Temptations, Invitations and Urgings keep trying to call me away from home. They keep trying to get mother away from keeping the home.
There is so much tranquility here. It is a slow - paced kind of life, when Mother is always at home. She is able to cook and bake and clean. She is able to pray and spend time with her family.
The other day, I was working in the kitchen and getting so much accomplished. I made several batches of suppers for the freezer. This was for those rough days when I needed to rest, or focus on other things. But I needed to stay home and have the strength to finish my work.
I remember someone mentioning Nehemiah in the Bible and how he could not come down from the wall, because he was doing God's work. Was something trying to call him away?
I don't want my home to fall in ruins because I did not have a heart for it. I have a calling to be here. Please, don't tempt me, or distract me away from my work.
What a great blessing it is to have a vision of home. It is not only a vision but a dedicated heart. It is a form of heaven on earth - an artisitc endeavor in hospitality, and of creating the beauty of a traditional family.
Blessings
Mrs. White
