Womanhood

When I was in high school I was an excellent cheater, liar, and thief.  In fact, I was so good at these things that they propelled me to rank in the top 10% of my class academically.  Oh, and I received an academic President’s Scholarship at the college I attended.  All because they thought I…

I’ve never written on this topic before, nor have I spoken much about it, but my Father has an uncanny knack of taking me to those deep, dark, painful places that are tucked away locked in the vault of my heart.  He has a way of stirring things up.  Getting to the root issues.  Ruffling…

Well, of course, every woman needs chocolate, right?  Or coffee? Maybe if I wrote out a list of 25 things, then chocolate and coffee would definitely make that list!  But today I’m sharing the one particular thing that your soul can’t live without. No matter the age or stage of life, every woman needs this one thing.  It’s a simple…

Looking for a mentor for your Christian walk and/or marriage? Well, look no further! Coming to a computer screen near you is a bite size Bible study of the Wives of the Bible! When I was newly saved and single I had no older Christian women showing me how to be a Godly woman. But…

I’m not fond of living in chaos.  A rushed life.  Frazzled.  Always behind.  This way of life leaves me feeling defeated in all my roles. Most women fill the following roles: Daughter of the Most High God. Wife. Mother. Homemaker. Possible work at home mom or work outside of the home. Woman in ministry. The…

Since sending out yesterday’s post, I’ve received so many encouraging comments from women that my eyes have gushed tears all day.  Feel free to call me a Bucket of Water because that’s what I was. 🙂 But first, let me make something clear before I get into the meat of this post because there might…

I can’t take it anymore.  The voice of the Enemy has been too much for me to bear in this on-line space lately.  The rude comments.  The venom.  The critical tone.  People writing blogs about me and I don’t mean in a good way.  Harsh and critical words have brought me to tears one too many times.…

Have you ever felt overwhelmed in your pursuit of growing into a Godly woman?  Or maybe you’ve experienced defeat or been deflated in your attempts to becoming a woman of virtue?  Yeah, I’ve been there too. A reader wrote in sharing this same struggle.  Here’s her story… Dear Jolene I´m a 21 years old woman…

Pain.  Afflictions.  Betrayal.  Disease.  Disaster.  The wringing of our hands.  Our anxious thoughts.  A lost way. Can you relate to any of this?  I know I can.  In fact, I feel like I’m constantly wearing these heartaches.  And this got me to thinking about them and all of the pain and suffering that we endure.…

Okay, so I absolutely love this question because there’s a part of me that can relate to it, meaning, I shared the same heart attitude (and struggles) of how to become a feminine woman when I was an aggressive, take-charge, single working woman.  But even if you’re a married woman reading this, I think what…
