one thing about biblical womanhood posts that I’ve noticed is that when it’s talked about, they still strive to emphasize the aspects that were remarkable situations— they leave a faint taste of feminism in my mouth because they focus on Deborah, the woman raised up to lead because the men wouldn’t; they focus on Jael, the woman who kills a man with a tent spike; a woman dropping a stone, Rahab smuggling Israelites and defying authorities—

And all of these are raised up and praised as the Biblical woman with just a hint of look!! We’re strong!! We’re in the thick of it!! We’re not submissive doormats!!

In one sense, this is true. These are great, godly women. They are our examples.

But in all our striving to remind people of biblical women’s strength, we cannot forget who else are our examples.

We cannot forget Ruth. Ruth who humbled herself and remains loyal with Naomi, submitting herself to God and trusting in His provision. Ruth who lays herself at Boaz’s feet and who sacrifices possibly being a widow soon again for the sake of Naomi’s care and God’s provision.

Martha— one who serves and who desires to serve

Mary— one who sits at Christ’s feet to learn and desires to hear the words of her Lord

Lydia— who insisted on hosting and serving the Lord’s messengers; who would be possibly sacrificing her wealth being a part of the church in Philippi and serving the church

Mary— Jesus’ mother who submitted herself to God’s will, submitted herself to the scorn of her peers, who trusted the Lord to fulfill His promises and whose soul was pierced with a sword

The strength of godly wives who submit though their flesh and curse is contrary— the strength of women who order their homes, are humble, are helpers, are mothers, are servers, are menders, are teachers, are caregivers, are sellers and makers, are students of our Lord.

Don’t confuse gentleness for weakness; nor tenderness for a lack of strength.

Women are strong.

And it’s not because of tent spikes.

If I was part of the mcu (pt. 49)

me: boooo >:(

me: Booooooo D:<

Bucky’s Therapist: we’re not going to get anywhere if you just complain this whole time.

Me: GOOD>:(

Bucky’s Therapist: you’re here for a reason, do you know why?

Me: *looooong sigh* *mutters* because living through all this and suddenly shifting dimensions and now being shot are all considered serious trauma and the government wants to keep tabs on me because I legally don’t exist.

Bucky’s therapist: what was that last bit?

Me: nothing:3

Bucky’s Therapist: *takes out notebook*

Me: *also takes out notebook*

Her:

Me:

Her: where do you want to sta—

me: *writing down*

you hear faint rustling behind you, but when you turn there's no one there. there is, however, a fancy-looking envelope whose aesthetics are somewhat ruined by the chicken-scratch writing on it that reads:

challenge accepted. be warned that this is not a battle i plan to let you win :) - the actual better half of delulu duo

p.s. had to get stephen's help to get this into the envelope, don't bother trying to put it back in

you take out its contents to reveal an artwork far too large to have reasonably fit in the envelope.

Do you still care to talk about connections and coincidences with Nick and Taylor and general things? (Like Taylor’s connection to the 911 cast by being friends of friends etc nothing deeply personal). I found one out that the school Nick went to was prestigious and all of that but I didn’t know about it’s history that it was founded I believe by a man who was once employed or worked under the same king that Nick’s character George has a relationship with in Mary & George. I might have the details wrong but that’s the gist. But either way I feel I’m the last person to know that because I saw someone on twitter and other places bring it up. It’s an interesting coincidence of nick and this role especially after George was mentioned in the rwrb book and people mention that coincidence often especially since the trailer dropped

YEAH! I'm always down for this kind of thing.

That's interesting about the school, I hadn't heard that. Its really sounding like it was written in the stars for Nick to end up playing George.

I cannot WAIT for people on the right to get mad about Ellie being gay once the Left Behind segment for the show comes out and saying that they’re “forcing the gay agenda through children”
