This is so so so so SO good.

You thought when people painted the "someday you're going to have to choose, for real, between the World and God, you won't be able to walk the line between both" picture that they were talking about martyrdom.

Some extreme. "Trample this picture of Jesus." "Say you don't believe!" "Convert to a different religion!"

You didn't realize that it wouldn't look like that. You didn't realize that when the line gets drawn in the sand, and Jesus is on one side, the other side would look like crying people wailing out, "why can't you just accept me for who I am? Why aren't I enough for you?"

You didn't realize that the choice would be between Jesus the Truth...or a majority of people in the culture making movies, making t-shirt slogans, changing their names, gently telling you that maybe this word in the Bible doesn't mean what you think it means, maybe love just means love, maybe you can have Jesus and whatever sexuality you want.

"Did God really say...?"

You thought it would be something overt. But the bad guys never said, "hey, choose the dark side over the light." They always said, "hey, maybe you don't even know what Jesus said."

The choice is: "It is the Lord. Let Him do what seems good to Him." OR "Did God really say...?"

That's the choice. This is where the rubber meets the road. This is our "choose this day who you will serve." As for me, I'm serving the Lord, and He's holding on to me. He never changes, and yes He did really say.

Hold fast to the truth. It doesn't change. People and cultures do.

We’re halfway through the year.

Don’t look back & say “what haven’t I done,” look forward & say “what can I do?”

My husband got me a kindle, and-

some of the books that are on kindle unlimited… 😅

The devil works hard, but my God works harder!!

Just got off of FT with my hubby & our baby after folding our laundry & swooning over baby giggles.

I think I like this little life 🥹

[callmemrscarter]

Between little outings with our baby & my growing love for the Lord, I’d say life is pretty good even with the twists & turns 💕

Hey mama…

Just take the nap.

[callmemrscarter]

I took a step back for the holidays, but I’m back in the swing of things!

& “We’ve got food at the house” is the motto ‘til further notice 😂

[callmemrscarter]

Hearing my husband talk about his plans for us is so…

Hot 😮‍💨

We love a man that provides 🥵👏🏽

[callmemrscarter]

I could never know it all, but I know a lot more now compared to when I made a meal for my husband for the first time & brought him a plate, or when, instead of giving in to my flesh & having an unnecessary attitude that wouldn’t alleviate any of my sorrows, I used my words thoroughly.

It’s been a long road, but so very worth the travels. My husband’s adoration for me is all of the validation I need. And I pray this to be the case for all of the homemakers striving to cultivate a place of warmth, & love. It IS possible 🫶🏽 🥰

[callmemrscarter]

I went out with my baby *without* my husband for the first time, & it truly was a treat 🥰

Homemaker tip:

Pray over the person’s laundry that you’re folding.

Time with God AND a changed heart posture 🤌🏽

The urge to have one of my husband’s favorites freshly baked, hot & ready when he gets home >>>>>
