Free Christian Living Resources from Elizabeth and Jim George

I love Elizabeth George. I haven't met her in person but I've read a lot of her books and she writes in such a way that you feel as though you're her friend, which I also love. Today I decided to check out her blog. This led me to make the paint image above and I thought I'd share it with you. Her website also has a nice group of free resources so I just had to share that link with you too. May God bless Elizabeth and Jim George, their ministries, and may He bless you too!

For those who might not be able to read the text on the image above, here it is:

God's Purpose for the Lives of Christian Women
"Titus 2:3-5, con­tains these essentials on which to focus our time and energies:

• Be godly in your behavior.
• Be truthful and kind in your speech.
• Be disciplined and self-controlled.
• Be devoted to your husband.
• Be devoted to your children.
• Be discreet and wise in your actions.
• Be chaste and pure inside and out.
• Be focused on your home.
• Be kind and good to all.
• Be a teacher/encourager of good things."

Disclaimer note: I have no material connection with Elizabeth or Jim George and wasn't asked or paid to write this post.

Life's Purpose - Love

As Christians there are many ways to view God's will for your life. But if we're being honest with ourselves whatever you're doing needs to be in line with the two greatest commandments from Matthew 22: 37-39: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’" It's not something any of us can probably achieve 100 percent of the time on this side of heaven but definitely is worth striving toward. 

No matter how we feel or what circumstances surround us we can choose to worship God, shed our selfish nature and put on loving kindness. Remembering that it's not our strength but His strength that makes this transition possible. I pray, dear reader friend, that you will choose love today. May God fill you with His loving Spirit and work His love in you today!
