I love these songs and so I just have to share my favorite one. Bring Him Home.

Godly Mothers = Blessings

Our Mothers are true blessings from God. We can go to mothers with anything that is on our minds. It doesn't matter if it is good or bad. God gave us mothers so we could learn from them and trust them. He gave us mothers so we could laugh and cry with them. To share our troubles and joys with. Mothers are special. They love, they care, and they are always ready to listen. Mothers are lovable because they love us, teach us good, and take care of us. They do their best to keep us from the worlds evil deeds. Our mothers know what is good for us and what isn't

So this Mothers Day I want you to remember your mother and why you love her. Remember the things she has and is doing for you. Remember why you love her. Don't just remember her this one day of the year, but forever and for always.

Thank you Almighty God for our Godly Mothers.

Happy Mothers Day Mothers! May God richly bless you!

College?

Ever since I have become old enough to make my own decisions (In worldly thinking) people have asked me what I would be going to do. They would make the question seem like a demand. The question would always catch me off my guard and I would side step it. I was afraid of what they would think of me if I told them what I stood for or why I wasn't going to college. I was ashamed of my belief and of what God wants godly woman to do. (Titus 2.3-5) In stead of giving in to these questions let us stand strong in what the bible tells us to do. It is a great opportunity to share with woman what the woman's biblical role is. It is difficult for me to find a way to say it nicely. The best way I have found so far is to answer the question: " So what are you going to do after you graduate?" with this answer: "I am going to stay home and learn how to be a Titus 2 woman". I usually do not have to say any more than that. And if they wonder what it says and what a Titus 2 woman is, then their God is leading them to the bible to read it. We should not answer worldly questions with worldly answers.

I am not saying college is completely wrong, but it is when you are pursuing worldly roles.

Young women if you are wanting to know what God wants you to do then it is to learn how to be a keeper-at-home. Also, do not believe the worldly lie that a stay-at-home-mom is a lazy person. She is one of the busiest women in this world and the most honored. She is the most honored, because of the wonderful blessing of children. They are her treasures and they honor her. (Pro.31:28)

People like to tell me that I need to got to college to be a good mom. They say that college is sooooo necessary. Let me tell you something college is NOT necessary. That degree people tell us we need in cases of an emergency, is not going to help us. Something that will help us is our God. Trust Him and He WILL provide.

Ladies, lets share our truth. Let us be proud to let people know what our God has told us to do.

Uncovered to Covered

It all started on the first Sunday we visited the Mennonite Church. I saw all the women had their heads covered. (1 Corinthians 11:1-15) As a christian woman did my God really want me to cover my head? When we came home I asked my Mom about the head covering and we started to study it together. The passage made it sound like we should cover our heads. But there was that last verse my unwilling heart wanted to stay focused on.

1 Corithians 11:16 (KJV) But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

We looked at other bible translations and it said the oppisite thing the other one had said. It said:

1 Cor. 11:16(NLT) But if anyone wants to argue about this, I simply say that we have no other custom than this, and neither do God’s other churches.

It was all confusing to my allready unwilling heart. It is like what Paul said: "My spirit is willing, but my flesh is week."We were still truly confused. While we were still searching, my mother came accross an artical that took that confusion away. They explained the last verse somewhat like this:

The custom which Paul is talking about is not the costum of the covered head but the uncoverd head.

Another thing is that back in Pauls day a woman with an uncovered head was not a good woman. So now that we new the truth we started to obey it. About a week or so later I got tired of wearing my hair covered. I didn't want it covered; I wanted to show it off. So I took my covering off. A few days past and during that time God was merciful to me. In my mind I kept hearing "Put the covering back on". It was so tenderly spoken. God was not angry with me, (He new I was week) but only kindly told me to put it back on. So I put the covering back on and He has forgiven my vanity. Praise be to Him who has mercy! Sometimes I still have trouble submitting. But I Think to myself, this is such a small sacrifice of vanity to what Christ sacrificed on calvary.

"He that is faithful in the least, shall be faithfull in much."

Trusting God

A few weeks ago I found my future wedding dress. It is absolutely gorgeous! I knew I was supposed to be trusting God about my future husband, but I was not doing it. Instead I was impatient for the time when I would meet him. I was afraid of becoming an old maid. Then I realized that if God had provided the dress, than He in his own good time would provide the man.

