Worthy is the lamb

Hi....
We are all loved by the God of this Universe, who sent His only begotten Son JESUS CHRIST to die for all man kind.
Each one of us are precious in God's sight!!

When a wife who is a believer in Christ Jesus, has a hubby who still needs to know the Lord, she prays and then fasts and prays and does all she can to see her husband turn to JESUS. But for months and years when nothing seems to work, she tends to get frustrated.
Then if her hubby is struggling with a habit like smoking or drinking, nagging sure does not help to bring healing.
At such times one may tend to feel when and how her hubby will be saved or set free from habits he's addicted to.
Or the husband may be a believer and may be waiting for his spouse to be saved.
All one can do is trust in God, pray and be the 'light' God's called each of us His Children to be. Let's continue in our good deeds.
1 Timothy 6:18
Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.
1 PETER 2:12
Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.
Then God will surely move in His time.
Don't loose hope for you are worthy in His sight and He's concerned about all that concerns you.
He loves your spouse and kids more than you do and sure will answer the prayers of your heart.
He does not miss a single tear or the silent sigh.
Just hold on.
Each of us are worthy in God's sight!!
Be Blessed,
YSIC

W.O.R.T.H.
Whenever you are tempted to believe that you don't deserve love and faithfulness in your relationships, stop and remember your WORTH.
W - Women and men have the same Biblical standard: faithfulness. Expecting a man to be faithful in a love relationship is a reasonable request.
O - Only God can change your man and your relationship. Your nagging or wishful thinking isn't going to work. Pray, live respectfully and let God deal with your husband.
(see 1 Peter 3:1-2)
1Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2when they see the purity and reverence of your lives.
R - Raise the bar. Sometimes we confuse our self-worth with how others treat us. Instead of lowering the bar of expectations, taking what you can get in the love department, know that you are worthy of extravagant love - the kind of love that motivated Jesus to die for you.
T - Tell yourself that your identity in Christ makes you His precious, prized possession. Because you are created in His image and you belong to Him, you deserve love, respect and honor
H - He is faithful. God sees. Do what's right, regardless of what your husband does, and entrust yourself to God to make things right in the end.
(see 1 Peter 2:23)
23When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.
