Lies Women Believe

This book has been life changing for me. It is eye opening to see how many lies we have bought into simply because society put them out there for us to ponder. What we "feed" our minds is a very dangerous thing. When we let society be the driving force behind our decisions and thoughts we can venture into dangerous territory.

Just think about how many rules, laws, thought and agendas have changed in the years that you have been alive. So, why would we allow something that is constantly changeing to be the driving force behind our values and beliefs for ourselves and our families? I believe in the solid and unchangeable word of God as truth.

This book uses the word of God, the Bible, to show truths that contradict what society has taught us. We as women are especially vulnerable to believing lies I believe simply because of our passionate hearts! How often has a loved one been late to get home or call you? Where does your mind tend to go if you haven't heard from them? Car accident? Death? Jail? Trouble? WHY???? Our minds take us into some scary territory based on little truth and a whole lot of emotion!

I would encourage any Bible believing woman to read, study and ponder the truths of this book! And I would even encourage someone who may not believe in the Bible to read this book. at the very least it may get you to think about why you believe what you do and see areas that you may be believing a lie simply because you heard or saw it somewhere and you never challenged the thought.

If you have already read this book, tell me what you thought. I love to hear others' opinions on great books!

Side note - the teenage version "Lies Young Women Believe" is also amazing!

Sonya Jean

This is a song I wrote for my sister and few years ago. Here is part of her story that I told in another post: My sister's story Sonya Jean I wish I had one more day, I wish I had just one more day. If someone had told me that this was the way; I would have wished for just one more day. The good Lord giveth, and He taketh away, I wish I had just one more day. Such short time on Earth, you had to live; And in that time you had so much to give. A mother, sister and a daughter, A spirit filled with fun and laughter. As sickness came to take you away, I held tight to every day. I wish I had one more day, I wish I had just one more day. If someone had told me that this was the way; I would have wished for just one more day. The good Lord giveth, and He taketh away, I wish I had just one more day. So many things I should have said, Sitting there beside your bed. The most important we covered, The day you prayed and Jesus ...

Loving an MLM, seriously?!?!?!

I am the girl who likes to be home, like never leave home, have peace and quiet, and am afraid of people ;) I have never "sold" anything in my life (before a year ago), and I rarely tell people about things I love because I just assumed they really didn't care. I have always worked from home, but at a "real" business. The hubs and I own an electrical contracting business and I have always run the home office. How many hubs get to go home with the secretary 😀 Well, I am the last person I would have ever expected to fall in love with a MLM business. I am very skepticle of things and like I said....PEOPLE! But, as I often do, I have surprised myself. I got started with Young Living as part of a 15 year journey to get some answers and freedom for a hubs that suffered from severe chronic migraines. Little did I know that this company would radically change our lives! Not only have we tackled the migraines, we have learned as a family and healt...

Momcation

As a mom, I feel like my number one job is always to take care of everyone else. I rarely, if ever, have someone babysit my kiddos and I really never go anywhere without them. They are MY gifts from God and therefore they are MY responsibility. This has always been my thought process for 15 years of marriage. When I would hear mom's talk about monthly date nights or mom's night out or a vacation without the kids I would gasp! Yup--totally was judgemental. Truth--as women, we most often are! But then something changed. I would laughingly say it was Young Living, but it was a strange by-product of joining Young Living that I never expected.......FRIENDS! I met some of the most wonderful women ever. I also started to learn more and more about self care and how advantageous it is to my entire family when I take care of me sometimes, even if for a short time. Last year I took my first ever vacation without my family! I was a w...
