Dear Readers, this weeks blog is a reprint of one I posted in May 2018. The reason for this reprint is that I suffered some mild health issues that ‘way-laid’ me for most of the week. I have been told by friends and family that I need to slow down and smell the roses and perhaps rethink my efforts of trying to be a “Super Woman” for the family of God in this life.
I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THAT, THOUGH! I’LL HAVE TO CHECK WITH MY FAVORITE MENTOR…JESUS CHRIST. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS SITUATION.
Okay, in our efforts to be perfect we sometimes forget to put the “e” in the mix.
So What! Just remember what is written.
God’s requirements for success are unchanging and straightforward: Keep the faith, keep his commandments, officiate in love and stay on his path of truth and righteousness. Read the conversation below for a better understanding. |
OH LORD, HOW CAN I BECOME A SUPER WOMAN IN THE FAMILY OF GOD?
If you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them, I will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not beneath. Deuteronomy 28:13b-13a
BUT LORD, I STILL DON’T UNDERSTAND. FOR EVEN THOUGH I STUDY YOUR WORD MY HEART IS HEAVY MORE OFTEN THAN GLAD.
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. 3 John 1:2
TELL ME, MASTER, HOW CAN MY SOUL PROSPER?
My child, it is written that the just shall live by faith; but if anyone draws back, my soul has no pleasure in her. Hebrews 10:38
HOLY FATHER, DO YOU MEAN THAT I AM PREVENTING MYSELF FROM DEVELOPING INTO A SUPER WOMAN IN YOU BECAUSE MY FAITH IS WEAK?
Consider Abraham, he believed in me and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Therefore know that only those who are of faith are daughters of Abraham. Galatians 3:6, 7
THEN ACCORDING TO YOUR WORD, DEAR JESUS, IF I INCREASE MY FAITH IN YOU, YOU WILL BLESS ME AND MAKE ME A SUPER WOMAN?
Surely blessing I will bless you and multiplying I will multiply you. Hebrews 6:14
OH, JESUS, YOU ARE SO GOOD AND SO KIND. AND I PROMISE TO INCREASE MY FAITH AND DEPEND SOLELY UPON YOU IN EVERYTHING I DO.
Just remember, faith comes not by your own might, but faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17
SO THAT I MIGHT UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY, MY LORD, LET ME REPEAT WHAT YOU SAID. IN ORDER FOR ME TO BECOME A SUPER WOMAN IN YOUR HOUSE, I MUST LISTEN AND OBEY YOUR COMMANDMENTS AND YOU WILL MAKE ME THE HEAD AND NOT THE TAIL.
YOU ALSO DESIRE THAT I NOT ONLY BECOME A PROSPEROUS WOMAN, BUT THAT MY SOUL BE ENRICHED AS WELL. AND THE BLESSING IS THAT ALL OF THIS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED JUST BY INCREASING MY FAITH IN YOU.
That’s right, daughter. And you should also remember that without faith it is impossible to please me. Hebrews 11:6
I KNOW WHAT FAITH IS, LORD, IT IS LIKE HOPING AGAINST HOPE THAT AN INCURABLE SITUATION WILL GET BETTER EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW.
I say it a little differently…Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
THANK YOU, LORD, FOR THIS VISIT AND I AM DETERMINED TO PUT MY FAITH INTO PRACTICE AND NOT ALLOW SATAN TO ROB ME OF MY SUPERIORITY IN YOU.
Well said, my beloved, for the thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10
Scripture Reference: “You shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you.” Deuteronomy 5:33 |

Sister Fowler, I sure hope you’re feeling better today. I’m so sorry you’ve been under the weather.. I’ll be praying for you.
To your point of being Super Woman for the family of God.. I don’t think we ever retire from serving God. BUT, I don’t see anything wrong with asking Him just how much you should be doing. I know I’ve slowed down a lot, but I feel certain that it’s been within what He would have me do at this point. And I think that’s the key. What does He want? And He is not a taskmaster.
God bless you today. And may He bring strength and healing to your body, soul, and mind. 🙂

Hello Dee. I also believe that whatever we are going through, God is there and will see us through it. No, He is not a taskmaster BUT knows just how much we can bear. I will repeat an old saying one of my mentors used to say…”I will trust in the Lord and serve the Lord until traveling days are done.” Amen!
