I want to be a full-time homemaker!

• ((( "Boiling for Christ" pt 2 - Serve Jesus; not your appetite. Serve Jesus; not people. Yes, we put ourselves at the disposal of peoples needs and serve one another. But Ephesians 6:6 says Work not as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man. Serve Jesus; care about one approval! Don't serve man in that way. Ultimately one audience matters. Serve Jesus; not the Law. Romans 7:6 But now we are released from the law having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve not under the old written code, but in the new life of the Spirit. We now serve a Person instead of the Law. Jesus is a law fulfiller and curse bearer; Moses is just a law demander. Serving the Lord is believing who He is and what He has done. This means that all of our serving is receiving service from Christ which He bought for us on the cross. Serving is a constant trusting, depending, and receiving. We serve Jesus because He is mightily working in me. Serving Jesus is first trusting Jesus to serve me! Serving Jesus is the greatest privelage in the world because the greatest person in the universe has not just called us into his service, but has become our Servant so that all our serving is trusting and depending and receiving. We get the help; He gets the praise!
• What would it be like if I could be a homemaker? Well today I get to find out. *S* We had to leave Tony's truck at S&D last night, so he drove the car to work this morning and I get to stay at home. So far this morning I have drank my carrot-cucumber juice, put a load of towels in the washing machine, and listened to some of my daily devotions. My plans for the day: catch up on laundry, organize our closet and bathroom, and prepare dinner.
• 4:15pm - Yay! Our bedroom closet is cleaned and organized! It took me about 5 hours and I am thrilled! :-) I was going to make spinach lasagna for dinner, but realized that I didn't have any cottage cheese or ricotta cheese. So I made spinach, mushroom, carrot quiche instead. It has about 10 minutes left in the oven and it is looking pretty tasty! Tony will be coming home in a little while. It has been *fun* being a home maker for the day! Maybe I'll get to take days like this more often. Lord, please provide!
• The quiche turned out to be very tasty! I even brought a piece to mom (along with some strawberry apple muffins). Everyone agreed that it would be better with cheddar cheese though. I only had mozzerella on hand, and it was too bland of a cheese. But other than that, this recipe is definately a keeper! We picked Tony's truck up from S&D and the total cost to get it fixed was $62. Then we went to ABI's gym. It feel's good to be exercising and eating healthier!
