As women we have the ability to make the most of the many wonderful ‘simple things’ that the Lord has provided. This can be done by nourishing & creating a place of rest, beauty and joy in our homes. When a treasured family member or friend enters our home…. are we communicating to them an environment of hospitality & kindness? Not only our home, meals, and accessories communicate an attitude of hospitality, but most importantly our hearts.
“Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a
stalled ox and hatred therewith.”
Even though our drinking glasses might be sparkling and our meal might be scrumptious, if our heart attitude and mind are not in the right place it will be a fruitless gesture, indeed.
However, there is hope and joy for the happy homemaker, even though her floors might not be spotless or her meal ideal… her kind welcoming demeanor, tender voice, wise words, and joyful smile will make her guest feel affectionately loved and cared for.
And that is, indeed, far above rubies.
Oh, to be more like the woman of Proverbs 31 not only in action, but also in godly demeanor.
Join me ladies and visionaries in putting on the fruits of the spirit combined with fruitful hospitality and proclaim feminine loveliness to the world as we endeavor to live the ‘simple life’ for God’s glory!
“The wise woman builds her house, but with her own
hands the foolish one tears hers down.”
-Proverbs 14:1
