I originally wrote a devotional for a mother-daughter tea that I gave at my church. I want to make it into a 3-part series to tell you what I learned about my God-given purpose in these three areas of my life.
In a world where identity and labels have become so important, I think these three are essential in our lives as women. Notice the order they are in: woman, wife, and mother. We are defined as women first in Genesis. The other definitions came later. Not all may fit everyone, but I wager you will fit at least one. It is essential to know who you are and what your purpose is here.
Roles were clearly defined in the Bible. I know I may step on some toes with what I am going to say, but I feel it is essential that we learn the truth. John 8:31-32 says, “So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” You will be free from depending on the world to define you and tell you who and what you are. You will know without a doubt.
I hope all reading this know Him as their Lord and Savior. If not, please do not hesitate to contact me. I would be happy to show you in God’s word how you can find this freedom from sin and the world.
