Resolution of Women

This is How I want my Twinkies to live as Women of God!!! This resolution is posted in our house and signed/witnessed by my daughters to hold me accountable!!'

THE RESOLUTION OF WOMEN

1. I DO SOLEMNLY RESOLVE to embrace my current season of life and will maximize my time in it. I will resist the urge to hurry through or circumvent any portion of my journey but will live with a spirit of contentment.

2. I WILL CHAMPION God's model for womanhood in the face of a postfeminist culture. I will teach it to my daughters and encourage its support by my sons.

3. I WILL ACCEPT and celebrate my uniqueness and will esteem and encourage the distinctions I admire in others.

4. I WILL LIVE as a woman answerable to God and faithfully committed to HIS WORD.

5. I WILL SEEK to devote the best of myself, my time, and my talents to the primary roles the LORD has entrusted to me in this phase of my life.

6. I WILL BE a woman who is quick to listen and slow to speak. I will care about the concerns of others and esteem them more highly than myself.

7. I WILL FORGIVE those who have wronged me and reconcile with those I have wronged.

8. I WILL NOT TOLERATE evil influences even in the most justifiable form, in myself or my home, but will embrace and encourage a life of purity.

9. I WILL PURSUE justice, love mercy, and extend compassion toward others.

10. I WILL BE FAITHFUL to my husband and honor him in my conduct and conversation in order to bring glory to the name of the LORD. I will aspire to be a suitable partner for him to help him reach his GOD-given potential.

11. I WILL DEMONSTRATE to my children how to love GOD with ALL their HEARTS, MINDS, and STRENGTH, and will train them to respect authority and live responsibly.

12. I WILL CULTIVATE a peaceful home where everyone can sense GOD's presence not only through acts of love and service but also through the pleasant and grateful attitude with which I perform them.

13. I FULLY RESOLVE to make today's decisions with tomorrow's impact in mind. I will consider my current choices in light of those who will come after me.

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. ---Joshua 24:15
