Who is my Elizabeth?

Who is my Elizabeth?

When Mary, was given the biggest news of her life, she had no husband to confide in.  Her first instinct after her visit from the angel of the Lord was to immediately go out and seek Godly counsel from her cousin Elizabeth.  
Mary didn't waste any time, she went with haste.
As a Christian woman, who is your Elizabeth? Who do you rush to in a hurry? Who do you seek for your Godly counsel? If you don't have an Elizabeth of your very own, ask God to put one in your life. Below are a few characteristics to look for in your Elizabeth.
Your Elizabeth should:
•​Have a steadfast walk with the Lord.
•​Give Godly counsel in truth and love.
•​Encourage you in your walk in faith.
•​Encourage you in your marriage, studies, career and relationships.
•​Be someone whom you desire to learn from.
•​Pray for you and encourage you when you are down and out with life stress.
•​Rejoice in your successes.
•​See your God-given gifts and encourage you to use them.
 
Your Elizabeth should not:
•​Gossip with others about things you have shared.
•​Disrespect your partner or family.
•​Remind you of past failures, or make fun of your shortcomings.
•​Pull you away from others.
•​Discourage you from serving the Lord.
•​Be in competition with you, or insecure in your achievements.
•​Your Elizabeth should not take the Glory of God for herself by saying I prayed for her that's why she is driving this car or that's why she has gotten that job.
 
Take a moment  and ask yourself, "Who is my Elizabeth?" And am I an Elizabeth to someone?

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...
