What’s Inspiring You This Week?
Here’s What’s Inspiring Me…

Inspiration From God’s Word
Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
But a woman who fears the Lord,
She shall be praised.
Proverbs 31:30

Devotional Of The Week
Deep Roots At Home – Why Have We Stopped Protecting Our Daughters?

Good Women

Art Source: Enchanting Quotes

This week, my husband was sharing a story about a high school that had
Banned cheerleaders from wearing their outfits – the same outfits that are
Deemed “appropriate” for public events throughout the community –
In the classroom because they were inappropriate and distracting.

Hello! How does our culture not understand the hypocrisy of this?

One of the most  timely articles I read this week was
Jacqueline’s heartfelt essay,
Why Have We Stopped Protecting Our Daughters?
It encourage you to stop by for a visit.
It struck a chord with her readers, and
I’m sure it will resonate with you as well!

Book Of The Week – NIV Worship Together Bible

NIV Worship Together Bible

I love worship music.
I love hearing the stories and inspiration behind the songs.
I love learning how Scripture has inspired artists past and present
To sing forth God’s praises.

If you do too, then check out the NIV Worship Together Bible.
It’s a Special Edition Bible filled with worship song resources!

Thanks to everyone who contributes to Inspire Me Monday!
Following are a few highlights from last week’s party:

Crystelle created this special mixed media piece for her daughter
Because you only turn 22 once in your lifetime!

Rite While U Can – Weave A Word

Weave A Word

As a writer, I felt incredibly inspired by Barb’s essay on words
And the art she chose to illustrate her work!
This beautiful piece was inspired by Bocoacolors.

Ma Niche – Nigella’s Maple Chicken

Nigellas Maple Chicken

Tanusree “cooked like a star” when she tackled
Nigella’s Maple Chicken – and the results are a win!

Inspire Me Monday #87 – Week Of September 1, 2013

Inspire Me Monday

I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
Judy Palmer
