I am constantly trying to keep things in check although I am afraid as a whole we often fail in this area. I also feel we often "cater" to stay at home moms when we often have many woman in the workplace out of necessity. Thank you for yoru honesty- it was a good reminder to me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05108638368574866854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28613623.post-62490864665927078312008-09-18T19:15:00.000-05:002008-09-18T19:15:00.000-05:00Hi Andrea - thanks for visiting my blog.

I very much agree with you about the second-class citizen feeling. It does so often seem that attempts to lift up one group are accomplished by denigrating those not in that group. It may be unintentional, but it still hurts.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15763036860412775202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28613623.post-42955426814585427002008-09-18T17:15:00.000-05:002008-09-18T17:15:00.000-05:00Thanks for posting this.

There are several other groups who need support from their church, not just SAHMs. Loved Amy's post and couldn't wait to link to it on my blog!Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04939987028726182741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28613623.post-55029576800625032452008-09-17T18:25:00.000-05:002008-09-17T18:25:00.000-05:00This provided such a rest for my soul even though ...This provided such a rest for my soul even though I am a mother now. It's true that we spend a lot of time as a church bouying SAHM's at the expense of other, equally valuable women who are NOT moms. It's such a good reminder (and I have been reminded forcibly of this in other areas this week) that when God's glory comes first, all other priorities fall into line. And my self-worth is exactly where it should be, safe in God's hands.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613907883139565991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28613623.post-73175091090698274622008-09-17T17:54:00.000-05:002008-09-17T17:54:00.000-05:00Amen!

Perhaps we should stop lifting up certain groups of people as paragons and focus instead on honoring and appreciating all of various parts of the body of Christ that differ in both appearance and function. <BR/>I'm so grateful for your work over the past 5 or 6 years, which has had a very significant and direct impact on <B>hundreds of people.</B> And that is no understatement!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28613623.post-61212231933689420712008-09-17T11:08:00.000-05:002008-09-17T11:08:00.000-05:00Ooh, that's good.
