Blessed Homemaking: A Christian Home

A Christian Home

"Christianity makes a home — a Heaven! A Christian home where all is love and tenderness and devotion — is the sweetest and most sacred spot on earth! A home where Christianity is crowned a queen in every heart — is an Eden. The heart of God is filled with delight as He looks down upon such a home! His presence dwells there, and causes this home to be a beautiful oasis in this wilderness world of sin."
- Charles Orr

Oh, what a blessing to have an oasis from this sin-sick world! Are you making your home a place to bless your family? Do you try to make it a little piece of heaven on earth? A pleasant mood and cheerfulness in your duties will help to make a refuge in your home for your husband and children to dwell. Welcome home your husband with a big hug and kiss. Tidy up before he comes home...your house, yourself, and the children. Fill your home with songs of praise to God, lifting up a thankful heart to your Creator above.

Nobody can take away the song in your heart that is praise to our God.

I agree Mrs.Q. We must set the tone for our home and show our children and husband we know how blessed we are. We must show our husband how much we appreicate his hard work by doing our best to have him come home to a warm and peaceful home. Linda

“Every one must have remarked how pleasant is that household in which a cheerful spirit of energy is cultivated by the mistress and mother. It is a pleasant thing to dwell with one who is not troubled by trifling annoyances, who is skilled in looking at the bright side of things, and hoping for the best; with one who believes that all the ways of the Lord are right, and who attaches a deep importance to duty. Such a one will work willingly, in the belief that God has appointed both her lot and her duties, and it is surprising how many obstacles are met and overcome by such a spirit.”

1 Timothy 4:7-11

Thank God, O women for the quietude of your home, and that you are queen in it. Men come at eventide to the home; but all day long you are there, beautifying it, sanctifying it, adorning it, blessing it.

Better be there than wear a queen's coronet. Better be there than carry the purse of a princess. It may be a very humble home. There may be no carpet on the floor. There may be no pictures on the wall. There may be no silks in the wardrobe; but, by your faith in God, and your cheerful demeanor, you may garniture that place with more splendor than the upholsterer's hand ever kindled.

I work for a King. He has put me in charge of his home. When He comes to see how I have managed His possessions and His children, I do not want to be found wanting. I want to do my best. Everything I have is on loan from Him. I have room and board and a job to do, but it is all for Him. Therefore I want to dress my best and do my best in all my work. I also want to be creative, for this is a sincere attempt to glorify Him and His beautiful creation. How I manage my home is a form of worship to Him.
