Dogs, Church, Park

I'm sad this evening because my husband determined that we are not in a position to foster a dog. He thinks I will try to keep every dog we bring home. We are renters and we move a lot, and he is concerned that we won't find a rental when we move again. I feel … Continue reading Dogs, Church, Park

Benefits of Headcovering

God has called me to wear headcovers. I strive to wear them whenever I go out and frequently when I'm in the house as well. I take them off to eat because I don't want to accidentally drop anything on one, and sometimes I take them off when I'm with my dogs so that they … Continue reading Benefits of Headcovering

Many Are Invited, Few Are Chosen

For the first time, I really realize how important the parable of the wedding banquet is. A man who does not have wedding clothes is spotted at a wedding celebration (and he had already declined to attend),and cast outside where there is gnashing of teeth. Then Jesus says "Many are invited, few are chosen." If … Continue reading Many Are Invited, Few Are Chosen

Be Sexually Available to Your Spouse

Somehow, it has become controversial even among some "Christian" women to say that when your husband wants to have sex with you, you should say yes. Scripture says, "Do not deny yourselves to each other, unless you first agree to do so for a while in order to spend your time in prayer; but then … Continue reading Be Sexually Available to Your Spouse

I Have an Idea

Maybe this has been done already, but pages of Googling have not turned up anything quite like what I'm thinking of. What if there was some sort of monastic group for Christian writers and artists? I mean an order you can join without leaving family responsibilities, like the Order of Saint Patrick. But this would … Continue reading I Have an Idea

Moving, Angel, Vacation

This week I found out we will be moving sooner than I expected. I will really miss this house by the ocean, our cute neighborhood, and my friend C. Moving is never easy. It's especially hard on children. I know my daughter will miss all her friends here. Yesterday there was an awards ceremony at … Continue reading Moving, Angel, Vacation

Submission is Beautiful

So many people are against submission because feminism and rebelling against the Bible are so popular. Many women who find my Instagram assume I am dumb and abused. When I first married my husband, submission was not a part of my life. My husband even told me he wanted to leave "obey" out of our … Continue reading Submission is Beautiful

The Job My Father Missed Out On – a Story About God and Waiting

When I was in 5th grade, my father retired from the military. We lived in a small town I loved, and my friends were there who I wanted to go to middle school with. I was broken hearted about having to leave housing and move. Then my father was told about a job locally that … Continue reading The Job My Father Missed Out On – a Story About God and Waiting

Radical, Sweet Softness

I have decided to embrace a radical softness. I want to be serene, gentle, and sweet. No more harboring anger or getting stressed out or being impatient. Obviously I don't mean the feminist form of radical softness. I don't believe in toxic masculinity for starters, and furthermore, this is all about femininity. I want to … Continue reading Radical, Sweet Softness

Cleaning Schedule

I am thinking of creating a more solid cleaning schedule. As it stands, I just do things as I can when they need to be done - like picking up before my husband gets home, cooking dinner, or mopping floors. But a schedule might help me keep the house extra clean and inspire me to … Continue reading Cleaning Schedule
