11 | The TRUTH About Living A Soft Life


Listen Later

šŸ’…šŸ¾ Are you living a soft life?

The world has been buzzing about soft living the past couple of years, and as a woman of Yah it’s my duty to examine the narratives being pushed in front of me. In this episode I take a look at what exactly a ā€œsoft lifeā€ entails through a biblical lense.

ā˜šŸ¾The TRUTH About Living A Soft Life

* Adopt the Bible’s version of Femininity: is understanding that you are not your own, and that you answer to authority (the man and Yah). This is not just about you submitting but it’s also about the fact that you have the right to be covered, cherished, protected and cared for by the man.

* 1 Corinthians 11:3 gives us a hierarchy of authority

1 Corinthians 11: 3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

* Ephesians 5:21-33 speaks about submission as being a characteristic of both women and men. V. 22 speaks directly to the woman but v. 23-29 speak in details directly to the man. V. 30-33 speak to both again.

Ephesians 5:21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

* A soft life takes hard work: You are going to go through things that challenge your faith, and how you respond makes all the difference.

* Soft is subjective: My version of a soft life may not look like yours and that’s FINE.

Philippians 4:11-13 - Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
