Time-Warp Wife -- In her testimony, she tells how her husband found out she had previously had an affair, but in all their struggles, they stayed together. Now she has an incredible blog that is an encouragement to married women struggling to be the wife God has called us to be.
We are THAT family -- I LOVE this blog and the amazing things this woman had done. She has help start an organization called "The Mercy House". It is a maternity house in Kenya that aids unwed pregnant women living in poverty. So many women in that situation often have (or are forced to have) abortions, which not only ends a baby's life, but often times ends the mother's life due to complications. But another reason I love this blog is because she is an ordinary mother, and she often portrays that in her blog. You know, the everyday children/marriage/home struggles. Such an encouragement to me.
The Unplugged Family -- This blog is a new one I've just started following. She calls it "unplugged" because (in her words) -- "Unplugging to me means taking the plunge and daring to pull the 'connector' to this world and this culture...and cling to something more. Cling to Jesus and His views on how we should live." In her testimony, she shares that she became pregnant with her first child with her boyfriend (whom three months later became her husband) and how they struggled those first few years of marriage. Years later, they have a solid marriage, three children, and live in a 900 sq.ft. farm house, TV-free, and just living the simple life. She also helps with a ministry called "Nanchu: Nuture a Child Uganda".
Definitely check these blogs out!
Also, on the topic of "God sees the real me", Daysping has this beautiful wall hanging for sale, marked down from $40.00 to just $9.99. I love this and will probably get this to add to our "girl" room! You can click on the picture to be taken to the site.
