A Housewife

Being a housewife is very important. It is too bad it has declined so in our world. Caring for the home, the husband, the children is a grand job. It is a job that takes skill, smarts, organization, wisdom and love.
It is probably one of the most important jobs there are.
Today, in our society, we don't like to say the word housewife.  We say stay at home mom or SAHM or homemaker. Those are all very good titles but I think  housewife covers all of those titles and more because a woman doesn't stop caring for her home just because she sends her children to school or because they are grown and gone or even after she may be alone.  Caring for a home is something that is in a woman. It is a God-given talent. We just seem to know when things need picked up, straightened up or cleaned up.
We know when it is time to feed our families, when they need help with clothing or when they need support or understanding.  I think Donna Reed is right in this video about all that a housewife is and then some.
I know in today's society alot of women have abandoned their role but I believe many women are returning. I am not saying that all women should quit their jobs and stay home. There are many of us who need the money from that job. I myself work part time. I am just saying that maybe we just need to keep our priorities in line and not feel that the caring of the home is a meaningless job.


Similarly, older women should be reverent in their behavior, not slanderers, not addicted to drink, teaching what is good. so that they may train younger women to love their husbands and children, 
to be self-controlled, chaste, good homemakers home, there are many of us who need the money from that job.  I myself work part time. I am just saying that  maybe we just need to keep our priorities in line and not feel that the caring of the home is a meaningless job. Titus 2: 3-5
