Hi everyone, I'm very glad to meet you all. 
My name is Rachel, and I am a 21 year old Christian woman living in Florida. I have attended a Baptist church since birth. It is the church I was baptized in, and is also the church that I got married in. In fact, most of my family members including my parents were married in this church!
I have always lived what I consider to be a devout lifestyle. My husband and I met at a young age as we went to school together - it was the private school at our church, with only 11 students in our grade. We were very close friends until we graduated, when he asked my father to have me as his wife. Needless to say, I was thrilled about that!
We remained virgins until married.
We have now been married one year since August, and I am pregnant with our first child. To God be the Glory!!
Lately, I find that much of my study involves child-bearing, as I am just fascinated with it currently. It's difficult not to think about with feeling sick all the time
Other than being pregnant, I am a home maker. We also have a few animals that I tend to, and I have a vegetable garden for the delight of making my own salads. We still live devoutly. I stay home, keep the house clean, and look forward to taking care of our new baby and hopefully many more. I really like cooking, as well as studying the KJB (none other) a few hours a day.
Hmm.. My favorite Bible verse isn't easy to choose. I have a few that immediately come to mind. I'll choose Deutoronomy 28:56-57.
"The tender and delicate women among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter, and toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewithin thine enemy shall distress the in thy gates."
This verse speaks to me particularly about my role as a wife - and, in just a few months, a mom too. I do ask my husband's permission before using the internet (and I allow him to see the history of what I've done) I do not do the things he doesn't want me to do. Likewise, I also don't just sit around like many of my fellow church-going young women who have also gotten married and pregnant! They believe that all their work for their husband and their Lord is over, and they do not continue to contribute. It shocks me. I fear that they will worship the children as their own, rather than give their child as a soldier for Christ.. But I pray for the best. I pray, too, that I will not be tempted by this problem as so many mothers are.
This morning, I came across this website by simple coincidence while reading some very saddening comments from atheists on a forum. I ended up reading much more than I originally intended to, because I realized the things I was learning! Although I have always lead a Christian lifestyle and have believed in Jesus Christ and the Scripture, there are many facts here that have not been pieced together before me in this way. I will be glad to share my findings with my husband when he comes home.
I hope to learn from many of you! I realize some will disagree, but I am peaceful and I don't want to fight. I hope to read your responses later, after my extended study and taking lunch to my husband. And, finally, I hope to make friends here that I can trust for truthful answers to my questions. I have a few, but for now, I believe I have typed enough for one post.
Pleased to meet you,
Rachel
