Welcome To Crystal's Blog

It is my prayer that God will use my writings to bless you today. I write straight from the heart. I write as a venue to praise God, and grow as a woman. I am a woman saved by grace! I am married to the most amazing man, and I have been blessed with four beautiful children. God uses my family to teach me and subsequently increases my faith in Him. At times I write through tears of joy, and at times tears of sorrow. Join me as I honestly share my heart and give God praise for His love!

Generation to Generation


The unfading beauty of a gentle spirit
Extending purpose 
Hope to younger generations
Time given on another's behalf
Who gets the blessing?
The giver and the receiver

A kind hearted woman gains respect
How is the heart measured?
By the extent we reach beyond ourselves
Look to the needs of God's people 
Seek to love and obey
Trusting in Him!

Charm is deceptive 
Beauty fleeting
Who is worthy of honor?
Those who have inner beauty
A heart that seeks Christ
A woman who fears the Lord
Will be lifted up

The wise woman builds her home
A house built upon a firm foundation
Meets with Godly friends
Builds relationships
Provides an amicable environment
Extends grace to God's children

We are all one in Christ Jesus
Man and woman
Young and old
Lean on each other
Lead His sheep to the cross.
Your crown awaits in Heaven

A Godly woman 
Cares for the poor
Gives open handed to those in need
How is this possible?
With such an egocentric culture
Only through a Godly domain!

Wisdom escapes her lips
You want instruction?
Seek a Godly friend
Her character
Strength and dignity
Acquired from the Lord

Laughter is her language
Her nature easygoing 
Joy exudes her spirit
A spirit inhabited by Christ
A smiling face
A gift to all God's people

Where two or more gather in my name
There I will be also
Christ uttered powerful words
The repercussion's of His words
Thousands of years later
Still ring strong today


Titus 2:3-5 "Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.  Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God."
