#SheSunday



I did NOT make up this scripture. It's right there - in the book that some say is belittling and degrading to women. Throughout the Holy Bible the value of woman is elevated and defended. Dig into the history and the actual context of the passages that seem a little blurry and you will quickly discover the affection and purpose God has for women. 

The Lord tasks the women with proclaiming the word he speaks - trust me, this is HUGE. God is commissioning women to be his mouthpiece. 

The complaints about God's view on women extend to the Apostle Paul's attitude toward women. And just as God is misunderstood, so is Paul. After all, he credits learning about God and relationship with God to women. In fact, contrary to popular misunderstanding Paul was actually a champion of women.






So today #SheSunday really is all about the she's. The place of honor they hold in the sight of God and the importance they add to the function of this world.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
