A Little Help From My Friends

The way I see it is that there are a LOT of women - good, Christian, out-there-trying-to-make-a-difference women who, at the end of the day, are wiped out and exhausted and feeling, for lack of a better word, alone. (Though the mothers among them will tell you: to be truly alone is a rarity.)

I feel like we often forget that through our amazing Father, we are SISTERS. When I think about the way I am able to talk to my own sister and the honest way my guard is completely down, I wonder why I am not that way with my Christian sisters. Why do I hold back or feel shy or self-conscious?

It is, with this in mind, that this blog has come to be. A few of my sisters and I want to delve into our lives and share and invite you to share with us, as well.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 says there is "nothing new under the sun". I feel that any challenge I may face, some other wife and mother has been there before me. Perhaps she can offer her support or advice or even just her ear and maybe I can do the same for someone else.

My hope is that we can take the modern technologies available to us and form stronger bonds with one another and also to our Lord. While achieving the near perfection of the woman in Proverbs 31 may be impossible, I think we may all get a little closer if we have one another to lean on along the way.
