~Brighten the corner where you are!~

A Happy Monday evening to you. I was thinking here recently that it's easy for we as wives and mothers to wonder how we are ministering to God when it seems all we get done is washing the same ol' laundry, dishes, and floors.  But the devil wants us to forget that our MINISTRY IS our husband, children, and home!
~Phillip snapped this picture of me recently as I was setting the table for breakfast.~

 1Co 7:34  says: There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

Trying to keep our house tidy, making meals, keeping our family's clothes clean, and being a good Wife and Mommy is exactly where GOD has placed me to minister!  I'm to Bloom Where I am planted. =)
So, blogging Sister...fellow Wife and Mommy...keep encouraged, go bake something fall-ish, and know you have a VERY IMPORTANT MINISTRY RIGHT. WHERE. YOU. ARE =)

I've been reminded of the scripture, "...but through love serve one another." (Gal. 5:13) What a great reminder!!
