Let's share what we've been perusing this week. From household tips, to spiritual growth...and everything in between!

 

Advice isn’t always well received, is it?  All of the articles I’m sharing this week give solid advice or insights that I’ve needed at one time in my life….or now.  I hope some of it is a blessing to you.

Here’s what I’ve been reading:

Why you don’t need to forgive yourself (and what you really need instead) … at A Divine Encounter.  Perhaps you’ve gotten, or given, the advice to ‘forgive yourself’.  Did you know that the Bible never tells us to forgive ourselves?  So what do we do instead?

A servant in my house … at Maidservants of Christ.  “…there is no other situation in my life where I have a greater opportunity to serve in secret, in silence, and in humility” than in my home. 

Dear Mom of little ones… at Heart-to-Heart Homeschooling.  A change in perspective isn’t going to make you less tired, but it’s still worth it.  This is solid advice that every mom of littles can take to heart.

Am I praying for my husband or about him? … at Unveiled Wife and 7 reasons for a wife to choose prayer over prodding … at Growing a Content Heart.  Both of these articles inspire me to be a better wife.  They both hit on things that come naturally to me (and I don’t think I’m alone).

It’s a rumbling in your soul..not your stomach … at Humble Faith Family Wellness.  Can I just say, “Amen!”  This is a message I have been trying to fully learn and implement for years.  

You are beautiful … at Hands-On Learning.  We all need to hear this sometimes.  This is a lovely reminder for you (and me) today.
