In all I am, do, and will write, my aim is to hit God's mark. I will have moments of being misguided as I am not perfect, but know that I serve a God that loves me through it all.
I love the word submission. Horror upon horrors! Love submission? Yes, that's what I said.
It's one of those words that when you truly understand the meaning you can't help but sit back and smile. True submission brings about contentment. Why? Because following God's Word ALWAYS has the end result of being content. No brainer, Ladies, Our Creator knows what is best. His best will ALWAYS result in something positive even if the process hurts a little....or even a lot.
Now before you start throwing darts at me and calling me a doormat for actually WANTING to submit to my husband....read this amazingly written blog entry: Submission
See? Dirty, dirty word.
The word itself has become like a beautiful white towel stained with filthy spots from our childish unclean hands. Let's not throw the towel out. Let God bleach it clean to reveal its true beauty.
But just a warning: Like that pile of laundry you have on the sofa, bleaching the submission towel must be completed over and over and over again.
Happy submitting!
Many Blessings,
Holly
P.S. Yep, changed the original title to this blog. Original brought some unsavories to my blog. Duh.
Sure, sure, lure me in with tempting titles like that, and then try to teach me something beneficial.
I am so submission challenged. In fact, of all the Willy Wonka characters, I most resemble Veruca Salt. Thank you for reminding me that the bleaching process must be done daily. I just want to do it once and be done, but it doesn't work like that.
I'm so glad he makes his mercies new every morning :)
