Womanhood
Sorry it’s taken me so long to get anything up today. It’s been crazy! I didn’t even babysit today, but it seems like the day just got away with me and I spent the whole thing either out of the apartment or in the kitchen.
Today’s blog is an introduction to next Monday’s blog. Why? Because it is almost 8 PM and a new episode of House is coming on! Plus, I desperately need to work on my daughter’s Halloween costume.
There was an awesome talk given by Margaret D. Nadauld who at the time was the General President for the Young Women in my Church . This calling as President was over the entire Church world-wide, not just a group of girls from one or two congregations
“Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity.”
Think about this quote and we’ll discuss it more at length next week. Please remember to leave your comments, thoughts, and suggestions. To all those who have been commenting, THANK YOU!!
I love that quote. K. and I were watching a “reality” TV show ad and we talking about what a horrible thing it is that we encourge the worst in people and call it entertainment!
