FOR Ms. H from JULES

I would like to encourage you. Don't let your circumstances get you down. I have some dear friends. The wife and I met the Lord Jesus about the same time. Her husband was a US Air Force pilot who spent a lot of time in the Officers Club and did not care at all about Jesus. His wife saw the verses below and began to stand on them and to love and serve her husband. At first it annoyed him but while he was in Vietnam on a tour of duty it began to work on him and he came back a born again man. She also tried to live Proverbs 31 about a virtuous woman. We both also have had members of our families saved just from watching us walk with the Lord.

"Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear.  Do not let your adornment be merely outward; arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel; rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.  For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands, as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are not afraid with any terror." 1Peter 3:1 -6
