Discipline

"Train yourself to be godly"
(I Timothy 4:7b)


 My accountability group of awesome ladies is going through Barbara Hughes' Disiplines of a Godly Woman... first chapter in, and I'm hooked.



"O God, fill my soul with so entire a love of Thee that I may love
nothing but for Thy sake and in subordination to Thy love. Give
me grace to study Thy knowledge daily that the more I know
Thee, the more I may love Thee. Create in me a zealous obedience
to all Thy commands, a cheerful patience under all Thy chastisements
and a thankful resignation to all Thy disposals. Let it be
the one business of my life to glorify Thee by every word of my
tongue, by every work of my hand, by professing Thy truth, and
by engaging all men, so far as in me lies, to glorify and love Thee"
(John Wesley, Hughes 14)
