The ladies start gathering for another wonderful service together. We had a couple of guests with us, Pastor Hoxworth's wife, Bev was here as well as Bishop Malcolm's wife Margaret also was with us in service. Margaret leads the RMA ladies ministry in London England as well.
Role Models of America has several church services designed especially for women and their needs through out the year. And I have to tell you that every lady who attends enjoys herself! It's always a special time of prayer and praise, encouragement and an timely word spoken into every life. My heart goes out to the women who work so very hard for their families. Working full time at a job, keeping all the responsibilities of the workplace going, then come home and work another full time job keeping the home place together as well as their families taken care of. 2 simple sentences written here, cannot describe the enormous workloads they all do everyday. So this service held every is important for their support.
We have a good women's band - who regretfully I did not get a picture of to show you! We had a great time of worship with the Ensemble too.
This particular service is designed for the daughters of Role Models to lead out on..... it's time for the next generation to begin to start helping in our RMA events.
Kari plays and sings a song she wrote. She is the daughter of Role Model Carla, and her song was about standing in faith no matter what life looks like around her. A good message for every mom to hear. 
The daughter of Role Model Cressie - Christi also sang a meaningful song about being in a war and how we push onward. Spiritually - these two songs led up to the Word which was to come....
Then another daughter of Role Model Carolyn - Tiffany had created a power point presentation to the song - Lay M Down. And it seemed every thing fit together preparing the hearts of the women and girls for what was to come.
Announcements were made by Role Models about the coming events this Fall. Our Craft day is in September, and the RMA Fall Festival is in October. Two big days coming that we are all excited about. We spent a little time revealing what all is going to be happening.
Then my own daughter Angela, who is a Role Model herself, brought the Word to us and wow did she ever minister! Her sermon was called, 'No one ask me'.
She had us all laughing and laughing and laughing! But the word was powerful and so needed. It was about the women in the Word who were not ask if they wanted to participate in what was happening. Here is just a tiny part of what she preached about.
Noah’s wife was not asked to be a part
of this holiday cruise. In fact she is only mentioned twice: she doesn’t even
have a name
But
I will establish My covenant with you; and you shall enter the ark-- you and
your sons and your wife, and your sons' wives with you
Gen
6:18
She
by culture standards did not have a choice in her life – no one asked her if
she wanted to
·
Help build a boat for 100+ years
·
Live in a boat for 120 days and night
·
Handle and live with as many as 5000 species of animals
·
Clean up after all those animals
Maybe
she was not handling it well ?
Maybe
that’s why she was practically left out of one of the best known bible stories?
King David’s
Mother
Nothing
is said about David’s mother
I
have to suspect the David was deeply loved by his family the scriptures say he
was a fine looking child and he was her last born son – her baby
When
Samuel came to anoint the next king of Israel – David was either sent/hidden in
the fields with the sheep, was this a protective mother trying to keep her last
baby home?
With
rumors of war and her knowing her other sons were going
Did
she have a horrible attitude about not being asked, is this why she was not
written into the story that is claimed to be the favorite bible story of most
children raised in the house of God
Moses Wife
Exo
2:21-22 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah
his daughter. And she bore him a son
She
has a name!!!!
She
was mentioned 4 times by name in the exodus
She
never was asked if she even want to marry the guy
Or if she wanted to go to Egypt and set a entire nation free.
Or if she minded plagues, people with attitudes or walking across entire countries.
Mary and Martha
They
were not asked if they wanted 12+ extra men for supper
Lazarus
as the man of the household would have made that decision
Martha
The
original Martha stewart
Multi
tasker
Take
charge
Choleric
Mary
Free
spirit
Go
with the flow
Get
to it in a second
Wants
to be in the center of excitement
Luke 10:38-42
A woman by the name of Martha welcomed him and made him feel quite
at home. She had a sister, Mary, who sat before the Master, hanging on every
word he said. But Martha was pulled away by all she had to do in the kitchen.
Later, she stepped in, interrupting them. "Master, don't you care that my
sister has abandoned the kitchen to me? Tell her to lend me a hand."
The Master said, "Martha, dear Martha, you're fussing far too
much and getting yourself worked up over nothing. One thing only is essential,
and Mary has chosen it—it's the main course, and won't be taken from her,
We are not sure how her attitude changed but – I can again only
imagine that it must have I can see her putting down her dish rag and pulling
up a chair
I
ask the question which attitude are you? Will be the worshiper or the worrier
The
one lost in the details or enjoying the moment
Ok
you weren’t asked if you wanted to lose your job, house, child, marriage
Ok
you weren’t asked if you wanted your spouse to die, friends to abandon you,
cancer to come in an destroy your life
But
its happened! What will you do.
Do
you clam up and blame everyone else
Do you throw a royal cross eyed fit
Or
do you take it the father, cry a little, get up dust off your knees and keep
walking
I
ask the question which attitude are you?
Will
you be the worshiper or the worrier
The
one lost in the details or enjoying the moment
No one asked you......but the Father has a plan that is unfolding and you are in it!
We had a wonderful time together!!!!
