As a homemaker, your hands are the hands of Christ As a homemaker, your hands are the hands of Christ ministering in tangible ways every day to the people you love. The importance of a homemaker is often forgotten, but homemaking is something every family enjoys whether they consciously think about it or not. Our culture often degrades the role of a homemaker as unimportant or as unworthy of much praise. Here in America, stereotypical housewives are mocked and made fun of as if homemaking and domestic arts are less valuable than other pursuits. The idea of homemaking is often ridiculed as feminism has become more and more prevalent. Our daughters are taught that girls don’t need to take care of a home and should instead pursue careers instead of raising a family. And while there is nothing wrong with women pursuing a career outside the home, there is certainly nothing wrong with women choosing to stay home either. That’s the beauty of being free to choose. Our world needs women who create a home that welcomes its family with warmth and cheer. - Words by Melissa Ringstaff 💕 READ MORE: https://avirtuouswoman.org/homemaking-101-daily-disciplines-for-every-homemaker/ * * * #wearethehomemakers #proverbs31 #proverbs31woman #purpose31 #10virtues #homemaking #homemakingministries #happyhomemaking #homemaking101 #cleanhome #cleanheart #fromchaostocalm #housekeeping #cleaningroutine #inspiredhome #makingahome #lovewhereyoudwell #homemaker #homebody #biblicalHomemaking
Moms have the most important job in the world. C Moms have the most important job in the world. C.S. Lewis said, “Children are not a distraction from more important work. They are the most important work.” I’ve noticed a trend on social media and mom blogs recently that concerns me. What I’m about to say is not going to be the popular sentiment, but this morning I felt convicted to speak up. But first a little bit about me for those of you who don't know me: I’m a mom of five. I had my first child at the age of 15. And my kids range in ages: 30, 26, 24, 20, and almost 18. I remember as a very young mom feeling frustrated a lot. My son was strong willed and in my mind, a very difficult child. I read a lot of books about strong willed children and how to deal with them. Motherhood is hard. But it’s also the most rewarding job you will ever be blessed to have. It requires patience and understanding. It demands you to rise above your own self and put others first. I’ve shared this thought before, and it’s still so very true: The real key to patience is valuing the other person so much that nothing is more important than your relationship. Your kids need you to be patient. “Love is patient and kind…” 1 Corinthians 13:4 I’ve read a lot of posts recently about moms losing their cool and “being a jerk” to their kids that end with the words: “I’m still a good mom.” I don’t want this to come across as harsh, hard, or even judgemental, but being a jerk to your kids is not being a good mom. Do good moms have bad days? Yes. No mom is perfect. I have more than my fair share of regrets. But let's not placate our egos by suggesting that being anything less than kind and loving is okay. The reality is: being a jerk to your kids is sinful. The Bible calls us to come out of sin - not to accept it as okay. “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:8,9 CONTINUE READING: https://avirtuouswoman.org/moms-are-important/ - Words by Melissa Ringstaff, writer at A Virtuous Woman 📸: Me, age 17, with my son.

“It’s Mother’s Day weekend and the pastor is “It’s Mother’s Day weekend and the pastor is speaking about the virtues of the Proverbs 31 Woman and while you wish you could be her, you feel like there’s no way you could ever live up to the righteous standards laid out in the last chapter Proverbs. You sit there and think about your hectic morning, rushing about, trying to get the kids ready for church on time, and no one can find their shoes much less get into the car without complaining, whining, and bickering. How in the world could you ever become a Proverbs 31 Woman? Oh, sweet friend, I’ve been there! Being a wife and mama is hard work and sometimes – maybe often times – you feel overwhelmed and frustrated and wish you could just get a break. I have good news for you! Becoming a Proverbs 31 woman isn’t as hard as you think. In fact, Proverbs 31 is not a checklist or a to do list. Instead, it’s a beautiful representation of what it means to be a virtuous woman. Let me show you how being a virtuous woman today is possible – and my guess is you are already well on your way to living out God’s purpose for your life. And that’s what Proverbs 31 is really about – living with purpose.” - Melissa Ringstaff 💕 Happy Mother’s Day!
