I love how more women are becoming bolder with encouraging Christian wives to embrace their God given calling without allowing others to make them feel shame for doing so. Learn how to be a wise and prudent wife.

Although some may say otherwise, many women feel the pressure to justify their decision to be a homemaker. Add not having any children in the home (for whatever reason), and that’s a whole other problem in itself. You don’t have to feel like you made the wrong decision to choose homemaking as your calling. You also don’t have to currently have children at home to justify being a homemaker. There are many reasons why that is the case, but it does not make any difference. Quiet the voices all around you, be at peace, and boldly live out God’s plan for you despite what others may think.

Have you been asked by well meaning ladies (even Christian), “what do you do all day”? The side eyed looks, and shaking of the head as if you’ve done a horrible sin is truly disrespectful to your freedom to choose what’s best for your own life and family. No where in the bible is it condemned or forbidden for a woman to not work outside her home. Throughout scripture you see the opposite yet many try to pull the old Proverbs 31 woman card (and any other scripture to justify their thinking) to make you think otherwise. Many have taken scriptures out of context to come up with unbiblical thinking on this issue. It’s really sad how we as homemakers are questioned and judged (instead of respected and encouraged) for our choice to make being a keeper at home our fulltime career. We’ve all heard the “what ifs” and all the exceptions but we have our convictions and we live this life by faith. Listen to the wisdom in this young lady. She’s wise beyond her years.
Here is another one that encourages even those of us who do not or no longer are raising young children:
A wise woman won’t stop praying, believing, and throw in the towel. Wise women don’t give up just because things aren’t going the way they want it to. It’s all about growing in holiness and in our relationship with the Father.

Here is a description of how biblical motherhood looks to me. These are not the only scriptures that is the picture of mothering God’s way. These are a few of what I keep coming back to and continue to strive for as a bible believing mom. I pray you will ponder these things. Let’s ask for help from the Holy Spirit to be the type of mothers God has called us to be. No matter the age of our children, we can continue to grow as godly mothers through each stage.
Proverbs 31:25-30 (KJV)
25. Strength and honour are her clothing;
and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26. She openeth her mouth with wisdom;
and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27. She looketh well to the ways of her household,
and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28. Her children arise up, and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29. Many daughters have done virtuously,
but thou excellest them all.
30. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain:
but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
Proverbs 14:1 (KJV)
Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.

I love learning about Biblical Womanhood from older but wise women. I’m very careful who I let in my ear because I want what I’m being taught to be only what God’s will is for me. He has already laid that out in scripture. As a young wife and mother I had no one around to teach me what that was. None of the women in my family want or desire to be biblical women. Even in church it was hard to find older women who fit within the Titus 2 description.
It took lots of prayer and searching. I’m thankful that God eventually led me to older wiser women online and later at a different church who I could learn from. We must bend to the will of our heavenly Father. We must embrace the roles that God has designed for us women no matter what the culture says. We are not our own if we are professing believers. God has a plan for His children’s lives. Not our will but His will be done in us.
