Femininity is in tatters. The family has been split apart. Churches worldwide are weakening. What must be done to regain the purity of a life that seeks to honour Jesus? How can we re-capture the depth of His love for us? How can femininity and true beauty be regained?

It starts with the Gospel. It starts with an almighty, sovereign God who “did not spare His own Son,” a Saviour who “for the joy set before Him endured the Cross,” a Holy Spirit “who is in you,” empowering you to do His will.

The Gospel is Jesus Christ

He came, He gave
He is mighty to save
To all who will repent and believe

This blog is dedicated to re-capturing femininity; femininity as God designed it. Femininity in our culture is desperately lost. Scripture testifies of this in Proverbs 31. “An excellent wife, who can find? For her worth is far above jewels.” A wife of excellence is more rare that precious gems. In the 21st century, this is sadly apparent.

So let us raise the bar to a level of excellence that is rare and mysterious. Let us live our growing years with patience, our single years with dedication, our waiting years with service, our longing years with purity, our married years with faithfulness, and our entire lives under the blessings of our eternal covenant with the Prince of our souls, Jesus Christ.

May He have all the glory!

A Sad Cycle


Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Over and over again I've seen a destructive cycle
that leads women into bondage. First, a lie is planted in our mind.

"When I was six, I don't remember who said it, but I was told that I
had no right to be born."

Nancy: Instead of countering the lie with the truth of God's Word, we
dwell on it and start to believe it.

"I thought I was stupid--that I wasn't normal."

Nancy: Eventually we act on the lie . . .

"I withdrew and had a really hard time talking with people."

Nancy: . . .and we find ourselves in bondage.

"I wanted to go to sleep and never wake up."

Nancy: Now, here's the truth. When God sent Jesus to this earth to
bear your sin, He declared the value of your soul to be greater than
the value of the whole world. First John says, "How great is the love
the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of
God!"

And that's the truth.
