Sunday, September 21

Women should likewise be . . . moderate in habits, faithful in all things.—1 Tim. 3:11.

 

We are amazed at how quickly a child grows into an adult. This growth seems to take place automatically. However, growing to Christian maturity is by no means automatic. (1 Cor. 13:11;Heb. 6:1) To reach that goal, we need a deep personal relationship with Jehovah. We also need his holy spirit as we cultivate godly qualities, develop practical skills, and prepare for future responsibilities. (Prov. 1:5) Jehovah made humans to be male or female. (Gen. 1:27) Obviously, men and women are physically different, but they are different in other ways as well. For example, Jehovah made men and women to fulfill specific roles, so they need qualities and skills that will help them to carry out their respective assignments.—Gen. 2:18. w23.12 18 ¶1-2

Christian maturity isn’t automatic — it’s crafted. Like muscle under weight, women grow strong by cultivating godly qualities, steady habits, and faithful hearts, ready for every assignment Jehovah designed them to carry.

In time ... we all become greater than our own weight in gold when we place ourselves under our Heavenly Father's care.
