  • Proverbs 31 Homeschool Moms

    Sometimes we just need to take time to do a “reality check” in our homes. We have to remind ourselves, “What does the LORD require of me?” Perfection, in this season of life, in our houses, in our homeschools, and in ourselves, is not going to occur!

    Some homeschooling moms have this idealistic vision of a Proverbs 31 homeschooling mother who rises while it is yet early and prepares a large, nutritious hot breakfast for her family, (complete with homemade bread, she never buys “store-bought!”) then has time to devote an hour to the Lord in prayer and Bible Study (whoops! Make that two hours, an hour for each!) and then has the house all sparkling clean by 8:00 to start homeschool!

  • Sit still, my daughter.

    When we are waiting on God, which I think every Christian ought to be all the time, we do not have a time schedule in front of us. We don’t know when or whether God is going to answer a particular prayer or do a particular thing or get us out of a certain situation or change any of the conditions of our lives. And sometimes we think of our lives as being on hold.

    I don’t think waiting on God is a merely passive thing. And certainly it doesn’t mean that our lives are on hold.

  • A Teenager’s Version of 1 Corinthians 13

    Though I speak with respect and honor, if I don’t have love in it all, I speak vainly.

    Although I may hear and understand my parents, and have faith enough that they’ll make the right decisions, if I show no love to them in the rough waters, I am nothing.

    And though I lend a helping hand around the house, and give of my time to be of service, if I don’t have love in doing it, it doesn’t benefit me anything…

The End.

The End.
