The stay-at-home women in our church insisted on meeting separately from the working women and made such rude comments to the working women - and were so judgmental. Didn't they realize those working women wanted to stay home and raise their children. They should look to Scripture where it says the woman is to be a helpmate. Is is just so sad to see how Satan and used this as a dividing sword between the women. Once an unbeliever said to me she would never become a christian because she had a neighbor who so disliked the working women in her church.

I know women that work and would love to stay home and their husbands refuse to allow it. (My sister is in this situation) It is sad and I truly hate it. The true sufferers are her children. <br />Blessings,<br />Amy Josunnyskiesandsweetteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05411963709035869592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-47674986653737049892015-03-06T12:18:40.027-07:002015-03-06T12:18:40.027-07:00Being home to raise my family has been worth every...Being home to raise my family has been worth every sacrifice and hardship.<br />Blessings,<br />LauraMrs. Laura Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17334381585683324912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-65760323386985524282015-03-05T15:53:33.411-07:002015-03-05T15:53:33.411-07:00This is such a good post Roxy.

The pull to be out in the work force can be really strong, but I am beginning to discover that there is real value in being home.

We have ALL been lied to....in many many ways. Yes feminism did it's deed but it's even more than that. Our consumer based culture drives it home too. The great american dream has grown in to a forced need of 2 incomes. Have you seen the types of home that are being built..the things people "think" they need?? Excess is everywhere and that excess costs a ton of money. Little boys are no longer taught to be the sole providers of a household...they wanna enter into co earning partnerships because thats the examples they see....ugh. Fathers train daughters to get out there and provide for themselves- get a job and move out- instead of providing provision till released to marriage. The examples is fathers provide, then husbands provide. Then there's the older generation raising the grandkids...babysitting full time so their kids can work to pay for their giant homes/ excessive things- have you noticed the trend for young couples to have a home 10x nicer than what it took their parents a lifetime to gain?? Almost no one wants the small starter home.....it's just crazy the financial bondage people set themselves in. I am not talking about the exceptions...there will always be the woman who's husband dies or left or is unable to work...who must work....but even that may be a shame as our churches and other family members dont step up to the plate to provide as they should....Timothy speaks of the widow who if she is below a certain age ( I think 60??)...should REMARRY for provision or if she is older....her male family is to provide her needs and if they can't then the church....but we all know no one does that anymore. Its sad that all these things are sorted out in the bible and are good ways....the better path...yet no one wants to follow that path.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08959317480680118284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-90302690559368487222015-03-05T07:15:33.663-07:002015-03-05T07:15:33.663-07:00I agree Roxy, I worked some over the years but alw...I agree Roxy, I worked some over the years but always loved being a homemaker, wife and mother. I was blessed to keep my grandchildren when they were young since my daughters "had" to work.

She might not be saying those exact words, but I'm her mother. I understand where she is.

I feel very blessed to be able to work my gift from God at home through my painting but for many years worked outside the home too. It makes us ask a question.<br />Are we living within our means or is the lifestyle we want dictating what we think we need?? or does the prices for everything going through the roof lead to second incomes in most homes just to meet family necessities.<br />Great food for thought post.<br /><br />Thank you for stopping by while I was away. Back now and trying to catch up.<br />Have a blessed rest of the week.<br />Hugs, CM<br /><br />Celestina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021633519525822335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-45632511014632622912015-03-04T16:04:49.911-07:002015-03-04T16:04:49.911-07:00I just love this post Rox.

I am so thankful to have been strengthened and encouraged to be a homemaker through the years my children were all growing up. I know that there is an agenda to dismantle the home. So many arrows flying at the woman who chooses home and family above a career. Our Nation needs mothers and fathers who stand firm in the calling that was placed in them from the beginning of time. <br />Love you Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17962395509313703071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-37733348766981760812015-03-04T14:40:37.216-07:002015-03-04T14:40:37.216-07:00There are so many home based businesses now, Roxy....There are so many home based businesses now, Roxy. It is wonderful when a woman can find something that she can embrace and do at home. Sadly, there is no insurance connected with those jobs and so many times women work just for that-insurance. Believe me the government mandated insurance does NOTHING to help.<br /><br />I was lucky- I worked the hours my kids were in school (after they started school) and picked them up and came home with them. That was a blessing. Years later , my hubby and I ran our own business so I could work my own schedule.<br /><br />The saddest thing is for those moms that want to come home and can't. xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.com
