by Tiffany S. from Virtuous Daughters, April/May 2017~Volume 17, Number 1 Dear Sisters,
…One of my prayers for this year was that I would enjoy sweet fellowship with the Lord in His Word. One way I hoped to do that was by reading through the Bible chronologically....my sweet brother surprised me with a chronological Bible as a New Year’s gift! It has been such an exciting journey as I have learned many beautiful lessons and truly enjoyed spending time with the Lord. A few things He has shown me thus far.... by Samaiah from Virtuous Daughters, April/May 2017~Volume 17, Number 1 My dear young lady So full of dreams; (I’m also full of them, too!) If you truly desire Your dreams to come true, You’ve got to stop wishing, and do. You say to yourself, Quite often in fact, “I’m good at such-and such. One day when I’m older And all grown up, It’ll surely amount to so much.” But, alas, dear girl! Life is too short, And now is the time to do. Don’t wait till you’re grown Or too sickly to serve NOW is the time for you! When your life is near over, And you’re weary and worn; Let there be no regrets back. And say to yourself, “I’ve nothing to mourn, I’ve always ben busy on track. “The Lord was at work In all of my days. No one despised of my youth. His grace is sufficient No matter our age And this is a timeless truth.” by Julia from Virtuous Daughters, August/September 2020~Volume 20, Number 3 How often does God answer a specific prayer and you rejoice over it? Maybe your excitement bubbles into a desire to tell everyone you know of the amazing work of God in your life by answering that prayer. How many times have you faced something big and suddenly your faith-o-meter plummets?
“This is impossible,” you may think.... Of course, we know God will never fail us, but even if we do not directly admit it to ourselves, our thought patterns can reflect this false belief. It is easy to grow discouraged. What can we do to avoid this pitfall? Remember. by Tiffany S. from Virtuous Daughters, October 2019~Volume 19, Number 4 Many of the points outlined in this article were gleaned from a sermon by my pastor titled "Render Surrender."
I am thankful for his faithful proclamation of God's truth! by Tiffany S. from Virtuous Daughters, May 2013~Volume 13, Number 2 "I love the LORD,
because He hath heard my voice and my supplications." —Psalm 116:1 by Amanda from Virtuous Daughters, May 2015~Volume 15, Number 2 What do you think are the most desired qualities in a wife and mother? That she can cook a mouth-watering roast? Or bake up scrumptious scones? Or maybe keep the home neat as a pin? Maybe running a household of ten smoothly? Or maybe being able to knit a cardigan, teach seven homeschoolers, and feed the baby all at the same time?! All these skills are wonderful and would be greatly appreciated by a husband :), but the most important thing as we prepare to be a godly wife and mother is…
our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. by Tiffany S. from Virtuous Daughters, April 2013~Volume 13, Number 1 I was sorting some paperwork and ran across my sermon notes from a series of messages preached by my pastor about “Five Crossroads of the Christian Life.” One of those crossroads was Satisfaction—Giving Thanks. I thought perhaps the following thoughts from the sermon would be an encouragement:

by Tiffany S. from Virtuous Daughters, December 2019/January 2020~Volume 19, Number 5 "It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn Thy statutes."
Psalm 119:71 Trials. That simple word brings to your mind something real and personal that you have walked through in the past or are currently experiencing right now. Whether your trial is acknowledged by many who know you or remains private to you and the Lord, you know what that trial is, for "every heart knows its own bitterness" (Proverbs 14:10). by Emily from Virtuous Daughters, February 2009~Volume 8, Number 11 Have you ever wondered what true contentment is? According to the dictionary, it means having a mind at peace, being satisfied and undisturbed—quietness. What a wonderful state of mind that sounds like! As born-again Christians, we know that no one can truly be satisfied apart from Jesus Christ! Let us turn to the Bible, and see what that most important Book has to say about our subject. There are four verses, in particular, that stand out to me.
