1 & 2 Timothy નમૂનો

If we only realized how our lives could be different if we placed more importance on the power of prayer. What if we spent as much time praying each day as we spend getting ready for work, school, or church? Paul isn’t stating that women shouldn’t try to make themselves look nice before they headed out for the day. He had an issue with their motive. Certain women in Timothy’s church were more concerned about how they looked on the outside and one-upping each other than they were with the condition of their hearts. Nothing is wrong with wanting to look nice, but we must remember that true beauty comes from within. 

Dear Jesus,

Forgive me when I have been more focused on how I look on the outside instead of cultivating my inner beauty. Help me to be a woman of prayer, spending more time praying each day than fretting about how I look. Help me to be an example for the next generation of women, modeling for them how not to fall into the comparison trap, but rather how to learn to delight in how You uniquely made each one of us. Amen.
