My daughter knows who she is...
... aah that we were that grounded in who we are as Christian women. In today's Post Modern society, we've lost what Christian generations before us knew as fact and took for granted. Some of us are first generation Christians with little to no knowledge of the God we are trying to serve. With the advent of feminism and its relationship to the church, as women, the lines our our identity blur further. We've lost sight of what our Creator-issued function is supposed to be. It's time we dig deep and find out who God is, what he created us to be and what we should be doing. And that's a bit of what I try to share. Although I've been told I inspire people with my faith, I'm not a theologian. I'm no expert on Biblical womanhood either, but I've learned a thing or two along the way. I have four growing "arrows," but motherhood is still an everyday challenge. I am a second generation homeschooler, but there is a big difference between being the student and being the teacher. I might not be a 5-star chef, but I can make yummy soup in a hurry. I'll never be a fashion designer with a collection on the runways of Paris, but my daughter loves to wear my creations. Of all these, I would rather be playing piano for an audience of One. These are the things that make me. These are places God grows me and provides lessons to learn. These are the things you'll find me writing about. I encourage you to read, enjoy, ponder and grow. Seeing glimpses of yourself in others is often the best way to learn... |
We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it, than we do from learning the answer itself.
