Mommy Mondays

 

Homeschooling still........

 

This year has been full of God's grace and I have continued to lean on his strength. Through the appointments,dirty diapers,meal preparing,hair styling,dirty dishes,loads of clothes,running noses,fevers,reading of textbooks,schoolwork,museums,etc.

He has seen us through and I would not change any of it. God has given me a wonderful family and I find it as a privilege and honor that God has chosen and have trust me with the children and husband that he has given me that I may be a women that serves the Lord and not be a vessel that tears my house down.

{Proverbs 14:1 Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.}

I thank God for his word that is truly health to the bones of those who are willing to read it and apply it to their lives. I thank God for his word that is truly health to the bones of those that want to be honest with ones self and want to be pleasing into his sight. Indeed, it's the only thing that will make you free.

 

This is the sixth year of my homeschooling journey and I am so grateful for all that God has provided for me and my family, through others and through my husband. I thank God for my husband!

I thank God for my husband and I thank God that he mirrors the father and our Lord Jesus Christ for us to see his light. He has truly been a blessing to me on so many levels and I thank God that though he is not perfect he is striving to be complete in him. I thank God that is he is the leader of our house and I love him very much {but he knows that} . I pray that we will continue to be a clean vessel that HE can use.

With His help we can let our light continue to shine so that men can see our good works and glorify Him which is in heaven. I also pray that God will keep you and anyone that comes across this reading and that he will strengthen you and be with you in whatever this life brings.

 

God Bless and may God's word live through us all.

Walk In the WORD Wednesdays

Socialism

Below is a draft that I have been holding on to since the incident occurred. I intend to blog more but time escapes me. I want to sit down and write the awesome posts and somehow I don't. The one below is being posted because the issue came up today.


The buzz word for homeschooling reared its ugly head today.

My wife took my oldest and youngest daughters to the clinic today and it was on! Home-schoolers know where I am going with this, my oldest is sixteen and as such there are certain "questions" that they will ask.

Indeed, the Mrs. was ready for the interaction! The world constantly wants to impart their views on to you, while telling you what their view of  normal is.
The interview/interrogation began with some basic questions and progressed to the question about school and when the answer was that they are home-schooled, the atmosphere changed. 

My wife was asked if she thought that she was "hurting" her children by not letting them "socialize" in school. She was told that the children have to "learn how to read people and their mess" and they can only do this by being in school.

What do you think?

Comment and let us know

TEKEL

MENE

TEKEL (Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.) 

UPHARSIN


The famous/infamous biblical writing on the wall found in the book of Daniel. I truly feel like I have been weighed and found wanting.  I am looking to get back to my first love because I as a husband and father have been lacking. I thank the GOD of AIJ for his grace and chastisement.  Please join me in forgetting those things that are behind and pressing toward the mark. Indeed, we have to learn from the failings of our past, however they can not be changed, contrarily today is the day that is glorious in that it offers us hope and illumination of what is just and true and who is just and true. Pray with me as I focus and think on whatever is full of virtue....
