Are you a crown or a rotting to His bones? Part 1

I listened to a message done by Mrs. Britt Williams-

The information was such a treasure to me and a challenge that I thought I would share what I wrote down.

As Mothers and wives we must hold true to the word of God and be obedient to what God has command of us.

What kind of Testimony are you and your family? What do people see when they look upon you and your family?

Do they see Biblical order?

ponder these questions- think of what others might say of you.

Ok-

what kind of testimony are you to your husband? How do we represent him and his leadership?

Proverbs 12:4
(4)  A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed  is as rottenness  in his bones.

What Kind of Crown have you adorned your husband with?

Is it sparkling with:

- contentment

- obedience

- love

-reverence

or is it missing jewels, bent and tarnished?

-nagging

- grief

-bitterness

A women who maketh him ashamed is

-not content

-nagging

- disobedient

- argumentative  is rottenness to his bones.

Bones support our body and if there is rottenness in them there is serious trouble.

rottenness causes the bones to be

- weak

So when a wife is rottenness to the bones she weakens him, his testimony and his influence.

A few ways a wife weakens her husband:

  1. Talks about him in a negative way

  2. Fails to be a helpmeet to him, but rather expects him to be a helpmeet to her.

          Does this mean he can’t help you? No- but if you believe that you can’t accomplish what you need to without his help it is wrong. We are to be a helpmeet to him, not the other way around. We were created to help them accomplish what God has called of them.

   3. Talk down to him

      - to point out every time he makes a mistake

    - to talk to him like he is a 5 year old

   - focus on his failures instead of his success.

4. Keep your home in a way that would be unfit for him to be hospitable to others

5. You dress in way that would bring him shame

6. You could encourage a disrespectful attitude towards him in the children.

……. to be continued……..

This information is so rich- I thought it best to put it two parts.. ponder these words. I would love to hear from you how these words spoke to you.

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
