Elizabeth George is one of many female authors that I read on a regular basis! She has some wonderful books that walk through the lives of great women in the Bible as well as others that detail the expectations of women as wives and mothers. Mrs. George writes very straighforwardly however, with great tact and care. One of my favorite books that she has done is "A Woman's High Calling". In this book, she outlines what she calls, "10 essentials for godly living". Among these, Godliness, Godly Speech, Personal Discipline (ok... the temptation is definitely there to skip this chapter but you can't!), Encouraging Others, and more....She has a unique way of teaching about the subject and the Biblical basis for her teachings, and then "fleshing out" the subject in the subsequent chapter. Her books are challenging and thought-provoking, but not difficult to read and understand.

"Every woman would love to replace a life of survival with a life of meaningful accomplishment"...Elizabeth George

If that is your desire today...make sure your time, priorities, lifestyle and habits depict this desire. Dedicate yourself to study that which is important, and God will give you more time in your day to get the things done that are on His to-do list for you! It is not easy - the Christian walk never is! Satan wants nothing more than for us to neglect our salvation (to not grow, not exercise and not care!). Are we cooperating?
