Today we will see a March for Life instead of a “Women’s March” that was more like a March for Death of the unborn and everything that is good and godly. There have been over 60 million unborn babies murdered in their mother’s womb since Rove v. Wade was instituted. I am thankful that we finally have a president who cares about the life of the unborn and is willing to speak out for life. And as Ted Cruz wrote,…
The Church (believers), Christ’s bride, should be the “light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden” (Matthew 5:14). Is your church this way? Just think how powerful the Church would be today if all Women’s Bible Studies were older, godly women teaching younger, godly women: what loving their husbands is supposed to look like and how to go about loving, respecting, and obeying them, how to go about disciplining, training, and loving their children in…
God commands young women to “marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully” (1 Timothy 5:14) therefore, if you are a young woman who loves the Lord, you should be obeying this command to the best of your ability. Too many Christians have been swayed by the culture they are living in instead of reading and obeying the Word of God. This world needs children and no, it is NOT overpopulated as the…
“Were any of your children high strung as kids? Our youngest daughter has been like that since she was born. She’s highly intelligent, perceptive, and fun-loving, but she’s got this extremely finicky, high-strung, dramatic and overly sensitiveness about her that is really a struggle for me to figure out how best to handle. If she spills a tiny bit of water on herself, you’d think it’s the end of the world and she absolutely has to change her clothes or…
We, as parents, are commanded to bring our children up “in the nurture and admonition of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4). In Deuteronomy 6, we are told to do this with the Word of God concerning our children:“These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart.You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and…
Do you remember being bored in school? Now, I am not saying being bored is bad, since this is usually when we have to be creative, but it’s hard to be creative when you’re sitting in a chair for hours a day. My children never told me they were bored at home because if they did, I would give them chores to do. There are also tennis lessons that could get them up and outside. If they told me they…
Almost every week while my children were growing up I took them to AWANA which stands for “Approved Workmen are Not Ashamed” from 2 Timothy 2:15. My youngest two children began when they were three years old and went through junior high. My oldest even went a few years in high school. Every week, they had to memorize several verses, sometimes even more. They hid many Bible verses deeply in their hearts. Most every morning, Ken and I read Morning…
“Gentle Parenting” is the rage right now. Some even refuse to say “no” to their children. They have their children sleep in their beds. They would never spank their children, because they claim Jesus is a gentle parent. We were gentle parents but not in this way. We were kind, loving, affectionate, warm, and joyful with our children, but we said “no” often to them as the Lord says “no” to us about many things that harm us or are…
Many young women today drink too much alcohol and are not sober-minded. They make decisions based upon their emotions and feelings, instead of what is right and good. This is why they need to be taught to be sober by godly, older women. Many young women divorce their husbands if they are not happy or they nag, manipulate, or try to control them. Many foolish women are tearing their homes down with their own hands. This is why older women…
A mother who is a doctor or nurse can help people get better but they will all die eventually. A mother who is a lawyer can win some cases but only those who love Jesus win in the end. A mother who is a teacher can have an influence in her students’ lives for one year but what they learn in this life is very temporary. A mother who is an actress or singer entertains a lot of strangers for…
