Today is my day off and as I was enjoying my quiet house and
time in the Word after Matt left for work, thinking the kids were still
sleeping, my door opened and in walked Callie and Caleb serving me breakfast in
bed. Wow! I am honored! Today I get to spend some beautiful time homeschooling
with the kids before taking Ben and Callie for their afternoon classes. I love
this time with my kids and I cherish every second!
I feel extremely blessed this morning for all God is doing
within our family. It has been a true test of faith saying "yes" to
God when we went away from the "norm" but God has proved himself so
faithful!
Be bold in your obedience to God! He will never lead you off
track. His ways are perfect and his plan never fails. Though the road may seem
challenging at times, those are opportunities to strengthen our faith and grow
us closer to him.
"Trust
in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek
his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take."
Proverbs
3:5-6 (NLT)
"Consider
it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides.
You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows
its true colors. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its
work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way. If you
don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You'll get
his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly,
believingly, without a second thought. People who "worry their
prayers" are like wind-whipped waves. Don't think you're going to get
anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options
open."
James
1:2-8 (MSG)
