Many women have asked me about being a keeper at home once their children are grown up and gone. Should they go out and get a job? I love being a keeper at home in my older age. I am available to help my children with their children at any time. I get to cuddle with my grandchildren, feed them good food, and watch them play outside. I have the privilege of holding my brand new grandbaby and helping my…
This is a fake advertisement for Hardees made to mock the gender roles of the past. It states, “Women don’t leave the kitchen! We all know a woman’s place is in the home, cooking a man a delicious meal. But if you are still enjoying the bachelor’s life and don’t have a little miss waiting on you, then come down to Hardee’s for something sloppy and hastily prepared.” God tells us a woman’s place is in the home. It’s the…
“Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee” (Isaiah 49:15). Many women forget their nursing babies. They get up each morning and hustle to get out the door for work. They drop their babies off at daycare where a daycare worker feeds the baby a bottle. After spending all day at work, they pick up their babies from daycare…
Brometheus tweeted this recently: “Steps for women looking to get engaged: 1) Wear a nice sundress; 2) Smile a lot; 3) Carry a plate of bacon; 4) When people mention the bacon, say, ‘Yes, I made it.’ Men will instantly rate you far above the vast majority of modern women. This ain’t rocket science. It’s that simple.” Most men aren’t that complicated. Women are much more complicated because we tend to be led by our emotions and feelings which change…
On my post Women Prefer Men Who Aren’t Porn Addicts, one woman shared a comment about a friend whose husband is addicted to porn and since I know this is a common problem, I thought I would share it as encouragement for those of you who don’t feel desired by their husbands because of their addiction to porn. “A friend of mine shared how she grew up so sheltered that she didn’t know much about porn. She married a godly…
Written by my husband, Ken “I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have being” (Ps. 104:33)! It is hard to believe that just a little over two weeks ago I went into the ER with a pulse of 40 and BP of 90/50. Everything still seems a bit surreal and as if it never really happened. About four weeks ago, I had flu-like symptoms where I said…
A woman asked me for counsel. Here is her situation: “I became saved after already living in sin with the father of my now two children. We are still not married. Since becoming saved, I have seen and learned why God wants us to be married before having children and living together. My partner, however, is not a believer and doesn’t see the need to ‘rush into’ getting married even though I want to honor God and do so. How…
Yesterday, I shared this on social media: “Living together used to be called living in sin. Everyone knew sex outside of marriage was wrong. Changing the name doesn’t negate this fact. Sin cheats yourself out of God’s best. FLEE fornication!” Of course, many vehemently disagreed with me. We live in a wicked generation. Some said that if a couple is living together, they are “married in God’s eyes.” Others said that marriage isn’t a document from the government but simply…
Joseph Spurgeon had a picture of himself with another man at a table with a sign that read, “Feminism Ruins Everything. Change My Mind.” Of course, a lively discussion ensued and feminists were outraged. A woman named Zoe wrote, “I’m sorry you feel this way. Feminism is what gave women the right to vote. Isn’t that a beautiful thing? Bringing women up, in the eyes of the government, to the same level of their male counterparts? What was ruined there?”…
A week ago yesterday, I took my husband to the ER with a heart rate of 40 beats per minute. It had been this way for about four days. Soon after we got to the ER and he was transferred to a bigger hospital, it went down to the 20s and as low as 13. He was diagnosed with Lyme Carditis and put on antibiotics. The doctors told him it would take two to seven days to heal. It was…
