Titus 2 v 3 -5

I have been thinking on the scriptures Titus 2 v 3-5.

The aged women likewise, that [they be] in behaviour

as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to

much wine, teachers of good things;

That they may teach the young women to be sober, to

love their husbands, to love their children,

[To be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to

their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

In today's society where so many wrong messages are sent out to our women we need the older women to take a stand and be role models, build relationships and speak truth. Likewise younger women need to humble ourselves and listen.

I would like to encourage all you mature women to put your hand up and reach out to the younger generation. Don't let the enemy talk you into believing that you have nothing to give. If you walk with the Lord and want to be used by him, have experienced heartaches, struggles and victories, sorrow, joy and his love then you have all you need. Just open your heart and share.

By mature women I am meaning any of you who have older teenage children to adult children you don't have to be a grandmother sitting in a rocking chair:). If you have not had children that does not discount you, you have much to offer.

Allot of the younger generation are getting their life advise from daytime talk shows, which are filling women's heads with new age, humanism and popular culture views.

Young mums or young marrieds or younger singles make yourself available, the older generation have so much to give if given the chance.

I look forward to developing relationships with older women of God. I know this is not an easy thing to do, to find another woman who you can build relationship with and it does take time but I am sure the benefits outweigh the time it takes. Being an only child I am use to being by myself and can go for days without talking to other women and can so easily get caught up in my little projects and little world of husband and Children. This is something that I have to be aware of.

Our Church has started a Grandads ministry for men it is such a great idea where a group of "Grandfathers" in our church have offered their time to younger men to pray with them, befriend them or just be an ear. I would love to see something like this for the women as well. Just think of what would happen if every church offered this with strong Christian role models. Maybe marriages would benefit, divorce would be lowered, family relationships strengthened and peoples personal relationship with the Lord strengthened.

Okay girls it is time to turn off the daytime talk shows and go and build a relationship with someone.
