“Likewise, 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. Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to 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.” Titus 2:3-5

Dear God, I have deep gratitude for all the godly women you put in my life from my two grandmothers to my daughters-in-law. Of course, my mother and my wife have been the greatest blessing. Each woman with their reverent way of serving their husbands and families has taught me by example what faith, obedience, love and service looks like. I’ve learned reverence from them. Reverence is living with moment to moment knowledge that you created me, gave me my place in life, that you bless me with family and opportunities to serve and that you watch my every move hoping to see me return worship and praise to you in how I serve others with a happy heart. Thank you for giving me a mother and many other godly women who have taught me this reverence. In their honor I will live as a willing servant today the way that they do. Amen.

Godly women change the world and make it a better place for everyone.
