On the Volleyball court, I was never known to be one who played only my position. When men play their position, women can play their position with honor. Wifing and mothering is an honorable job. It feels like nothing in the midst of the days. When God is using the men and they are in his hand, it is tempting to leave the Lord's hip, to want to become a weapon instead of a sheath. You can get hurt doing what you are not intended to do. You cannot be effective as a sword, if you are a sheath. When God is sharpening the swords and doing His bidding He needs His women supportive and effectively keeping the homefires burning brightly{to change the analogy}.
I want to fight in the war with the men. Just because the world has a backward perspective, we don't have to be. We miss the reality of the beauty of the work that God intends for His women.
Jesus, help me support the work in prayer and praise and see You use each piece of Your work for Your own glory.
