4. I WILL SEEK OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE IN CHRIST’S NAME. Luke 4:18-19 I believe that God desires to draw all people into a loving, redeeming relationship with Him. My desire is to serve where I can, using my gifts wherever I see a need.
5. I WILL HONOR MY BODY AS THE TEMPLE OF GOD. ICorinthians 6:19-20 Following the example of Christ, I will keep my body healthy and strong, avoiding temptations and destructive personal vices.

I will strive to forgive as Christ forgives me.
As we continue the study Of the 21st Century Woman of God, let us look at what we might consider "being in bondage" is in our own lives. The Israelites were in bondage because they would not submit to God's way.
