Mentored

These past few days I have been sitting at the feet of women; women who have the courage to be authentic, women in different stages of life, women who above all love their Savior and God.

As I sat there listening to their stories and heart songs, I find myself grow quiet within. It was almost like a breath of fresh air, to walk away from the strife, control and envy to quietness, submission, love and gentleness. Here are women who are not perfect but found their rest in the Only One that truly satisfy.

As I see how they love children, submit to their husbands, work hard at what they are responsible for, there flows such a sweetness that it makes my heart glad.

Father,
teach me to love like these women do
teach me to be content when the world screams for me to buy more, to have more, to look for more
teach me to always encourage
teach me to inspire
teach me to submit even when the world says demand your rights
teach me most of all to love You above all else
teach me that the greatest joy and satisfaction is not found in my many purchases, neither in my career or in the arms of a man
teach me to hide myself in You
teach me that only You complete me

Most of all, teach me to be like You
To have Your heart
That loves and cares

Teach me
