This LOVE teaching is so much of an eye opener for me. We were taught about how to be a fair lady in order to become a woman of God and it made me realize a lot of things.
Before the teaching, I always thought that being a Godly woman only means being prayerful, spiritually healthy and being decent both in words and in actions... but it is way more than that. In order to fully become a woman of God, we should first see ourselves the way God sees us, His Masterpiece. Knowing and believing that we are God's masterpiece and we are created with an important reason will help us understand how we should treat ourselves and to see ourselves as an expensive creation of God. If a vase was bought at a cheap price, if it got smashed or lost, the buyer will not be regretful thinking that it was only a cheap one, HOWEVER, if a vase was bought at a high price, the buyer will always be careful about that vase because it costs a lot and will not be able to get another one easily. This can also be applied to how we hold ourselves as a woman of God.
Another thing that I learned was, we should not let the world dictate how we should act or see ourselves, INSTEAD, we should keep our eyes on God and our truth should always be His truth. The world may say being beautiful depends on your size, color, age, talent or status but the bible says we are more precious than jewels. This LOVE teaching also reminded us that if we put God first and live for Him, He Himself will send a Godly man our way, someone who will treat and love us equivalent to how God sees us... a masterpiece and His princess.
But my favorite realization is that, being loved is not always about having a romantic relationship. It made me reflect on how much love I have in my life. God loves me that's why He gave me life and because of His love for me He placed me in a beautiful, complete and happy family who serve and worship Him and since God's love is endless, He made sure I'll never stop feeling loved so He surrounded me with good friends. He gave me a lot of open doors and I feel like I already have EVERYTHING I need, but God's love is the greatest love of all so He gave me more... my SFC FAMILY. He made sure I won't drown in the burden of being the eldest one in our family that He introduced me to a multiple ATEs and KUYAs. There are times that I get insecure about my age around them, sometimes I feel like maybe I don't belong in this family yet, but every time I look my SFC sisters and brothers in the eyes, I feel accepted and loved. They always make me feel like a part of the family even if I just knew them and Im younger making me see this community one of God's greatest blessing. This LOVE teaching opened my eyes about my worth, about how I should be treated and most importantly, if God is in my life, I will always be LOVED.
May God Be Praised!
