A tent raising in my backyard marks the beginning of my girl's journey away from home.

Women in the Bible were sturdy, living their day to day callings, hoping for the promises of God to be evident in their lives. They pressed forward in faith, particularly when things on this earth were difficult, particularly when people on this earth made them feel less than. They pressed on, knowing God had plans, believing in His promises.

There is blessing in going into the most usual of places in anticipation of what God has in store.

Know the heart with which the mouth speaks, before you get your feelings hurt.
