Graceful and beautiful pillars are indeed being raised today. I have seen them with my own eyes. They stand out from the crowd. They are being raised for kingdom purposes.
Theirs is a strong and sacred foundaton–the holy scriptures. This is where they are learning the character of the Proverbs 31 women and the mandates of Titus 2:4-6:
1. Learning to love their future husbands
2. Learning to love their future children
3. To be self-controlled
4. To be pure
5. To be keepers at home
6. To be kind
7. Learning to be subject to their future husbands so the word of God will not be maligned
This new generation of daughters are being raised to fear the Lord. They are taught to be feminine women of nobility, courage, diligence, loyalty and submission. They esteem purity and modesty. They strive to be honorable. They are daughters who have vision and remarkable influence as they help to advance the kingdom of God. These daughters have given their hearts to their parents and desire to help and bless them and their families. They learn the value of a meek and quiet spirit as they firmly defend and teach the Word to all who are willing to listen. They know their true purpose because they are serving the Lord wholeheartedly. They embrace how they were designed to be help-meets and seek to be industrious to help their fathers and future husbands. Many are highly educated and well-equipped to teach the next generation about the Lord and prepare for Him an army of warriors.
Godly daughters follow in the spirit of Psalm 144:12 and Titus 2. They are pillars and cornerstones, which is another word often used in this verse, help to support and vital in maintaining a buildings structure. Much in the same way daughters become just as invaluable to a home as they grow and help it to run successfully. Godly daughter’s embrace their father’s vision and take it up as their own. Virtuous daughters being brought up to be godly women are invaluably priceless in the eye’s of the Lord (Proverbs 31:10) and they impact society and culture with a powerful rippling effect.
So, dear Christian Mothers, know that that little daughter sitting next to you is cherished in the Lord’s eyes. The babes she will raise will be the next generation which will serve Him. She will be standing shoulder-to-shoulder with her husband taking dominion and quite possibly be at the helm with him, leading the future church, mentoring men and women alike as they take their place in reforming culture. She will be making strong the fabric of society by taking her place in the home and in her family- making it an example for others to learn from and to bring God glory. Be careful to guide her and protect her. Be careful to teach her all that you know and much, much more. Love her with the love that comes from the Heavenly Father and be found trustworthy of discipling her well.
For those mothers who want to learn more about raising a daughter of virtue, we will have another special giveaway–a Raising Maidens of Virtue book signed by Stacy McDonald, just leave a comment in this post to enter! Ends June 4th at 8pm EST.

Hello – what a beautiful post. These are the virtues I so want instill in my two daughters. It cannot be left up to the schools or churches to raise them in the way of the Lord. They learn it at home. That’s a big responsibility for me, but I take the challenge seriously and with great passion. It is a daily battle with the media and technology in their faces.
Thank you for providing this place we can come to for inspiration and encouragement!
Blessings,
Marie

I’d love to win this! Thanks!
Thank you for this encouragement.
Thankyou for this website!
I have recently realized through much prayer and fasting how selfish I have been. I sent my kids back to public school. Only tried it for half a year. I have not been a wife that is submissive, I have never learned. Now after all of this, I have kneeled before God Almighty and confessed my sin of rebelliousness, pride, selfishness, and more! I want so badly to raise up daughters and a son that will be godly. That will be the godly ladies, wives, homemakers, and my son who will be that godly man, husband, father, and breadwinner one day. I thank Jesus for revealing this to me. I am up against a whole lot. For this is not reality anymore. There is so much feminism out there, and a lot is being broken in me as well! But I need to stand with God’s power and might! The book about Raising maidens of Virtue, that looks so good. I would like to get it sometime when I can. Sorry if I got the title wrong. Anyway, I appreciate this website very much. Godbless you for taking this stand in Jesus’ name! ~Erin~

What a blessing this would be! Please enter my name….
What a wonderful post. I am so thankful for this blog.
It’s a sobering thought, to be a mother of daughters, to have a heart to raise them for the Lord, and yet to struggle with being unsure how to go about it. So many of today’s moms of daughters are not from a long lineage of strong faith! So many were not taught how to be a homemaker and feel so lost as to how to teach their daughters what they themselves are still learning! So many are the first generation in their family to homeschool, dress modestly, or reject the flaws in today’s rampant feminism in favor of true femininity. I’m excited about this site and hope you will succeed in becoming a beacon to mothers and daughters!
Looks like a great book!
Please enter me in this giveaway!! I need raising myself and help raising my daughterS!!!

2. THANK YOU for launching this site.
Love this article. I have but one daughter but she is a precious gift from the Lord. I love watching so eager to learn the ways of keeping a home even at the young age of 7 she is so willing to learn,asking questions and absorbing as much information as she can. Her only wish is to have a sister (or 2) : )
I am so glad I found this site! This is the one thing I am wondering about all the time while raising and homeschooling my children.I have only one little rose, and she is very precious to me!
I would love to win this book to give as a gift to my daughter raising her two daughters. I just found your website ~ just in time to enter! :~P
Blessings!
