The Kingdom of heaven is also the work of the Spirit, the work of Christ, our stewardship being transformed. What would a man being purified look like to a woman or a child? Would he be dangerous or deceiving, or a refuge and trustworthy? We are not perfected in Christ till death if everyday is an opportunity for the choice between the flesh and the Spirit but we can grow in humility, honesty, in trusting Christ, our godly relationships, walking by the Spirit to lead us into deeper intimacy and maturity so that our compassion and our hearts are changing for needs around us. When men are willingly submitting their weaknesses to Christ and seeking to follow him, women and children benefit.  

How can we, not being done with our transformation, be the worshipers, learners, friends, citizens, servants who protect, build, sacrifice, speak the truth in love for the women and children around us?  

How do we help the widow or empower the sisterhood of women around us to become the spiritual daughters and spiritual mothers that Christ and the Spirit destined them to become?  

How do we help the orphan and the child to grow in wisdom and in stature (whole body, soul and spirit), in favor with God and man (Luke 2:52)?
