I work full time and am a full time single parent so when I read things like that all I can think to myself is "prayerfully someday I'll be able to do that"....I haven't always felt that way though.
I used to think even if I ever did get married again that I would still WANT to work because I do honestly love my career. Not to mention I was raised to be a 'womens libber'...and always believed "no man will ever tell me what to do" etc. etc. But, when I became a Christian I realized that those views totally contradicted the Biblical view of marriage and women in general. I've made a lot of changes in my views over the years and now, I LOOK FORWARD to being able to submit to a man.
I've never really enjoyed cooking, baking, sewing, etc. but I think that's only because I never have time because of my career and the fact that I am a single parent. I think IF I had a husband and didn't have to go to work everyday that I would SO enjoy to cook and clean and do all kinds of things for him and the children. I honestly hope to have that chance one day. (Am I nuts or what?
)
Sorry I took the thread for a spin, I just really liked the poem and original post. God bless.
