I allowed myself to do something today that society might frown upon. I allowed myself time to daydream. Yes, I know I could have probably been doing something productive like writing this blog (okay, so maybe a little more productive) but I didn't. I have been productive most of the day so this evening when I got home from work, ate dinner and settled in I allowed my mind to ponder the person I dream of being as a wife and mom. I imagine myself in the kitchen, with an apron (old school but I like it) cooking and cleaning for my family. I imagine myself planting and nurturing a beautiful flower garden, cutting grass, etc. Now my family might look at this and laugh but the truth is I am starting to be someone who really enjoys doing house work and yard work when no on is looking. Shhhhh... maybe they won't read this ;)
I thought of this because I want more than anything to be a Proverbs 31 wife. I want my life, even now, to glorify and honor God in all I say, think, and do. I don't just want to talk the talk, I want to walk the walk too. I want to be a godly wife and mother. I want to be a godly employee. I know this probably seems far fetched right now seeing as how I am neither married or a mother, and probably nowhere close, but I wouldn't say that it is a bad thing to figure this out now so that I can work hard at being that woman while I am single, and grow in these ways as time goes on.
I want to shine brighter everyday for Jesus. I know that not everyone is going to like it but it doesn't really matter what everyone else thinks now does it? I won't stand before them one day but I WILL be standing before God, and when I stand before Him I want to be able to say that I did all I could for Him while I was here. I want God to welcome me into His Kingdom.
I guess I should get off here now. Feel free to comment below:) May God bless you and yours with a good and restful night:)
