My featured AMAZING woman of the week is my friend and mentor Becky.
Although we have known each other for a while, God has just recently brought us together on a deeper level of friendship. It is amazing how God knows exactly what and who you need. His timing is always perfect for his gifts. She, to me, is the perfect example of the Proverbs 31 woman. Perfect!? - Of course not, but God doesn't call us to be perfect, He just calls us to use our gifts and talents for His glory. And she is doing that.
Why do I think she is amazing??
She
Becky blogs here at On the Wings of Morning. She raised 4 children, is a grandmother (of 17) and her and her husband now have five adopted little Chinese princesses. She homeschools, has a yahoo group for mothers who have adopted and homeschool their children. And does so much more behind the scenes. She is truly an inspiration to me. She inspires me to be a keeper of my home, to love my family, to serve others, to educate my children well and be creative doing it. Above all to live the life that God gave me and use my abilities for Him.
