"I went out full, and the LORD hath brought me home again empty..."
~ Ruth 1:21 ~
"Where we love is home - home that our feet may leave but not our hearts."
~ Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. ~
"The ornament of a house are the friends who frequent it."
"It's sad if people think that's (homemaking) a dull existence, (but) you can't just buy an apartment and furnish it and walk away. It's the flowers you choose, the music you play, the smile you have waiting. I want to be gay and cheerful, a haven in this troubled world. I don't want my husband and children to come home and find a rattled woman. Our era is already rattled enough, isn't it?"~ Audrey Hepburn ~
"There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort."
~ Jane Austin ~
"There is no spectacle on earth more appealing than that of a beautiful woman in the act of cooking dinner for someone she loves." ~ Thomas Wolfe ~
"Home is where one starts from." ~ T. S. Eliot ~
"I believe that a godly home is a foretaste of heaven. Our homes, imperfect as they are, must be a haven from the chaos outside. They should be a reflection of our eternal home, where troubled souls find peace, weary hearts find rest, hungry bodies find refreshment, lonely pilgrims find communion, and wounded spirits find compassion." ~ Jani Ortlund ~
"Home is where the heart is."
"I'm only a housewife, I'm afraid." How often do we hear this shocking admission. I'm afraid when I heart it I feel very angry indeed. Only a housewife: only a practitioner of one of the two most noble professions (the other one is that of a farmer); only the mistress of a huge battery of high and varied skills and custodian of civilization itself. Only a typist, perhaps! Only a company director, or a nuclear physicist; only a barrister; only the President! When a woman says she is a housewife she should say it with the utmost pride, for there is nothing higher on this planet to which she could aspire." ~ John Seymour, Forgotten Household Crafts ~
"Nothing can bring a real sense of security into the home except true love."
~ Billy Graham ~
"A home without books is a body without soul." ~ Cicero ~
"My home is in heaven.
I'm just traveling through this world."
~ Billy Graham ~
"There are many rooms in my Father's house.
If there were not, would I have told you that I am going away to prepare a place for you?
And if I am going away to prepare a place for you,
I will come again and will welcome you into my presence,
so that you may be where I am."
~ John 14:2-3 ~
