~One womans journey into discovering Gods created purpose for Women.~

"...but for Adam, there was not found a helper suitable for him. So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. The Lord God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. The man said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man." For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. The man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed." Genesis 2:20a-25

My vision for this site

My main goal for this site is to glorify God.  I am hoping that you will see growth in my own life as I learn Gods created purpose for women but I also hope that you will be encouraged, convicted and motivated to grow in Him yourself. 

I want this site to be a safe place to be "real".  Life is hard.  Walking through life as Gods woman is even harder.  Honest discussions and compassionate advice is encouraged.  If you are perfect and looking for a place to fellowship with other perfect women, this is not the place for you. 

Encouragement:  You are not alone in your struggles each day.  Though my struggles may be different from yours, Gods Truth to us all remains the same.  We are to love our husbands, love our children, be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind and subject to our husbands. 

Conviction:  First of all, the Holy Spirit is the one that convicts so please understand that if something is discussed here and it convicts you, I was not talking to our about you (mostly because I dont know you *wink*) but rather because God is trying to show you a better way.  His way is always better.  Secondly, we tend to think of "conviction" in a negative way but in reality, we should welcome it.  Our own conscience bears witness to Gods truth imprinted on our hearts and He uses them -our conscience and conviction- to bring about His good in our lives. 

Motivation:  Sometimes we need to "pull up our bootstraps" and just obey what we know is right.  Even when (especially when!) its hard to do so.  The ultimate goal is to glorify God and to walk in His best for our lives but we will also see that His best for us is for a reason.  True satisfaction and contentment in life can only come through living in His will for us. 

I want to try and keep entires short and light -though just by nature some will be deeper and many will have "to be continued" endings. 

**Most Importantly**
I am just an imperfect woman.
I am a sinner and I make a lot of mistakes.
I dont have all the answers and likely never will this side of Heaven.
I will do my best to explain scripture accurately but I encourage you to still take my words and compare them with Gods Word yourself.
