    2. The time for talk is over
    3. Their life can show the reality of Christ
  2. A WOMAN'S MINDSET IS HER MOST BEAUTIFUL FEATURE
    1. Adornment is not external
    2. The redeemed heart is her most beautiful feature
    3. Gentle and quiet
    4. Very precious win God’s sight. God is watching!
  3. A WOMAN'S MODELS ARE FOUND IN THE GODLIEST WOMEN
  1. Holy women of old (Sarah, Rebecca, Leah, and Rachel
  2. Submitted voluntarily
  3. Sarah called Abraham Lord (Genesis 18:12)
  4. You are her children
  5. No fear

What about you?

  1. Live in a way that shows the excellency of Christ.
  2. Make sure your inner person is more taken care of than your outer person.
  3. Submission puts you in a position of God’s Protection.
