Take this day to catch up on your reading, pray, and rest in the presence of the Lord.
“You are to be holy to me because I, the LORD, am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be mine.”
—Leviticus 20:26

What a beautiful memory and what a testimony of her faithfulness to God.
I am who god says I am
When I was growing up my grandma would stay with us for a week when she visited from Florida. I knew she read her Bible bright and early every morning so I would wake up early and sneak downstairs and snuggle up in bed with her and she would read out loud to me. Her Bible was divided into daily readings so that you could read the Bible in a year. She reads it everyday so she’s been through the Bible many times. I loved that time with her.
Thank you Lord for calling me “your’s”!

I am holy and set apart because God says I am. This isn’t a feeling, but a reality of who I am in him. ❤️
Praise the Lord for His Holiness. And we are the extension of Him, the clay vessels that carry the treasure (GOD). Thank you Rhonda for the update. I will continue to pray for your grandkids. I want to encourage to share your faith through your stories. My grandmother was the ONLY one who planted the seed of faith in me when I was around 12 or so. About the same age with your grand son (May God bless his heart). I too was staying with grandma a week at a time during summer break. And she would share stories of her struggling, during war, raising a family of 7 kids (my mom was one of them), living through lack, and she mentioned this ….faith in God rescued her. She was of Catholic faith and nobody else on both my mom and my dad’s sides ever told me about faith. None. But one grandma. And she advised me then if I have problems that no one would hear, write it down in a diary and address it to God. I was into diaries at that age. She told me to write letters to God (kinda like Santa letter idea) and it was intriguing to me. None of my parents were Christians but that very seed of my Grandma’s faith was a firm foundation. A light to a kid’s loneliness and emotions bottled up. To this day I still write letters to God on notebooks and record His conversations (answers, directions) on papers ❤️. I read them ofren. I cherish those notebooks. It records His faithfulness and my shaky moments.
The weather today was hot for us too but praise God we just got some rain and thunders suddenly. I love the rain which is so rare in Alberta Canada. My garden and flower containers were nicely watered. Praising God for sending rain to the earth, and just like His Word, none will return void but fulfil that which He is pleased. Hallelujah. Have a blessed weekend everyone.❤️
Amen
Reflecting on the idea that while God had set His people apart , that we should be separate from the world , (in the world not of it), that it dies not mean that we should be isolated, but yet connected to others who have been “set apart” I think that the last couple of years had created a disconnected both in our world as well as within the church. We can thank Covid restrictions and social media for that I think…and, it can often feel lonely as we align our lives to live as God has called us to live, finding that we have less in common with our friends that are not pursuing the same path . I was encouraged to be reminded that we are not set apart to be alone, but set apart to realign our lives with Gods church … like all you lovely ladies !
Amen ❤️
Amen!!!!
Holiness. Being called to holiness is being called to God. Sifted and separated. Undeserving, yet standing before Jesus who made me holy. By His blood, washed clean by the sacrifice of His atonement. There is holiness here, in my home this morning as I worship, study the holy Scriptures, and praise my King. Reading Leviticus this morning brought a new kind of beauty and revelation to my heart. I see the cleansing rituals differently now. These descriptive, difficult to imagine ways to be made clean for God are defining God’s people by how to live set apart (holy). It was hard. Then Jesus changed the rules. He opened the way for us to encounter God. God now makes His people holy through Jesus Christ. We are His sacred space, His holy temple. No building or little “c” church should define how we speak or act. We are His Church. Jesus has transformed us into new creatures, reflecting His holiness no matter where we are. We are His messengers. We are His. No other blood sacrifices required to approach our Father for direction, forgiveness, comfort, or joy. “It is finished” (Jesus’ final words on the cross). We are set apart (holy) and separated from the darkness of evil, and the Holy Spirit gives us the wisdom and knowledge of how to live and love well now until He returns. Selah. Maranatha. Amen.
Good Morning She’s. Another gorgeous Saturday. A little too hot for some, but I love it! Thank you you Kelly (NEO). I really appreciate. Ironically when I showed up to work yesterday, even though we were very short staffed, it was a VERY good day!
Thankful that our holiness and righteousness is because of His mercy and good purpose, not of ourselves ❤️
This verse from Leviticus is an AWE-INSPIRING verse. I’ve been wanting to do a study on Leviticus and learn more about the laws, ordinances, and commandments God wants us to obey. I wonder if that’s in the future for a She Reads Truth study.
Sisters be blessed and “go tell it on the mountain” and shout it from the hilltops about our Savoir Christ Jesus.
Amen ❤️❤️
I love that you learned to read your Bible every morning from watching your mama and now you’re passing that heritage to your grandchildren! ❤️
To be holy takes action on my part. Lord help me to surrender my heart to You to be holy on this earth which is filled with distractions .
Amen! Have a blessed weekend all you she’s.❤️
Rhonda J — thank you for sharing. I love that song you mentioned, by Maverick City.
It is beautiful your desire to help your grandchildren. The prayers you pray and the seeds you sow are making a lasting impact. I don’t even have kids, yet I am constantly praying for the generations that may come from my body. The work you are doing is so important to the Lord. Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due time, you will reap if you do not give up!!! Galatians 6:9 :)
God bless your faithfulness and may your family see your faith and model it. <3
Good Mornings She’s! Whew, Happy Saturday! Our grandkids were with us all week, and left last night, so it’s been good, but a tiring week! They did know that Roro reads her bible every morning which made me smile when they said as much! After all that’s how I came to read my bible every morning because my mother did and after she passed I knew I should! That was 8 years ago. Also they remembered that we say Grace before eating and I was kinda shocked (in a good way!) by the wonderful little prayer that came out of my 9-year-old! She even wanted to say it again over breakfast with her friend here! We had a talk about the Bible (they both really had no clue about it) and how it is God’s word.
The 14-year-old, Brayden, still struggles with his parents but it helped him staying with us for the vacation time and them having their separate house, we had some good talks about him being able to talk to God when he feels like no one understands.
I just wanted to share since the week’s study was about our faith and how we can share the gospel and encourage and inspire others. I find it most hard to bring up the topic with unbelievers, but trying to be bolder in the upside-down world. I know many of us fear for our children and grands to not be lost. I might have mentioned it last week, but there’s a song by Brandon Lake (with Maverick City and Elevation) “Talking to Jesus.” That song reminds me of the impact that we can have with our kids watching us. And also while we were reading about waiting on the Lord, the song “Wait On You” played which is another great song by Maverick City. “Don’t You Give Up On Me” is good as well for you who love music.
It was so great to see so many comments this week and so many She’s from all over the world! So encouraging to me that there are so many women wanting to learn and be in God’s word daily! Let’s keep shining the light and changing the tide in our households, communities, friendships, and the world!!
Good Morning- Thinking about what it means to be set apart and how I should view my children and husband in such a light. – such reassuring thoughts from our grace giving God.
Blessed to be set apart. Father God, help me to be holy as you are holy.
Thank You, Lord for setting me apart. May I remember that as one set apart, I have a mission and purpose.
Shes I hope you are prayerfully considering contributing to the illumiNations drive to end the Bible famine in the world.
HEIDI V – thanking God for your “wild hair” report :-)
MARI V – may the Lord give you wisdom about your job.
