Marriage is a God's Creation

 

 

 

"Marriage is not a human invention, is the creation of God, it did not originate in the mind of man, but in the mind of God. Such being the case, man can not change the setting or the purpose of marriage to suit. A redefinition of marriage is the denial of marriage. " (William Einwechter)

~~~~~~

 "Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said," This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called 'woman', for she was taken out of man. "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh."

(Genesis 2: 22-24)

 

    ~~~~~~

 

"When a couple says their vows, is not a man or a woman or a pastor or parent who is the main actor - the main hurt. God is. God joins a husband and wife one flesh Union. God does this, the world does not know it, which is one reason why marriage is considered so casually. And Christians often act as if they do not know, that is one reason that marriage in the Church is seen as the wonder . Marriage is Gods doing because it is a union of one flesh that God does. "

(John Piper) "

 

      ~~~~~~

 

... "And the two shall become one flesh. 'So they are no more twain, but one flesh."

(Mark 10:8)

 

    ~~~~~~

 

"Marriage is a call to die [self] ...... Christian marriage vows are the beginning of a lifelong practice, of death, not only about giving everything you have, but all you are. This is a sinister force called? By no means! Is not darker than dying to self and following Christ. Indeed, those dying with love for their [spouses] are those who know the joy of the majority, weddings and more rewarding experience the greatest love. "

(R. Kent Hughes)

 

 

 

 

Homemade Tomato Sauce

 

 I'm so glad that I got it to make a delicious tomato sauce as the Italian mamas does!

Since that "I can remember", we used canned sauces done which we buy in groceries. My mama did not have time to spend hours and hours making sauce, because she had to work to have money to take care of me and my brother, since my father passed away so early, I was 7 years old. But... since nobody is orphaned of God, I have been immensely blessed because the Lord turns up seemingly bad things in blessings! Here I share this delicious recipe for Homemade Tomato Sauce. This recipe is for about a liter, but you can fold it to make larger quantities and  to freeze. You just need to be patient because you will need at least 2 hours or more to have it done!

We need to recover the pleasure of waiting "things" be ready and on point. Nowadays everything is so disposable, we want everything to "yesterday", which ends up creating much anxiety if we do not have all the time, all ready!

 

 

Ingredients:

- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium chopped onions, grated
- 3 small garlic clove, finely chopped
- 2 stalks celery, finely chopped
- 2 kg of mature tomatoes (about 15 fine red tomatoes)
- 1 sheered  carrot
- 1 liter of water
- 1 bay leaf
- Basil to taste,
- salt and pepper to gusto

The seeds of tomatoes can be removed by cutting from top to bottom, or you can leave them.
Chop the tomatoes and set aside. 

 Chop the onions, garlic and celery.

Bring a large pot over high heat and melt the butter.

Add the chopped onions and garlic, stir well and add the celery.
Add the tomatoes slowly, about a cup at a time, until soft. Then add the carrots.
When the tomatoes begin to boil, lower the heat and let the pan half covered.

Stir the water.

 Add a little salt and pepper freshly ground.
You may leave 1 to 2 hours  cooking to reduce the water and thicken the broth.
You can blender everything in a blender or just 3 cups of sauce and leave the rest to the pieces thoroughly cooked and soft.

You can freeze part in a ice tray, to use when you need. After froze you can put in a plastic bag.

Bon Appetit! ❤

Woman and Pants in the 40s

 

In the early 40s, trousers and overalls for women

 

You've probably heard this story: "Women did not wear pants until the war came and forced them to take up jobs in factories. It was a case of necessity. There was nothing very revolutionary. "

 

If we are woman we must be feminine, we do not need to wear clothes that show our feminine creativity.  The changes is more historic and economic than revolutionary. Why women must leave their homes to work in the factories the pans would be more ease to wear to adjust to the "new duty".

The pants in the female wardrobe: change of mind

Why we love a modest skirt

 

 

 

A modest skirt is a symbol of femininity and modesty for the woman.
It preserves ours shapes and do not draw our bodies. 

The modest skirt must be comfortable enough for the daily movements."

 

We love how we can seat down with them without offend our modesty. We do not need to use a book or purse to help us  to cover the size of our skirt, it covers what needs to be cover.

 

One modest skirt must be adjusted in our body without to show our shapes. Because this we love our skirt because it does not call attention for our  most intimate parts.

A skirt really modest do not limit our movements: it covers our knees when we are stand up and when we seat down.

 

For these things and others we love the modest skirt. And you?
