How to Avoid Cat Fights with MOM!
Moms. They can be totally awesome, totally awkward and totally hard to get along with! Now, my mom and I can be the best, best of friends. At other times it can feel like two lionesses prowling around the house! Come August, it will be 20 years since the day I was born and met my mother… And I can’t tell you how thankful and grateful I am to call her mine. She’s everything I hope and wish to be..
Girl or Woman, Which One Are You?
I was in town the other day driving around with my younger sister when I spotted the most mind boggling bumper sticker I have ever seen. Now, I have traveled a lot and I have seen many bumper stickers. Some were humorous, others rude, and some biblical, but this topped them all because it caused me to become angry-over a sticker! It said “HISTORY NEVER REMEMBERED WOMEN WHO BEHAVED”. I sat and..
5 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Got Married
I always wondered what my last day as a single girl would look like. I wondered what it would be like to fall asleep the night before my wedding knowing it would be the last time I would ever sleep alone. Maybe you’ve thought the same thing too.
After eight months of being engaged to my fiancé, Zack, I finally knew what it was like. I remember lying in my bed the night before my wedding day..
A Lovely Atmosphere at Home
Cooking, cleaning, dishes, laundry, children and chores day in and day out can get discouraging and tiresome. We wake up everyday and are faced with all of the same duties as yesterday. This makes it even easier to lose the vision of virtuous, beautiful, homemakers. We forget why we do what we do. Our mission here at A Lovely Calling is to keep that vision alive and refreshed. Our homes and all..
Invisible
Hello beautiful girls. I wanted to share with you some deep and personal thoughts. Lately I’ve been confronted by a lot of young girls who have been hurt in some minor ways but also some seriously hurtful ways. These girls have either contemplated or committed the act of self-harm. My hearts breaks and cries for these sweet darling girls who have so little confidence in themselves. All I want..
True Love in it’s most Radiant And Glorious Form!
Today, some 2,000 years ago, a Man clothed in majesty and splendor, covered in the blood of our sins, took the full weight of the worlds sin then, now, and forever upon Himself; and chose to be the perfect offering in our place, and died for our Salvation. That we may be one with Him and sit near Him, guiltless, in His heavenly Kingdom. He has loved us with an everlasting love but “All..
A Whole New Perspective on the Proverbs 31 Woman
Proverbs 31…We know it like the back of our hand. We’ve read, studied and dissected this lone chapter of the Bible set apart specifically for women. I personally grew up listening to my mom read this chapter over and over and listened to her teach it to women. I’ve done countless studies on the “Proverbs 31 Woman” and tried earnestly to meet the expectations set for women in this..
One of Those Days
We all have “one of those days” sometimes – days we simply hope we can survive, while still maintaining some portion of our sanity.
If you’re having one of those days (and even if you’re not), I want to encourage you to lean on God for your strength.
Being a mom, daughter, or sister is hard sometimes, but don’t forget that God has a purpose for ALL of your days; even when it’s “one of those..
When You are Feeling Guilty
“I don’t know whats wrong with me.” “I feel so bad about it that I can’t tell anyone.” “Why did I have to do that?” “I feel like such a wicked person.”
All of these statements and more have been felt and said by everyone. We all have messed up, said and done things we wish we hadn’t. Sweet girl, I want to help you if you feel this way! I know how it feels to feel condemned and angry at..
Are You Saving or Killing?
“Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Sometimes we can judge people. We don’t mean to, but sometimes we do. Words kill. And if people could hear what we were thinking about we would all be murderers. We judge people without even thinking sometimes. Walking through Walmart, at the park,..
