The Simple Life

• Jul. 6, 2007 - Am I Reclusive?

Please forgive me if you are coming to this blog today looking for something exciting...you'll not find it here.

 

It seems that I find myself busy and content with my simple, little life that I haven't much to say about much of anything.  Here are a few sentences to sum up my feelings:

 

1)  I love Jesus Christ beyond words, and spend my days trying to be worthy of being called His.

 

2)  I try to be the wife God would have me be to my wonderful husband.

 

3)  I try to parent His (not my) children the way God needs and wants me to.

 

Those three sentences right there keep me very busy and very focused (with God's help of course).  I'm sure if most people read it they might think..."well that's not a lot to keep up with"...but honestly...it's just about all I can or want to be responsible for.  I also find that in trying to keep the home life I desire for my family that I have to be...well...at home.  I LOVE BEING AT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

That's where I am in this "Simple Life" of mine for now.

 

Growing In Christ,

Shay

What an awesome post. I feel the same way sometimes. I'm busy at home, though I don't know that I could make a list of what I do. It's encouraging to hear another mom who likes staying home and just being a wife and mother. Thanks for your honesty. :)

I absolutely love being at home too! I have been having so much fun this summer mostly staying put, and actually keeping my yard in order. The Lord has really blessed us hasn't He?

Isn't it wonderful the contentment God brings to us at home! I love being at home, too!
I went to college fully intending to have a 'career' but now I can't even IMAGINE being a 'career woman' - The whole concept just seems so foreign to me!
And yet I feel like the 'richest' woman alive!

Blessings,

Hiya! First off, we are *SO* *SAD* that we won't be seeing Emery this weekend. :(

And secondly, here is the picture URL for the Rockin' Girl Blogger award. This is the orange one, btw. Just put this link where you would put a regular picture link. :)
