Would you be friends with yourself if you had a person speak to you the way you speak to yourself?
Both my husband and I remember words that stuck to us that were spoken years ago. Let's lift one another up, WORDS MATTER...
This is a fascinating video. Please feel free to mute the music at the bottom of the page.
Fall is here, I love the pic below it reminds me of our sweet little doglet, Minnie Pearl who passed away several years ago this time of year. I loved her and still do. She looked very much if almost exactly like this sweet doggie.
~Photo by ClassicstockI hope you all are enjoying this most beautimous fall weather....My daughters and I had a delightful day today, they took me out to enjoy desert and coffee at the historical district. Wowee! So fun!
We now shall dine on Chicago pizza artfully made by my 27 year old daughter, hope to post that recipe one day on thats-italian.blogspot.com along with my 25 year old's molasses cookies and just all kinds of goodness. Yes indeedie.
Edit: 11.10.10 I haven't been able to seize that Molasses cookie or the pizza recipe yet, but I do have some sweet do-able gift ideas there. : )
Enjoy your families and enjoy your homes. Be content in Jesus. Remember ladies, despite popular rumor even by some who are labeled "conservative" ... No we cannot do it all. God did not make us that way. I cannot believe feminists would have us to believe they are liberated? Liberated? Looks like bondage to me. Oh the lies of the enemy of our souls to so many women! Just. Say. No.
It is NOT neanderthal to know a mother's place is in the home! Heaven forbid!
I think many of the lies started during WWII....Women buying the Rosie the Riveter Lie going to the factories to work leaving their children at home. I recently watched a secular series on Turner Classics station, and even back then, the secular documentary was sharing major concerns of latchkey children during WWII as mom left to work. So sad. It's interesting that back then, the secular media had more sense than much of the church today.
~Photo by ClassicstockSpeaking of wives and moms at home. Here is a recent series on Time Management. The author is featured on Dave Ramsey. She and her husband have been married for 8 years, have 3 children and lived on $35. weekly for groceries while her husband was in law school, having babies in diapers.
One of my favorite mom blogs is Life As Mom. The author of the blog is very nice, and gives many opportunities for moms to share their thoughts and ideas along with a wealth of recipes and money saving ideas too.
One thing I realized years ago....No lack of a vehicle was worth me leaving my precious little girls to work. What for? To have a car? Ridiculous.
Let's see, some think we are supposed to go to work to afford the nice car to get to work to pay for the upper end house they never are home to live in; leaving their children in part-time orphanages.
Just some serious food for thought. : )
This is all said to encourage moms to think and not buy the lie...it's not ever meant to bring any condemnation to single mothers.
Here is an encouraging site that will encourage single moms, an amazing testimony and ebook: here. This lady was a single mom making only $500. per month.
Be blessed be good! You are made to be wonderful in Christ! ~Amelia
