Welcome to my blog!

I have just completed my A Level exams, and decided to make this page to post my OCR Religious Studies notes and A* essays.

Most of my notes were made from the textbook, so they will be very similar, although I tried to put in some extra reading where I could.

Essays were marked by teachers who also mark for the OCR exam board.

The routine of a virtuous woman to inspire your own

She wakes up earlier than all others at home - (Proverbs 31:15)

Dedicates her first moments in the morning to God (Proverbs 31:30)

Prepares the family meal with calm and organize her daily tasks (Proverbs 31:15)

Takes care of her appearance - not be complimented by people outside, but by her own family (Proverbs 31:25)

Takes care of her family needs and do the daily maintenance of her home (Proverbs 31:27)

Works with effort and dedication. Wherever she goes she’s a testimony of her family’s good reputation (Proverbs 31:13)

Even at night she’ll save some energy and liveliness to use with her husband (Proverbs 31:18)

Christian Siriano Summer/Spring 2024 RTW

[rabbits-of-negative-euphoria]

"contentment in singleness" doesn't require you to stop desiring marriage & family. it doesn't require you to stop pursuing marriage & family.

Christians are called to be content in any situation--that doesn't mean we abandon all our good desires and concrete goals.

contentment is to trust/rest in God's promises to love you, provide for you, and make you holy.

you can do all of those things, and earnestly want and seek a husband.

He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord. Proverbs 18:22

"Favor from the Lord" meaning, of course, blessing as the result of a life molded by wisdom.

Now, how can one find a good wife without seeking? Seek without wanting? And how can wisdom and contentment be mutually exclusive?

Why do men value female sweetness?

He already deals with testosterone all the time, with stress and tension... they are biologically prepared for conflict... The masculine man is dominant, strong and a provider...

He takes the lead because that's how he feels useful. He likes to provide and protect because it makes him feel needed. But no man feels like doing that for someone equal or stronger... Therefore, men look for something in women that they lack.

He is looking for a woman capable of bringing order, beauty and peace to his life. And when a man finds a woman like that... he goes to great lengths to win her over. And to live this there is no other way than to become more feminine...

The woman's sweetness nourishes the man. It is cultivated on a daily basis, it is not a technique that you use for convenience. People can tell when you're pretending, especially because it becomes that thing that's forced and not at all natural... no one can keep that mask on for long.

A sweet way only enchants when accompanied by loving gestures, a warm look and kind attitudes, what you do for others... That's why sweetness must come from within... it's the outside that reflects the inside - never the other way around.

If a woman only feeds on negative thoughts, it becomes much more difficult to be sweet, because that's not what she has within herself... there's no way to give someone else something that she doesn't even have within herself... you know? It's a natural process...

A woman can only be feminine and sweet when she dedicates herself to seeking the truth in her life, when she makes an effort to cultivate the virtues she needs and is able to authentically express all the beauty she has cultivated within herself.

*some panic is slowly creeping into me.......*

My A Level results (AS) come out tomorrow and I'm kind of nervous at the thought of it. I prayed to God that I'll get good grades, that I'll get the grades I need for uni (a final 3A's) and to somehow tell me that I will, that I don't need to worry. So I'm trying to do that. I'm trusting God on this one (especially that since my prayer, if anybody asked about the coming exam results they made comments like 'you'll be fine' 'you've done well' 'you've got nothing to worry about' so I'm seeing that as God's sign that I have gotten high grades.)
