Who had said those, Cynthia?

The Chuck Norris one was my husband.

The other one, I don't know. I saw it somewhere and liked it.

11 You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore

Psalm 16:11

 

[mkgal1]

There's a massive difference between being perfect and being virtuous. Jesus was perfect; we can not be perfect in the way He was, but through Him, we can be virtuous. And that's both men and women.

11 You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore

Love that.

Aww, I feel special!

Proverbs 31:10-12 "10Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. 11The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life."

Just read that, and it stood out to be as something strive for. Something to pray for.

Isaiah 66 vs 12 - 13
I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of nations like a flooding stream;
you will nurse and be carried on her arm and dandled on her knees
As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you, and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.

[Romanseight2005]

What you do, when you think no one is looking, reveals your true character.

So keep the faith! Things are winding down—but we are going up!

I'll get in trouble if I start picking specific verses from Ephesians out of context, won't I?

 

[WolfGate]

From Galthians 3
26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Psalm 37:4 - Delight thyself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.

The key to understanding this verse is the first part. I've learned that as my source of delight changes, so will my heart's desires.
