Accept and Act

written 20 March 2010

This line jumped out at me: We believe as we come to accept and act upon these values, we will be prepared to strengthen home and family...

So, first...

Accept
1 a : to receive willingly
2 : to give admittance or approval to
3 a : to endure without protest or reaction b : to regard as proper, normal, or inevitable c : to recognize as true : believe
4 a : to make a favorable response to b : to agree to undertake

Using these definitions, accept is GOOD!

Act
1 a : the doing of a thing : deed b : something done voluntarily
4 : the process of doing : action
8 : a display of affected behavior : pretense

Acting on what has been Accepted shows my Faith in Christ.

So the Values I ACCEPT as a Daughter of God are:
Faith • Divine Nature • Individual Worth • Knowledge • Choice and Accountability • Good Works • Integrity • and Virtue

And in turn they help me "be prepared to strengthen home and family".

WOW!

I SO see the fit of Y.W. and R.S.
