New Commitment

I want to be a better housewife. How many times have I said this? More than a thousand, I'm sure. However, I've never really come up with a plan to do so in my own way. Sure, I've watched other women do things and be 'better' than I am. And yes, I've wished and prayed to want to be that way too. But let's be honest. Just because I AM a housewife doesn't mean I AM June Cleaver, right? Right. My last two years of being a housewife has taught me that, if anything!

So... what's my plan?

First, what do I believe makes a good housewife? First let's look at Scripture at the Wife of Noble Character....

*work with eager hands, works vigorously

*provides food for her family

*invests wisely, profitable

*rises early, and works until late

*opens her arms to the poor

*nicely dressed

*full of strength and dignity

*can laugh at the days to come, does not worry*speaks with wisdom with faithful instruction

*watches over the affairs of her household

*productive

*trustworthy

*diligent in homemaking

*prepared

*respectful of her husband

*encourager

*kind

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised." Proverbs 31:30

Whew! I need to get organizing on a good plan!
