'The Woman I want To Be' series (part 11)

The woman who properly manages her home.


Father, I know you expect me to be a good and diligent caretaker of all that you have placed in my possession. I take charge and care of the home you have blessed me with. I am the woman who handles and governs the affairs of her home to bring about success despite difficulty in any area. I choose to put my time to the profitable use of building a strong and sturdy environment for my children to grow in, I choose to ensure my home is always filled with love and warmth, I choose to ceaselessly seek for your peace to reign over my dwelling in all circumstances, and I choose to keep you as the author and foundation of my home to lead myself and household in all and help me protect that which you have entrusted to me. I use your wisdom and direction to effectively maximize all the resources you make available to me and I will ensure the place I call home is a place that exudes with the light and warmth of your love, and a place where, through you, countless can find lasting help, healing, counsel and comfort.

As I am yet unmarried, may I apply such wisdom, diligence, organization, discipline and love as I assist my mother in managing her own home.


You're a God of order who values the institution of the family. I’ll continue to value family and ensure order reigns in my home.

"The Woman I Want To Be" series (7)

  The woman who knows how to prioritize.

 There is a time for everything under the sun and if I am unable to properly allocate my time to things and activities by order of relevance, then I have failed at much. I choose to plan my time effectively based on the insight from your word (1 Corinthians 10:23 and 1 Corinthians 14:40). I refuse to be a waste; whether of time, energy or resources. I will not be one to spend her time on frivolous fancies but rather, one to invest in essentials which bountifully profit. I choose to be punctual, I choose to be time conscious, and I choose to be effective. Even in my speech, let my words be selected. Let me have the insight to know what I should say and when it need be said, for a scatter-brained nature and the inability to organize my thoughts and words are not my portion. Keep me from the careless evil that is procrastination and let me ever be divorced from all that laziness represents.

You are a God of order, and I – made in your spitting image – am a woman of order as well.
