Motherhood is a beautiful, honorable thing. My own mother has demonstrated this in how she cared for my siblings and me. There are so many women, including single mothers who excel in motherhood. They aren’t perfect, but they do the best they can do to raise boys to be noble men, girls to be noble women. I have no experience as an actual mother. However, I learn about motherhood from the Bible and from observing...
This post is inspired by a conversation I was involved in recently. The conversation showed me the opinions of people who are also propagating false information based on those opinions. They are sharing false information to both men and women. It is the same false information that has been planted in the minds of people long ago. It is a double standard. People have a right to have their own views. I respect that. But...
…as they say, and according to my interpretation of 1 Corinthians 13: 4 -7. Actions speak volumes. I want to talk about love, because the word love is often slandered. Some women have admitted that as girls, they witnessed their mothers being abused and they thought the abuse was love. It is all they knew at the time. I hear statements like “love hurts” or “love is dangerous.” If love does hurt, this could be...
I sympathize with women because of the many difficulties plenty have in their relationships. I cannot identify with witnessing physical abuse between my parents. I cannot identify with girls who have grown up watching their mothers bringing different men in and out of the house or those who have a father that cheated on their mother. Seeing dysfunction in the home as a girl can normalize it for some. Some girls witness all kinds of...
There are still people out there who show love, kindness and generosity to others. Their light seems more and more bright as the rest of the world becomes darker. We live in a world where plenty others operate out of hatred. This post will address what I am seeing around me- increasing hate against women inside and outside of the churches. For this reason, dating and relationships are more difficult than ever. Especially, for women....
No one is ready made. When someone meets the right person, that person will be flawed just like anybody else. They won’t be perfect, but are the perfect person for the one they are suited for. Healthy relationships consist of imperfect, compatible people who happen to love and respect each other. Typically, they will be attracted to each other and have a significant amount of things in common. Shared faith / core values are very...
This message is not for everyone, except those who can receive it. I say this because I do not try to force my beliefs on people who do not believe the way I do. I truly respect the fact that not everybody is a Christian. Still, this post is not only for women who profess to be Christians, but also is general advice and pointers for ladies of any belief and value system who are...
I admit I am offended some of the time. If it is not one stressful person or situation, then it is another that has me concerned. Although I may feel offended at any time, I do not want to develop a default state of being offended. There are odd and bad vibes I get from some people. Spiritual warfare is all around. Both family and friends are involved in the discord. There are times I...
This post is to give encouragement to make decisions that will not only be pleasing to God, but will make life less stressful and less complicated. I see the pain, I see the hurt. I have witnessed the heartache, stress and how hard life can be when consequences come for decisions made. I understand that not everybody is a follower of Jesus Christ. I speak based on my own belief in God and His ways....
