A God-fearing woman

1 peter 3 vs1-5

1.Wives,in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that,if any of the do not believe the word,they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives.
2.When they see the purity and reverence of your lives.
3.Your beauty should not come from outward adornment,such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.
4.Rather it should be that of your inner-self,the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit,which is of great worth on God's sight.
5.For this is the way a holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves.They submitted themselves to their husbands.

The beauty of a woman is seen from the inside reminds me of the proverb woman in the book of Proverbs 31,how she behaves in public and how she treats people.Inner beauty is a wonderful thing to have than outer beauty.I urge women as imperfect as we are to strive to have inner beauty.Pray that God help you to become the woman that He created you to be, not a woman that the world and the constitution of Republic of South Africa has created,a woman who believes that marriage is built in 50\50.The bible says the man is the head of the family,so if you may ask where should a woman be,I will say be the neck as the head cannot move without the neck,be the brain as the head won't function without the brain,I say be the eyes,ears,nose and mouth but don't be a loud mouth as the bible warns in proverbs 18vs21,choose to be the mouth that produces the fruits in your home.Pray that God be the center of your marriage and enjoy the true sense of marriage. A God-fearing woman knows that in the midst of a storm in her household she talks less and prays more. A god-fearing woman never forgets who she is in the Kingdom of God even when in difficult situations she knows how to carry herself well and still smiles and sing out loud "i do not understand but Lord it is so well with my soul."
