I am currently reading a book called "Feminine Appeal:Seven Virtues of a Godly Wife and Mother" by Carolyn Mahaney. Before I start to explain the part that I have read before, I really want to recommend it to all women...young and old, single and married alike. It truly is life-changing I can promise you that! The book is based on Titus 2 which says:
Titus 2:3-5
3Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. 4Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, 5to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.
Here are the 7 Virtues;
-The Delight of Loving Your Husband
-The Blessings of Loving Your Children
-The Safety of Self Control
-The Pleasure of Purity
-The Honor of Working at Home
-The Rewards of Kindness
-The Beauty of Submission
It gives women a clear vision of what true biblical feminity is supposed to look like. She provides honest guidance to women of all ages.
I am only three chapters into it and it is absolutely amazing.
I was asked to read it, and at first I was thinking, "how is this going to apply to me?"...but after the first chapter, I was so encouraged and so eager to move on.
I will post a review when I am done!
Have a wonderful week!
