A Strong Christian Woman…. Talks to Her Mom Every Morning
By adavant on Oct 29, 2007 in Alyssa's Journal
Ok, so maybe it’s just my idea, but today I began a “cross-blog conversation” with another Christian business woman here online, Regina Baker of Business by Grace, who believes in Christian business owners doing “business by the BOOK without compromise”.
She and I are exchanging questions and conversation via one of our blogs. I am using my newest blog, Writer for Hire Blog, a site for my writing and Regina is using her Business by Grace Blog. See our conversation or the beginnings of it here, where I asked Regina about her typical morning routine. In her answer I noticed that she talks to her mom every morning, something I have always done since marrying, until this year, however it is because of circumstances out of both of our control (an earlier work schedule for her, taking my son to school for me) . I feel that a close relationship with another Godly woman in our lives helps to improve our understanding of being a strong Christian Titus 2 woman. After all Titus 2:3-5 teaches us to,
” be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.”
How else will we learn but by example, by others showing us the way. For me that was my mother, and still is, before that, my mother did the same for her, and my grandmother had the same thing done for her by her mother. In fact, even growing up I remember my mother talking to her grandmother on the phone daily. I try to talk to my mom’s mother on the phone weekly, though I don’t manage every day, I wish I could.
A special connection between a mom and a daughter, in my opinion it is a link to a special relationship with our Heavenly Father. We are taught by example, we learn by example, it is the “trickle down theory”. We influence one generation, which influences the next, which influences the next, you get the picture.
What are you trickling down to your daughter today?
