'Return of the Daughters'

We recently had 10 to 15 families over to our house to view 'Return of the Daughters' a documentary about biblical relationships between fathers and daughters. It talks about how daughters are to be under their fathers authority until they get married. Also, daughters staying busy and productive under their fathers tutelage.
It was a great time to be with other believers to study God's word! It was somewhat new ground to everyone and a new look or light onto what biblical father/daughter relationships should look like! I personally, had a Great time with all the other young ladies there in discussing the movie and what their thoughts were. The Lord is SO good... we had been fasting and praying (prior to that Friday night) that the Lord would bring who He wanted and would touch the hearts of the families that came!
I think there were families there that night who went away with a new vision and a new mind! It was great! Again! the Lord is SO good!
Psalm 144: 12-15 "That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; That our daughters may be as pillars sculptured in palace style... Happy are the people who are in such a state; Happy are the people whose God is the Lord!"

"For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd of your souls"

Here is just a couple of verses that I read in my Bible this morning that really struck me!
1 Peter 2:9-10 .
"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy."
It's like we've been adopted into a rich family! =) He has loved us, called us His own, and given us eternal life even though we don't deserve it! The Lord is Amazingly good! Praise the Lord!
Also, 1 Peter 2:15-16
"FOR THIS IS THE WILL OF GOD, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men- as free, yet not using liberty as a cloak for vice, but as bondservants of God. Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king."
=D
I will (Lord willing) honor the King with my words, actions, and thoughts! May the Lord be Praised!!!
