I won't list all the items but it includes lots of cooking, new ideas for home Sunday School, Bible reading, gardening plus others.
10 creative ways to make this Easter the most memorable - The Christian Post |
Oh, I think we should all rejoice in your posting this, dear Brother Mayor Hold, for it helps to remind us of the role of the womenfolk in the household.
Titus 2:4,5:
4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of
be not blasphemed.
Now, then, one of the ways that I think a good wife can improve herself is simply with the act of gratitude: showing thanks to her husband for all that he has done, and for all that he has given to her and the family.
I Thessalonians 5:18 "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of
in
concerning you."
Not only is it important to be grateful for the clothes that one's husband provides, but it is just as important to show happiness throughout the day, when doing the household chores. I mean, if hubby is so thoughtful as to provide us with nice clothing from his hard-earned wages, then, surely the least that we can do is to be humble, and to smile graciously when doing our part at home.
