Welcome to Women With Intention Wednesdays!
I am very excited you are here to help me celebrate my third week of link-ups! It warms my heart that last week we had another really great set of posts!
This week I’m featuring the first installment of a series that Brittany has been working on for a long time! I’ve been eager to read it and am excited for the rest!
Here is what you will find at Women With Intention Wednesdays:
- This is a link up party where you come to encourage one another, have fun, and share your best posts to help women live their best life!
- In other words, any post that you have written about Christian living, homemaking, relationships, healthy living, living a frugal life or that helps another woman can be included in this link up! Please just keep them family friendly (I reserve the right to remove anything that I feel isn’t appropriate).
- This link up is beneficial for every woman! Whether you are a blogger or a reader, this is one you won’t want to miss! I’m very excited to offer this link up as a place to not only build new relationships between bloggers but also by providing an awesome resource of information for my readers!
Here are the rules of this link up:
- You must link directly to your post (no homepages, please).
- Please link up no more than 2 posts each week and please do not link up the same post week after week.
- For every link you add, please visit the link before you and one other of your choice. If your links are consecutive visit 2 of your choice for the 2nd link. It’s impossible to build relationships when no one communicates! Please don’t link and run!
- By linking up you give me permission to share your posts and photos on this blog and social media. Each week I will choose a featured post. I will only feature and pin your post if you have followed the rules. All features will be linked back to the original source.
- You also give me permission to email you a quick reminder that the party is live. You may opt out anytime. I don’t spam my readers with emails.
- Answer the community building question below so we all get to know each other! That’s the purpose of being here! 🙂
In order to help grow this community with great posts and relationships, I would love it if you would add the party button to your sidebar, your blog directory page, or a text link at the bottom of your post. This isn’t required to participate in the link-up but I would really appreciate it!
Community building question of the week: If you were given $500,000 what would you do with it? (And you can’t give it all away!) Leave your answer in the comments!
If you were featured be sure to grab a button for your site! Thank you for linking up and sharing your great posts!

I would pay off my debts and set aside an amount for travel, and give a nice chunk to our family. I would make a large donation to the church and also to smaller local charities. Spread the wealth, right ?! 😉
Yep! That would be my dream with that money, too! 🙂
I’d pay off my house–our only debt. I’d give some away. I’d purchase some land around my house.
Thanks for hosting.
Hi Jenny! Wouldn’t that be awesome? 🙂 Thanks for linking up!
Thank you so much for featuring me! I’m so honored! If I had that much money, I would pay off all of our debt, give SOME (you just said we can’t give ALL) to charity, buy a nicer house, get my husband a car, and buy new yoga pants that don’t have a hole in them 🙂
New yoga pants are a definite must with $500,000 🙂
I would use the money to pay off our student loans (finally!), put some into savings, give a bunch away (because that would be so fun!!!), and take a trip home for Christmas next year. 🙂
Jennie, those are all great! I hope you get your trip home next year even without $500,000! 🙂
I would buy my personal freedom! (Pay off student loans). It JUST occurred to me that I only have to work to pay off my student loans. What a bummer is that? If I didn’t have to work, I would still work to contribute to my family and to society, but with my freedom I could direct how I contribute and feel like I have a more fruitful life. As it is, I desperately need a job to be a slave for the next 10 years, so that I can then contribute in ways that are more meaningful for me! Pray for me people. This girl needs a job! 🙂
Adrienne, you are so right about buying your freedom. I’m still paying off my student loan debt, too but I should have it all paid off in 2016. I can’t wait. Prayers for not only a job but a job that you LOVE and still have time to work on your dreams. 🙂
I would give a lot away to my favorite charities, but I would also pay off our house, buy solar power, buy a reliable vehicle, save for retirement, and help my kids get a good start. I’d have it spend pretty quickly! Thanks for the link-up!
What a lovely link-up! This is my first time here but I will be back 🙂
What I would do if I were given 500 000 dollars?
I would pay of my debts, buy a a little homestead and get plants and animals for it. Then I would do what I dream about and just write.
Joanna, what kind of animals? I love looking out the window to see our cattle. They’re not always on our farm but there is something very serene when they are. I would love to have more time to dream and write as well. I guess we’ll have to schedule that in more frequently- what do you think? 🙂
like so many of my blog-sisters, i would finally buy our house, and pay cash! i would give enough to an incredible ministry of a friend to pay a year’s salary, and enable him to save the lives of unborn babies without worrying how he would pay his mortgage. then i would put the rest into savings, to help us prepare for coming college and vehicle expenses with kiddos running after their calling!
Angela, I love your heart! (And you think very similarly to myself on what you would do with your money! I love how you’d help your friend, my obgyn left the practice a few years ago to help a ministry very similar.) Oh the upcoming college expenses…scary isn’t it?! 🙂
That’s a lot of money! Would definitely have to give some away, but it would make it really easy to build our house and get our farm well underway!
My first thought when I posted it was that I could do for our farming situation, too! 🙂 The sad part with farming, you could spend it quite quickly!
I would help my church finish the children’s building, save some, invest some, spend some, pay off a major debt
🙂