I have found that trusting God brings peace and contentment. I am content to now wait patiently for my future husband. It is not always easy to trust Jehovah for things we want to happen now. But, if you do trust God all the worry and anticipation about who your future husband will be will not be there or it will not be as bad. I am not saying it is wrong to wonder who he maybe- we all do that- what I am saying is that we need to trust the One who has our future in his hands. We cannot speed God up.

My friends, do not be afraid of being single all your life. I still struggle with that fear, but then I look at what a single woman can be to others. She can be a second mother to other peoples children so the mother can be doing a few fun tasks while you watch them. Her focus will be more on God than on her husband.

Now you can see the blessings marriage and singleness bring.We must trust God in all things. This is just one thing we can trust him in. Let us be able to say "thy will be done" through our lives. Let go of the dreams you had for your life and follow the plan God has laid down for you and don't follow the worlds lie of success. He is always in control.

Praise to Jehovah!

What is True Love?

True love is not about the feeling you get inside when you "fall in love with someone at first sight." Love is not what all the movies say it is. The Bible says:

"Love is patient. Love is kind. Love is not jealous. It does not sing its own praises. It is not arrogant. It is not rude. It doesn't think about itself. It is not irritable. It doesn't keep track of wrongs. It is not happy when injustice is done, but it is happy with the truth. Love never stops being patient, never stops believing, never stops hoping, never gives up. Love never comes to an end..."

- 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Love cares about people. It is self sacrificing. Love is not a feeling, it is the action of an obedient heart. Loving someone means you obey them, care for them, and not do wrong toward them. Its not always easy. Jesus' love was so very true and self sacrificing. It was so self sacrificing that he gave his life for the ones he chose. That is true love and how beautiful it is! He set the best example. We must love our siblings and parents.We must obey our parents cheerfully. And we must sacrifice our daily activities so we can do things with our siblings that we don't usually do. These things are things that show love.

True love also keeps the one you are dating pure. If you save your kiss for after your marriage than the temptation to lust deeper will not be so great. If you really love someone than you will protect him/her from the lust which satan wants you to fall into. He will use anything he can to take you farther from God. Protecting each other from each other is one of the greatest ways to show your love. Some people think you must "know" a person before you marry them. Others say they could no longer wait to show their "love" for each other so they kissed and fell into deeper sin. The love they are talking about is not love, it is lust.If you love someone so much that you feel you should show you love them then you can show your love by protecting yourself and the woman / man you are with not fall into deeper sin. Satan loves to say its time to show her your "love" to her/ him but what he is really telling you to do is sin. With God's help you can resist satan. You should always have someone with you to help keep you from sin. Protect the one you are with. Show them your love by protecting their purity. You can always love someone without falling into lust. Christ covers a multitude of sins and he will help you to resist temptations.

God be with you forever and ever.

What is a Virtuous Woman?

A virtuous woman is a woman who follows the commands God gave the woman in the bible. She does not go out and do the mans job. And if she does, the bible is being blasphemed. Unless she is helping her husband in his own business or in a family business because she is serving her family.

Titus 2:5 " To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands"(or father), "that the word of God be not blasphemed."

A virtuous woman is a woman who is trying to follow Christ and who is wanting others to see Christ in her. She is willing to help others and serve her family.

Proverbs 31:10-29 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. - 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. - 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. - 13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. - 14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. - 15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. - 16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. - 17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. - 18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. - 19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. - 20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. - 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet. - 22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. - 23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. - 24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. - 25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. - 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. - 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. - 28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. - 29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

Not only does the virtuous woman serve her family but she makes and sells things. She helps with the finances. She works willingly with her hands. She loves to serve her family in other words. A virtuous woman is praised by her family and called blessed. True godly men want a virtuous woman. And so does God.

We together can serve our family like this virtuous woman unmarried or married. Those of us who are not married can serve our fathers and siblings. Let us as sisters in Christ encourage one another to be virtouse and to do the things Proverbs tells us to do.

I hope that I one day will be the one that is called a woman far above rubies. And I hope that for you to.
