The Blessings of Making a Home

Today I have been reflecting on the blessings of living simply and making a home for my little family.




A quiet home, simple routines, and a grateful heart — that’s abundance.

Marriage is a ministry.
Motherhood is a ministry.
Homemaking is a ministry.

Whenever you are creating beauty around you, you are restoring your own soul.

For indeed, a house is a little church.
