At Home: being faithful with what we have

June 8, 2022June 24, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ 2 Comments

There is a dream I come back to. When I was in late high school, I dreamt that my home was on fire and everything was burning. As I left the house I grabbed my Bible and nothing else. We lived, but none of our other possessions made it. I come back to this dream … Continue reading At Home: being faithful with what we have

Femininity: on physical appearance

May 25, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ Leave a comment

I haven’t devoted an entire blog post to the physical appearance aspect of femininity, but it has been weighing on my mind for a few weeks. Admittedly, it has taken that long to grapple with the topic before I felt comfortable to talk about it. Similarly to when I spoke about health last week, the … Continue reading Femininity: on physical appearance

Femininity: Authenticity in Health

May 19, 2022June 24, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ 1 Comment

I’m sitting here with eggs on toast and a blanket on my lap. The days have been sunny and warm compared to the early mornings, but sometimes it’s nice to feel cosy. I finished sewing my Christmas blanket, which is very exciting! It’s ready in time to use as winter creeps in, and I’m so … Continue reading Femininity: Authenticity in Health

At Home: Washing the Dishes

February 16, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ Leave a comment

I must confess, I enjoy washing the dishes. While I like a clean bathroom, I do not enjoy cleaning it. It is perhaps the task I struggle most to get through – though it is done every week and before guests come over, and it never takes as long as I think it does. But … Continue reading At Home: Washing the Dishes

Femininity: feeling at home

January 22, 2022January 22, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ 4 Comments

I must confess, I have felt unsettled in my living arrangements for the past few months. While I am trying not to complain and learning to find joy in God, home is where I spend most of my time and if I don’t feel comfortable there, it affects me deeply. There are numerous reasons I … Continue reading Femininity: feeling at home

Femininity: being at rest

January 19, 2022January 21, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ 4 Comments

While laziness is not an attribute we should embrace, there is, of course, a big need for rest in our lives. This comes into play both physically and inwardly. For both our physical and spiritual replenishment, God has given us the sabbath, a Biblical concept that many live out differently. While I am not an … Continue reading Femininity: being at rest

Femininity: on staying at home

January 6, 2022January 21, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ 4 Comments

I confess, I have not always been the most confident when discussing my interests and goals in life. Last year, I worked part-time in a bookstore while I studied full-time at university. To some, it was just retail; a stepping stone to greater things. To me, it was the best thing I’d done in my … Continue reading Femininity: on staying at home

Femininity: A List of Books

December 1, 2021 ~ Sarah ~ Leave a comment

A couple of weeks ago I posted a list of movies that feature women who showcase their femininity in different, inspiring ways, and I wanted to do the same with books! Of course, there are so many books I could talk about, but I’ll try to keep this relatively short. If you have any others, … Continue reading Femininity: A List of Books

Femininity: A List of Movies

November 17, 2021January 21, 2022 ~ Sarah ~ 5 Comments

After last week’s heavier topic, I thought I’d discuss something a bit more fun for this post! I’ve compiled a list of fictional movies I enjoy that feature women I look up to for how they showcase their femininity, each in different ways. I’ll compile a list of books in the following weeks as well, … Continue reading Femininity: A List of Movies

Femininity: Wholesome Living

November 10, 2021 ~ Sarah ~ 3 Comments

Wholesome living, for me, is guarding our hearts and minds from vulgarity and impurity, that which does not glorify and honour God. Cultivating a feminine and wholesome life will involve turning away from some things that might be considered normal or successful to the world. This past week, I have felt called from God to … Continue reading Femininity: Wholesome Living
