Today's
Virtuous
Vitamin

~WISDOM~
ability

Congratulations to
you!!! If you've
followed the entire
Virtuous Woman program,
you've just introduced a
lot of TRUTH to your
mind and eliminated a
lot of lies that the
world had planted there.
There are a lot of
things in our lives that
we don't realize are
wrong until something or
someone points out the
TRUTH.
|
Proverbs
14:12
There is a
way which
seemeth
right unto a
man, but the
end thereof
are the ways
of death. |
Now that you have begun
to uncover the TRUTH,
your Father expects you
to act on it. Put these
principles of virtue to
work in your life. Make
them a part of your
lifestyle each and every
day. Make them who you
are. Encourage others to
do the same.
|
Proverbs
13:20
He that
walketh with
wise men
shall be
wise: but a
companion of
fools shall
be
destroyed. |
|
Proverbs
15:7
The lips of
the wise
disperse
knowledge:
but the
heart of the
foolish
doeth not
so. |
There is only One who is
truly the Judge of
whether or not you are
virtuous.
I urge you to get
involved in the Women's
forums and share your
ideas with other women
who may need your
insight and/or support.
One thing to keep in
mind is that virtue
doesn't necessarily
improve with age, in
fact, we've been working
all this time on getting
back to the little girl
in you because virtue is
in innocence, not in
experience, so don't be
intimidated by someone
just because they're
older than you. You may
find that you can teach
them a thing or two.
It's not all about being
a woman of today ...
It's about being an old
fashioned woman ...
Getting back to
wholesomeness and
righteousness ... AND
VIRTUE!
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN?
The opposite of virtue
is evil. You'll find
that most women find it
too difficult or
inconvenient or boring
to strive for virtue in
all aspects of their
life, but you wouldn't
exactly call them evil
either. Most women are
somewhere in between.
It's where they have
decided their comfort
zone is, probably
because it takes the
least effort and is most
accepted by the world.
You deserve so much
better than to be like
the average "today's
woman." They're a dime a
dozen. There is nothing
special about them ...
In the Lord's eyes. Do
you suppose the Lord is
looking for a bride that
will only shoot for
being adequate or do you
think He's seeking those
who seek Him, those who
are diligent, who are
earnest, who strive, who
yearn to be the best for
Him? Don't settle for
being average. You've
got everything it takes
to be extraordinary. Go
for it. Give yourself
pep talks. Reward
yourself when you know
you've accomplished
something good. Don't
give up. I'm cheering
for you all the way!
You will be an example
to so many people of
what living virtuously
can do for a person's
life. You will find that
the Lord will bless you
in ways you hadn't been
blessed before when you
put Him first in your
life and live the kind
of life that represents
Him.
If you discovered a
recipe for the best
chicken you ever tasted
and you knew that you
had all the ingredients
to make it at any given
time, you wouldn't go
back to making it your
old way. Likewise, when
you discover how being
virtuous can improve
your life and your hope
of eternal life, you'll
never want to return to
worldly ways again.
Share it with the world
... You can make it a
better place.
Don't forget, the recipe
you're preparing is for
the perfect bride of
Jesus Christ, and you
have every ingredient
you need.
Here is TRUTH ...
Earthly marriages are
NOT carried over in
Heaven.
You become as the Angels
and serve Him and THAT
is the Spiritual
Marriage ...
|
Mark
12:24-25
And Jesus
answering
said unto
them,
Do ye not
therefore
err, because
ye know not
the
scriptures,
neither the
power of
God? For
when they
shall rise
from the
dead, they
neither
marry, nor
are given in
marriage;
but are as
the Angels
which are in
Heaven.

I'd also like to remind
you once again, now that
you've completed the
program, to begin again,
one Step each day, as
many times as it takes,
until your virtues
become effortless. And
just like any good
recipe you discover ...
Pass it on to someone
you love.
Finally, it seems
fitting that you should
get to know Jesus
Christ, your betrothed,
better, so the related
studies below will help
you to do just that.
I
especially encourage you
to do the CCCC
program, even though you
may not have any
problems that you think
require counseling. It's
a fantastic program that
has changed thousands of
peoples' lives.
Be sure
to check out our other
interactive programs
too, which will help you
in your cause of
becoming a Virtuous
Christian Woman.
