HOW TO BE A CHRISTIAN WOMAN AT WORK AND AT HOME

THIS IS NOT AN EASY TASK. SOME OF THE ADVICE I MIGHT GIVE YOU WOULD BE THINGS I HAVE LEARNED THE HARD WAY. MY FIRST ADVICE WOULD BE DO NOT WORK OUTSIDE THE HOME IF AT ALL POSSIBLE. ASK YOURSELF, AM I WORKING FOR THE NECESSITIES FOR MY FAMILY OR AM I WORKING FOR THE “I WANTS” FOR MY FAMILY. IF IT IS FOR THE “I WANTS” – STAY AT HOME AND BE A HOME ENGINEER, PEACEMAKER. NURSE, TEACHER, CRAFTSMAN, BIBLE TEACHER, IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOLDING THEIR LIVES IN A WAY PLEASING TO GOD. NOW ASK YOURSELF THE QUESTION, IS MONEY OR CAREER MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE ABOVE TASKS. BECAUSE THESE TASKS
CANNOT BE DONE AS EFFECTIVELY BY ANYONE BUT YOU.

NOW IF YOUR ANSWER WAS THAT YOU HAVE TO WORK FOR THE NECESSITIES OF LIFE OR YOU ARE WORKING PRIOR TO STARTING YOUR FAMILY, THEN I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO SIT DOWN WITH YOUR MATE AND TO DRAW UP A PLAN FOR HOW TO PRIORITIZE YOUR LIVES. GOD FIRST, FAMILY SECOND, CHURCH, AND THEN YOUR JOB. WHEN YOU ARE ON THE JOB, YOU AS A CHRISTIAN ARE TO DO THE BEST JOB YOU POSSIBLY CAN, AND ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN LADY – DRESS AND ACT THAT WAY. KIND TO EVERYONE, BUT NOT OVERLY FRIENDLY TO THE OPPOSITE SEX. WHEN YOU GO HOME – BE HOME – DON ‘T BRING YOUR WORK HOME WITH YOU IN YOUR TALK OR IN ANY WAY. LEAVE IT AT THE OFFICE. WHEN YOU ARE HOME YOU HAVE THE OTHER TASKS TO ACCOMPOLISH, BECAUSE JUST BECAUSE YOU WORK IT DOES NOT RELEASE YOU FROM YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES YOU TOOK ON AS A WIFE OR MOTHER. THIS IS WHERE IT REALLY GETS DIFFICULT. YOU COME HOME TIRED PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY AND THEN HAVE TO TAKE ON THE JOB OF HOME ENGINEER, PEACEMAKER, NURSE, TEACHER, ETC. THE FIRST THING IS TO HAVE A PLAN WORKED OUT WITH ALL YOUR FAMILY OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES AND THEIRS - ALWAYS REMEMBERING GOD COMES FIRST. JESUS CHRIST AS THE CENTER OF YOUR LIFE. CHRIST IS NOT VALUED AT ALL UNLESS HE IS VALUED ABOVE ALL.
1. APPROACH GOD EARLY. START YOUR DAY OFF WITH GOD. IF THAT MEANS GETTING UP A LITTLE EARLY –DO IT. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. ASK GOD TO HELP YOU, CLEANSE YOU AND LEARN HIS WORD FOR IT EMPOWERS YOU.
2. COME BEFORE GOD WITH CONFIDENCE – AS YOU READ YOUR BIBLE UNDERLINE PHRASES THAT APPEAR AS A PROMISE AND CLAIM THE PROMISES FOUND IN HIS WORD.
3. APPROACH GOD WITH CLEAN HANDS. CONFESS YOUR SINS AND ASK GOD TO FORGIVE YOU.
4. THE BEST WAY TO GET ON YOUR FEET, IS ON YOUR KNEES, SO GO TO GOD IN DEEP, SINCERE PRAYER = TELLING HIM WHAT YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE DAY ARE AND ASK FOR HIS WISDOM AND GUIDANCE. ASK GOD TO LEAD YOU – DON’T TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT HIM TO DO.

THROUGH ALL YOUR DAY REMEMBER THE SUREST MARK OF A CHRISTIAN IS NOT FAITH OR EVEN LOVE, BUT JOY. THE JOY THAT JESUS GIVES IS THE RESULT OF OUR DISPOSITION BEING AT ONE WITH HIS OWN DISPOSITION. WE ALL GO THROUGH PAIN AND SORROW, BUT THE PRESENCE OF GOD LIKE A WARM COMFORTING BLANKET, CAN SHIELD US AND P0ROTECT US AND ALLOW THE DEEP INNER JOY TO SURFACE, EVEN IN THE MOST DEVASTATING CIRCUMSTANCES. WE ALL CAN RELATE TO THAT, WE ALL HAVE BEEN THERE. KEEP YOUR JOY IN THE LORD FOR HE CARES FOR YOU AND HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU. REST IN HIM!
