Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord." Notice where this sentence sits. It comes…Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord." Notice where this sentence sits. It comes right after forgiveness, after love, after "let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts." And the very next line tells husbands not to be bitter. Nothing here is permission to dominate. It is all one fabric, and Christ is the thread.

The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?
The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation." Notice Peter proves it with Noah and Lot, two…The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation." Notice Peter proves it with Noah and Lot, two men who were not spared the flood or the fire, only carried through it. Deliverance looked like an ark and an angel's grip on the hand. God knows how. You may not recognize the rescue while it is happening.
Father, you see clearly and you play no favorites. That comforts me when I'm wronged, and it humbles me when…Father, you see clearly and you play no favorites. That comforts me when I'm wronged, and it humbles me when I'm the one doing wrong. Keep me honest about my part. Let me live knowing nothing is hidden and nothing is overlooked.
Thank You for telling Jeremiah ahead of time that Hanamel would come asking him to buy the field in Anathoth.…Thank You for telling Jeremiah ahead of time that Hanamel would come asking him to buy the field in Anathoth. You speak into ordinary business, deeds and fields and family duty, and You give the right of redemption. Nothing in my week is too small for Your word.
Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you?" God isn't scolding your tears. He's asking…Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you?" God isn't scolding your tears. He's asking what you think they prove. You feel abandoned, counselorless, undone. But Micah calls this pain labor, not dying. Something is being born in you. And your King never once left the room.

He says move it: "lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume." Moths work quietly. Rust takes years. Much of what you're guarding is already dissolving in your hands, slowly, without a sound. And your heart will follow wherever you make the deposit.
