Biblical Womanhood: I can do all things through Christ...

Hello Crystal,

I really like your posts and am working hard to become the wife and mother Christ wants me to be. Thank you for your insight as I strive to do this!

I was thinking as I read your letter on feminism... I think that a lot of women don't even know the amount of feminist bologna that they have swallowed and spew out when someone challenges their 'pet' ideas. I know that there are more than a few people who dole out this nonsense with their agenda attached, but personally, I have been confronted by the fact that I have accepted some of these ideas without realizing that radical feminism was the source of them.

I read The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands by Dr. Laura and was amazed (and a bit chagrined) at how many times I saw my own behavior in the stories that she has in there!

Even when I began reading your blog, a couple weeks ago, I can see how my selfishness has caused me to buy into this notion that I am too busy/tired/smart/overwhelmed to meet a lot of my husband's needs.

I have a lot of work to do to change this in myself (sometimes it's takes effort to even WANT to), but I am confident that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! And I see how just the small steps I have taken have altered my marriage for the better...I see great things for us as I continue to improve! We haven't had a fight in weeks! And this is BIG!!!

It is painful to give up MY desires and MY 'needs' and MY agenda for something that, on its own, means so little to me... but I am finding joy knowing that it is important to Matt, my kids, and to Christ that I am doing the tasks of keeping house... even though I don't like it!

So, I appreciate your stand for the Truth in spite of the opposition! Keep it up!

-Faith W.
