Womanhood Challenge of the Month: May 2010

This month's womanhood challenge is to cultivate yourself. This isn't a contrast to May's Girlhood Challenge to let God garden your heart, it's just a different way of applying to concept of gardening to oneself.

Have you ever thought about cultivating yourself? Do you watch how you grow?

Do you weed your heart, your mind, your life of things that don't belong in it and choke out the good stuff?

Do you provide yourself with plenty of light?

Is the place you are planted good for you and meeting your needs? If not, can you amend that soil or at least give yourself some extra food somehow?

Do you protect yourself from predators (outside influences that may harm you) and diseases (inside conditions that will hurt you)?

Do you get enough water ~ literally (your body and brain won't work their best if you don't get enough water, which most people don't) and figuratively (the water of life)?

If you have carefully studied these questions and answered them, and carefully considered the answers you gave, you've met the challenge!
