Last year this post made a big hit and you all requested the code for sharing the official “Ruby Rebel” button on your sidebars. Since our site has changed, I wanted to remind you to change your code if you have a ruby rebel button (new code is below). If you don’t, grab it and [...]
Jesus was a Right-Wing
Saturday, September 27th, 2008Just a small point I wanted to make…
I’ve heard a lot lately during all the political jargon about “left wing liberals”, pitched as a little psychotic, and “right-winged conservatives, or “Religious right” painted just as “off”. You’re only normal, you know, if you’re on good, safe “reasonable”, middle ground.
And as I must face that I’m [...]
What’s A Mom’s Biggest Job?
Thursday, August 14th, 2008The longer I’m a mother, the more profoundly the Lord reveals His divine plan.
“Honor your father and mother.” Seems simple enough to teach to our children.
Have you looked around lately?
Are children generally honoring their parents?
“Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.”
That is really all children are commanded to do. This is [...]
Redeeming the Time and Legos
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008A quote by Geoff Botkin keeps resonating….”A soldier is too busy fighting to have hobbies.”
Now before you leave my blog, I think you’ll find that’s not such an extreme statement. As I bring up children (arrows), I must not forget that the spiritual war wages all the time. How am I helping equip them to [...]
Able To Give An Answer
Sunday, June 29th, 2008As Christians, Paul says we should “be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you a reason of the hope that is in you…” I Peter 3:15
I love this. First, it assumes people are going to be asking us something. Which implies that we are different than them. Different is not [...]
The Feminine Power of the Skirt
Tuesday, June 10th, 2008Feminity holds a certain power, when, if controlled by the spirit of God, is a beautiful and useful tool for bringing forth His purposes. Whether you abhor skirts, or are a skirts/dresses only lady, it does us well to ponder the idea of feminine beauty and how far our culture has moved away from true [...]
Destroyed for Lack of Knowledge
Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008Among all the suggestions and advice on parenting and being a mother, there is one thing that I see as an uncompromising tenet of Christian parenting: being vigilant in passing on the Word of God to our children, keeping it pure and undefiled, and laboring to ensure our children are deeply rooted in sound wisdom [...]
Crying Out for More Children
Monday, May 26th, 2008Crying Out for More Children???
As I swooned with dizziness and nausea from my sixth pregnancy, my 6-year old son, in his childish excitement, asked, “Mommy, can you have twins? Because I can’t decide if I want a girl or a boy, so I just want both.” Able to manage a chuckle, I secretly thought, “What [...]
Wives and Marriage: What is My Role?
Friday, May 23rd, 2008“Nothing is more beautiful than a woman who is a crown to her husband…an extension of all that he is….the rewards are a man who will conquer the world for her.”
To understand the proper aspects of marriage and our roles as wives, we must first understand the fundamental design God intended for us. This is [...]
God…Not First on Your List?
Friday, May 23rd, 2008Food for thought…
Have you ever been asked to make a list of your priorities? We all start with the same answer for #1: “God”, or “My relationship with God”.
Would you think it blasphemy if I said that this answer is not a biblical one? That God is NOT to be first on our list?
God is [...]
