come here" 17:6.

Lay people did it!
"All except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria"8:1. "Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went" 8:4.

The early Christians gathered to worship and scattered to witness. If all the "worshippers" on Sunday would "witness" on Monday we could turn the world right side up today. We have worship centers, worship houses, worship services, worship songs, worship leaders and rightly so but WHERE OH WHERE ARE THE WITNESSES? Did you worship on Sunday? Did you witness on Monday? I did not make up the rules. Jesus said, "Preach the gospel to EVERY creature (person). Let's do it and turn our world around for our good and God's glory.

Prayer: Father, forgive us for not obeying You. Help us to give every person a chance to go to heaven by graciously giving them a tract or the good news verbally. In Jesus name. YOU are loved, Calvary proves it. sumner
