Day #20. Paint the front door. 

 Okay, you don’t actually have to paint your front door, but your assignment today is to look around your home and do something to make it more appealing.  Paint a wall. Fluff pillows. Clean the pantry. Plant flower seeds.

In instructions for women to mentor younger women, one of the things they are to encourage is for women to be “keepers at home.” Titus 2:5

No matter how important your profession, no matter your age or stage in life, your investment of care and love for your house and home can impact your ministry. The purpose of your attention to the home is not to show off; the purpose is to make your home a joyful, pleasant place to be, demonstrating care and love for your family and readiness to share your home with others in ministry. 

“I have prepared the house and a place for the camels.” Genesis 24:31b
