God’s Plan for a Wife by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 09/20/11

“We say, then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken.” – Amy Carmichael

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Did you know that the Bible has a lot to say about the kind of wife God wants you to be?

“Proverbs 31:11—Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.”

Nancy: Can your husband trust you to be morally faithful?

“Proverbs 31:12—She does him good and not evil all the days of her life.”

Nancy: Does your husband know that you’re committed to him no matter what?

“As the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything—Ephesians 5:24.”

Nancy: Are you submissive in your actions, as well as your attitudes?

Developing a portrait of biblical womanhood is a lifelong process. But thankfully, the Word of God has all we need to help us become the women that God created us to be.
