I work no more than two or three days a week. All my kids are grown and out of the house. It's a challenge even being gone that long after a lifetime as a stay-at-home mom. If I hadn't been working though, there are some major bills that would have gone unpaid. It's a season. Just a season. I'm thankful that I do have a lot of flexibility even if the pay is poor.<br />Be blessed friend!<br />Laura of Harvest Lane CottageMrs. Laura Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17334381585683324912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-89976256806112411292017-06-06T03:23:11.379-06:002017-06-06T03:23:11.379-06:00I really enjoyed this post.

Now I have the blessing (since our children are all grown) to work part-time, but its helping our daughter in her home with the grandchildren - what a blessing !!! I thought your words were very encouraging, carefully chosen, and full of graceful wisdom.

Alas, I have no prior experience in the work force as I have been a stay-at-home wife and mom for 35 years. I applied for several jobs to no avail. My prayer is that if there is something the Lord would like me to do from home that would bring in a little extra income for a few things, that He will show me what it is I am to do. It's a hard place to be.Anne Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16326796364748948854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-44029251332548335962016-11-15T13:00:44.368-07:002016-11-15T13:00:44.368-07:00Wonderful post Roxy!

I understand the dangers to women in the workforce and the struggled to maintain the most important things..being a homemaker and help meet to my husband. I encourage all those women that do not need to work to be home. There is such a blessing to this role and even though the world down plays it, it is of great importance to the family. I am so thankful the Lord Jesus has made a way for me to now be home. I prayed for many years for this, and the Lord is the God who hears and answers prayer!

I see a world that is changing and I try not to put women in a place of guilt or struggle as this is not what I ever intended to do in my blog!<br />We need grace and support to be happy at home when we are not away from it, via work or taking care of others!<br /><br />Blessings, Roxyliving from glory to gloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123718369605106023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-38315240645197624972016-11-15T07:18:36.699-07:002016-11-15T07:18:36.699-07:00I never got to be a stay at home mom and wife.

Our home should never be on the public stage for all to see and hear about. Excellent advice my friend!

I worked because there was a need and because I could not have children. I envied those who had the blessing of having children and the luxury of being able to stay home and keep house. I felt sorry for mothers who had to work to supplement their husband's incomes and I greatly admire the single moms who MUST work and be mom, dad, provider. For women who feel the need to have a career and work for their own fulfillment, I believe that is their business, however, I also think the generations since WWII have suffered as a result of so many women being in the work force. I also think that families these days have to have two incomes because of all the things they feel they must have. Huge homes, expensive cars, etc., but I also know the cost of living has skyrocketed. Now I am 67 years old. If I should find that I must go out in the work force again, I will do whatever I must do. To everything there is a season.
