Purity

book
There are many things to glean from this book that I just read. This book emphasizes many Biblical truths that are laid down before us and portrayed in the Proverbs 31 woman. There are five main topics that this book emphasizes as well as several sub topics. The five main topics are laid down as follows.
1. A Pure Heart
The Bible emphasizes that the pure in heart are the ones who will see God. After God washes your heart clean and you are born again, you no longer seek to manifest your sin nature. Instead you seek to serve Christ and obey His every command with Joy and Gladness.

2. Feminine Purity
Feminine Purity has many Biblical aspects. The strength of feminine purity is founded on the principles of the Word of God. There are six main things that define Feminine Purity.
- A pure woman reflects God’s image.
Both men and women were made in the image of God. We are God’s people and were created to glorify Him and obey Him. We were created to be a keeper at home and to raise a Godly seed that would tell the world of His Greatness.
- A pure woman knows what to value.
We should not be distracted by the cares and toils of this world.
- A pure woman know her real identity.
Being able to manage a home is God’s special gift to a woman.
- A pure woman has a gentle and quiet spirit.
Ist Peter 3:4 says,

4but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.

- A pure woman knows the Modesty of General Restraint.
Dressing in a Biblically modest fashion in physical and Spiritual appearance is precious in the sight of God. Woman should wear women’s clothing and not men’s. They should shine forth the inner beauty and portray the character of Christ in their day to day activities.
-Last of all, a pure woman respects submission. She is willing to do what is required of her. She does it with a cheerful heart and countenance. This is pleasing in the sight of God.

These five topics have many things that branch from them and help them to grow. A woman who serves the Lord with a cheerful heart is a happy woman and her reward will be great in Heaven. I encourage you to read this book and discover how rich the truths of the Bible are even when they are explained in a simple manner so that you may understand.

Strawberries

Today most of us went to a U-pick place to see what we could find in the way of these. All in all we were able to get 103 pounds.
berries
Most of the berries were made into jam. We also froze some whole as well as some sliced. Processing the berries was fun.

The Plan

Many things I had in mind,
The day started out quite simple.
I got up and prepared for the day,
Not hesitating a little.

I planned to do the normal things,
A usual day routine.
Little did I know that things would change,
It would never be the same again.

After eating breakfast,
I took a walk outside.
It was nice to feel the cool Spring breeze,
And in the Lord abide.

Suddenly I heard a noise,
The earth began to shake.
Rumbles and loud sounds all around,
The ground began to break.

Soon after, I heard a trumpet sound.
The angel heralds played.
The sounds, they grew louder,
It was Christ coming today.

I stood looking in amazement,
The day was finally here.
Christ was bringing me home to Himself,
There would be no more tears.

My plans for the day were marred,
But His plans were far better.
I know when I depart from this tent,
I will also be out of my fetter.

So I long for the day when He comes again,
To receive me as His own.
Walking by His pierced side,
And worshiping Him alone.

My Desire

ALL MY DESIRE IS BEFORE THEE

Perhaps some future day, Lord, Thy strong hand
Will lead me to the place where I must stand
Utterly alone.

Alone, O Gracious Lover, but for Thee;
I shall be satisfied if I can see
Jesus only.

I do not know Thy plan for years to come,
My spirit finds in Thee its perfect home,
Sufficiency.

Lord, all my desire is before Thee now,
Lead on, no matter where, no matter how–
I trust in Thee.

—Elisabeth Elliot
