Guarding Her Heart
I have two daughters and one thing I hope to prevent is the breaking of their hearts...or worse, multiple fractures.
I appreciate shared wisdom from "Titus Moms" to that end. The article I am sharing is about the instruction we often give young girls to "guard your heart" without taking into consideration what that heart looks like. The author looks thru the empty, over-used terminology and suggests a common sense approach to training young ladies' hearts, not just "guarding" them.
I recently discovered the blogs (and books) of Douglas Wilson and his wife. Wilson is the author of "Evangellyfish" which is what led me to the blogs.
Sidenote:
I liked Evangellyfish. (a lot) You may too, if you' ve been to church at all in the last decade (or even if you've just watched one on t.v.)
This particular article is for my Pink Mommas because we've recently been talking about guiding our girls into their teen years and beyond...: Guarding Her Heart
...quietly, from a side door...
...before the choir special, while heads are bowed and eyes are closed...she slips back into her pew...
