Ministries take up oodles of time and money and in the meantime, little time has really been spent renewing the mind. Women especially need to make it their "ministry" to have peace in their lives.<BR/><BR/> <BR/>The title of this Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530969871397361970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-1129615332729882162005-10-17T23:02:00.000-07:002005-10-17T23:02:00.000-07:00Dear Lady Lydia, Thanks SO much for words of gent...Dear Lady Lydia, <BR/> Thanks SO much for words of gentle guidance and wisdom! I have felt SO selfish and guilty in the past when well meaning sister church members (who are supposedly "homemakers") have told me there was something wrong with me because I preferred to spend my time taking care of my own little world of husband, home, and family.

After years of going to lectureships and ladies days and all kinds of things, I totally left it all behind to concentrate on my home, my family, the local church and my personal relationship with God.

I have also found that once others, especially within the church, find that I am a homemaker and mother they immediately think I have tons of idle time on my hands with which to serve in some capacity. In years past I would have felt they were right and agreed to whatever was asked of me. Now, after many years of Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
