Here is an excellent and practical book, written by Elizabeth George. She shares her discoveries with answers from God’s Word concerning a woman’s priorities and purpose in life. It is like an expanded version of Luke 2:52: ‘And Jesus grew in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and man.’ I like the life management topics covered in this book and I hope you will find useful and practical help for your life:
Managing Your Spiritual Life
Managing Your Physical Life
Managing Your Home Life
Managing Your Financial Life
Managing Your Social Life
Managing Your Mental Life
Managing Your Ministry Life
Managing Your Time and Your Life
Here is an excerpt from Chapter One, Developing a Passion for God’s Word, on how to put priority in God’s Word:
‘Three Simple Steps. Here’s a little three-step method that helps us tend to first things first … no matter how busy we are.
1. Time is first on the list. Decide on time spent in God’s Word is time well spent.
2. First Time. Aim at giving the first minutes of each day reading God’s Word.
3. Early Time. Begin early taking the examples from Abraham, David and Jesus.’
Discover God’s guidelines for each of these areas as you check out this book from the Resource Library. You can also look out for other titles by Elizabeth George, also available in the library:
1. A Woman’s After God’s Own Heart
2. A Woman’s High Calling
3. Loving God with All Your Mind
