Femininity- what is it?

 

This topic got brought up here at The Stay at home Missionary. my response got to be too long- so I thought I would share and post it on my blog.

I wish I could say I have clear picture of what true Femininity is. Unfortunately it is so distorted by the Worlds view, and  then a feministic view which was portrayed by my mother.

So what is femininity in my eyes?

Femininity- is a gentle soul, who speaks with kindness always, not only when there is company.

  • One who is creative in everything she does, sewing, cleaning, and cooking.
  • One who dresses in clothing that shows she is beautiful, delicate and pretty.  I do not envision just dresses in this.
  • One who loves the Lord with all of heart and lives with wisdom at her side.
  • One whose true radiance and glow is from the Holy Spirit.
  • One who is Humble

Are these all realistic? Can you be all these things?

What is femininity in your eyes?

    I myself am learning daily what femininity is. I think it is all that you listed! Especially the radiance glow from the Holy Spirit.
    I know the Bible tells us all to be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger, but I find this such a wonder when I see it in a woman....I am by no means there!
    I have a long way to go, as my idea of femininity and what the world & my mother has taught me is conflicting. Oh to be God's woman and to walk worthy of Him daily. I have a long way to go!

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
