Word Filled Wednesday

Sorry to just be posting this...It was in my drafts unposted. I find it encouraging none the less! I hope you do too!




Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,


the fruit of the womb a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the children of one's youth.

Blessed is the man

who fills his quiver with them!

He shall not be put to shame

when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
—Psalm 127:3-5




Quotes for the Heart

It is painfully obvious that I have yet again missed several days of being able to write and as my opportunity has given itself has not fallen on a Monday or a Thursday leaning itself towards writing based upon one of my challenge I have decided to spend some time blog hopping and posting some quotes that I find particularily encouraging, inspiring and motivating! Enjoy.

"Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is place in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into it's soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no others hands the sacred and holy trust given to her." -JR Miller
From: A Wise Woman Builds Her Home



"Wise is the woman who cherishes each season and cheerfully anticipates the next." anonymous

"A gentle and quiet spirit is not only imperishable; it is precious in the sight of God. It's also one of the hardest qualities to cultivate. Far from a sign of weakness, a gentle and quiet spirit is the sign of a woman who is strong in faith, mind and character." --Anna Sofia & Elizabeth Botkin From: A Wise Woman Builds Her Home


A quote from At the Well that I like:
"Cherish the season you stand in. It may be a season that you embrace with joy, or it may be a season much like winter, that while dark and cold, holds promises. We must cling to the words in Daniel, that in each and every season the Lord is faithful and His wisdom and knowledge wait for those who are seeking."


"Women, whose lives are harder, need jokes more than men and make them more often." Paul Johnson
 
Time and money on things that only temporarily fill our cups, then leave us completely empty... You'd think we'd learn a thing or two from the sisters who've walked this path before us... We've been trying since the beginning of time to find something to 'fill us up,' and since the dawn of time, only ONE thing really EVER has worked... from: All You Have to Give

"God specifically tells us that we are to think about whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admireable, excellent or praiseworthy. If our thoughts are constantly focusing on those things, we are living life through the lens of the Holy Spirit." found at 160 Acre Woods
