Good evening! I think I read something about a questionnaire for new members, but haven't seen one yet so I may by putting the cart before the horse on this, but I wanted to say hello!
My name is Amy, and I'm trying to unlearn the worldly habits I've grown accustomed to over the past few years, one of them being a very opinionated, bull-headed woman of herself. I was looking over some other page, I think it was something about trying to be frugal and saw the link to this forum and felt drawn to join. I think I can learn many many things from the ladies here. The Lord has delivered me from so many things in a relatively short time, so I have faith He can deliver me from myself!
I have a full-time job outside of the home right now, but my greatest desire is to be a stay at home wife, a homekeeper, ultimately a woman of Proverbs. I am hoping that I may home school any children the Lord allows us to have, I hope to learn sewing soon (actually looking for good machines atm) and work on building my own wardrobe, along with many other projects I am starting to see in my mind's eye. I pray that we can grow a nice garden next summer so that we may start canning and I am really looking forward to raising chickens as well. I am basically desiring a complete 180-degree turn in where I am now. One of my biggest prayers right now is that the Spirit would lead my husband to at least understand where my heart is. I'm afraid he's starting to think I'm losing my marbles! I'm going to have some issues with the submission part I know, but I want to be the wife God wants me to be for my husband, and be the wife my husband needs me to be.
I know I have written a book already, I'm sorry. I am very nearly green in almost every aspect of what I feel like I'm being led to be, so this may take a while...good thing he has agreed till death do we part, lol!
I look forward to learning so much here, I have had the wheels turning in my mind since I came across this forum. Sorry again for rambling And thank you for taking the time.
