Not the puddle... the ocean!

"If we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered to us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased." C.S. Lewis

I want to live my life by and in the ocean. I don’t want to be churning up mud while carelessly dipping my fingers in murky waters of mediocrity. This is how I feel about living the Christian life as a wife, mother, friend and professional woman. I want women to know that God loves how He has gifted us. At CWBO, we come together for the “each other affect”. We promote each other, encourage each other, we are for each other, refer each other, mentor each other….. and so much more. The women of CWBO desire a Christ-focused life, balance, and purpose.
