Posted- 6/2/2010: I've been contemplating on a word of encouragement; I wanted to speak to the heart of you the women of God; those set aside to lead through the life that we live. We minister, pray, deposit and pour into the lives of many . . . . but in "that moment", when you seemed to be in despair, confused, broken, bruised . . . . (who) will minister life into you?
When we leading ladies get together, we must put on our "church face", and when we are asked how are you?; we automatically resound "I'm blessed and highly favored of the Lord", but to those who have a spirit of discernment, at "that moment" we began to whisper of prayer "Lord, may it be Peace in her midst.
Do you have someone who you can talk to, someone you can minister to and be ministered by; someone who will labor with you and pray with and for you? Can you trust that sister to know your thoughts, that will speak words of encouragement to you; to keep your eyes on God, to not be moved, by what you hear or what you see, but that which is "truth " the Word of God; remember we must press, confess and watch God work in our midst.
I must admit, you can not talk to everyone about everything; but God has anointed and appointed someone, who can provide the support needed to keep you lifted and encouraged as you minister unto others. Someone who will not judge you, but listen with a heart of compassion; that special one who you can call sister, friend .
I don't have to go into great detail, but we all know those "that moment" when need to be heard, when we have a few things on our minds; when we move our neck and point our finger, in " that moment" you need your sister, friend to listen and encourage you, because that very thing that got you boiling, may not be as big as you think. In "that moment", you can be heard, and ministered to and yet there be "peace" the house.
Accountability Titus 2:3-5: Likewise, teach the older (mature) women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.(NIV)
Ask God for what you need!! Lord, I pray for someone with whom I can share my inner life - someone who will encourage me to be accountable. Please provide a mature woman who will mentor me and keep my life struggles confidential. I pray for someone with a loving heart - a person who won't judge me but will pray for and with me. Help me to be wise and responsible, but when I'm not, Lord, help me to learn and grow in my spiritual development. I want to be strong in Your strength. Amen.
Ladies, I extend my ear and my heart to you, you may contact Lady Fadrienne Green by sending me a message through my inbox; I will pray with you and for you; if you have questions, I will strive to answer them with wisdom, not my personal opinion, and for those questions that I do not have an answer, I will seek the answer and will return with a sound answer. God Bless You!!
