Nothing moves my life like prayer. I have been blessed and started a little private prayergroup with Etsy people outside of Etsy. If you would like to join or just simply would like people pray for you, family, business, financial breakthrough, just stop by and let's chat. Sorry for not making it clear sooner. My e-mail address is NinisHandmades@aol.com, just write me and share your e-mail address with me, so we can include you on the prayercircle list.
THE WIFE OF NOBLE CHARACTER THE ULTIMATE ETSY WOMAN
Before the thought or the knowledge about Etsy, or me selling anything online had entered my mind, I always loved reading this particular scripture. When I first moved to the Staates, all emotions in me and fears of the future had welled up in me and over all, I was also first year wife and first time mother, and longed to be the woman that God wanted me to be.
So I started to read the bible. And from all of the scriptures Proverbs 31 the Wife of noble Character always stuck with me. Not because I thought I was a wife of noble character. LOL, but I longed to be one, and started to wonder how I could become her.
So the more I read, Prov. 31:13 "she selects wools and flax and works with eager hands", reminded me of myself. Because I love love love working with yarn and love knitting and crocheting, I might not make my own "wool" and "flax" but I sure do love to work with it with eager hands.
Proverbs 31:17 "She sets about her work vigorously, her arms are strong for her tasks". I can relate to that, I knit as if I am in race with my own self.
Proverbs 31:18 "She sees that her trading is profitable and her lamp does not go out at night". Once I realized that my paperwork at the INS will take longer than I had expected, I realized, that I would be a housewife for sometime, so I started to knit and people one by one told me that it could be profitable to sell them, and that got me keep on working on it, day and night, when everyone would sleep, I would be working on my ideas. So I would be a designer at night and a mother and caretaker at day.
And so the story goes on and on. I realize, that slowly but surely even though I know, that I have not arrived at the point of calling myself Wife of noble character, I see that I understand her thinking. She is constantly reinventing her self, she loves change and challenges, she takes the peace at night as her opportunity to be more creative and she enjoyes, creating for others, and knows that her trade is not only profitable for her but for her entire household.
So long story short, each and one of us women, young girls, who love to be creative, have a "wife of noble character" in us. It is God's will for us to be like HIM, HE is the first creator, THE CREATOR, that we love to copy in our little things that we love to do in life. Talent is nothing but HIS genetic inheritance that we are born with. We all have talents, and all comes down to one thing, Creativity and THAT we have from HIM.
PROVERBS 31:10-31
