I love this video by John Piper. It reminds me of what Biblical womanhood is really about, which is possessing a deep-rooted faith in God.
Listening to the video, I wrote down a few of the key points that he shares along with the scripture to meditate on. The video is only four and a half minutes long–enjoy!
- The deepest root of Christian womanhood is hope in God. She doesn’t put her hope in her husband or in getting one, and she doesn’t put her hope in her looks.
- This hope in God yields fearlessness. “You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.” ~ 1 Peter 3:6, NIV.
- He is sovereign over everything. Your knowledge and understanding of this is what drives out your fear as you rest in Him.
- A certain kind of tree grows up from this massive deep root of hope in God, and it yields fearlessness in the face of suffering. “Therefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.” ~ 1 Peter 4:19, KJV.
You are loved by an almighty God,
Darlene
