Weather and Mood, Plus Other Subjects (Video)

I hope you are all looking on the bright side and enjoying the home.

I read from these books on weather by Eric Sloane.

In these books, the author stated he first wanted to paint clouds and sky scenes and he quickly became interested in weather.

Scene of The Manse today.

I always like to show what I wore at home when at leisure, with apron for work , and with jacket or coat when I need to do any business in town:

Dress: London Times, $20 purchase at Home Goods; apron: Hobby Lobby, bolero style cardigan- WalMart.

Please enjoy being home while you listen:

The verses I read today were from Colossians 1:9-12

Dianne said...: It's so nice how you and your daughter write letters back and forth to each other...and the same with the grandchildren.

And isn't it sadly true that we cannot always share our deepest values with too many, even if they are believers.

Each podcast never disappoints with the encouragement it gives, Lydia. I only hope we all show appreciation enough back to you.

God bless you

Mrs M. said...: I have not listened to this podcast yet but those weather books look lovely. I've always been interested in weather but this spring I really became interested in it through discovering storm chasers on youtube. I have learned a lot about severe weather. It's kind of a funny interest for a homemaker but I like to learn a little bit about everything. I think it makes me well rounded, especially when it comes to homeschooling.; 4:53 AM

The Little Chap Who Follows Me!

A careful man I want to be;
A little fellow follows me.
I do not dare to go astray
For fear he'll go the self same way.

I cannot once escape his eyes,
Whate'er he sees me do, he tries.
Like me he says he's going to be;
The little chap who follows me.

He thinks that I'm so very fine,
Believes in every word of mine.
The base in me he must not see;
The little chap who follows me.

I must remember as I go
Through summer's sun and winter's snow,
I'm building for the years to be;
The little chap who follows me.

Welcome

" So far as this world knows or can vision, there is no attainment more desirable than the happy and contented home."

This is a Proverbs 31 and Titus 2 teaching blog, where you will find some ideas for creating the kind of home life that gives you a sense of well-being, creativity and accomplishment. It will help you understand the reasons for being the Biblical keepers of the home, as opposed to the world's answer of being career women outside of the home.

I really hope to help restore the culture of the home, which is a never-changing precept of the Bible: marriage, home and family. Young women especially need to know there is something else of greater importance than college and career, and that they play a vital role in making a stable family. In order to have strong marriages, respectful children, and good churches, women need to return to the home. My blog is based on the precept of First Timothy 5, verse 14:

"I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully..."

These articles are designed to give the homemaker ideas for doing an excellent job in the home and for enjoying the role of homemaker and guide of the house. Marriage, the family and home life is splintered. Women must be allowed to return to the home.

The Queen's Ire

England's Queen Victoria wrote in 1870, "I am most anxious to enlist everyone who can speak or write to join in checking this mad, wicked folly of 'Women's Rights', with all its attendant horrors, on which her poor feeble sex is bent, forgetting every sense of womanly feelings and propriety. Feminists ought to get a good whipping. Were woman to 'unsex' themselves by claiming equality with men, they would become the most hateful, heathen and disgusting of beings, and would surely perish without male protection."-- Queen Victoria, 1870.

Home

"Why do women want to dress like men when they’re fortunate enough to be women? Why lose femininity, which is one of our greatest charms? We get more accomplished by being charming than we would be flaunting around in pants and smoking. I’m very fond of men. I think they are wonderful creatures. I love them dearly. But I don’t want to look like one. When women gave up their long skirts, they made a grave error…" ~Tasha Tudor

There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort. ~Jane Austen

Home ought to be our clearinghouse, the place from which we go forth lessoned and disciplined, and ready for life. ~Kathleen Norris
