Growing in grace...

The Gospel of grace changes how we see the world.

We are given the blessing of seeing the world though our Creator's eyes.

He gives us grace to seek His will and to follow in His footsteps.

Our hearts become full.

But trials do come and when they come, we are still being asked to grow in grace and be gracious to those who cannot see the world through their Creator's eyes.

This stretches us and makes us more like Him.

I remember in the story, The Pilgrim's Progress, one of the chapters illustrates how God pours water on our fiery trial and nullifies any work of the enemy on our life.

It is so good to know, as we trust Him, He supplies the grace to meet and overcome every temptation and trial.

Are you making progress on your journey of grace?

Lay aside every weight, every heart ache, and yoke up with the One who has called you. He will move you forward steadily and unwavering.

It is so good to be on this journey and to grow in the grace of the Lord!

Decision Time

You have dreamed of making a beautiful wall hanging for your living room wall.

Something personal! Something special. Maybe you have hoped to sew a new

curtain. Oh, and you definitely desire to produce a baby blanket complete with the baby-to-be's name embroidered on it before the big day arrives. Can anyone say "procrastination"? So we all struggle with good intentions that never come to pass. There comes a point where you have to decide. I am going to get busy and do this project. I am going to choose for a good reason to not do the project after all. Possibly, you just decide to give up. I have had many points in my life like this.

It has good for me to prayerfully consider my intentions. If you keep seeking the

Lord's guidance, He will keep you heading the right direction. Always be mindful,

that many times, God simply desires for us to persevere through interruptions and

distractions so that we can successfully complete the work He has called us to do! Pray....then persevere!!

God is always preparing us!

Every family is unique. There are four kids in our family. Every

year my responsibilities changed. I once taught all four of my children

in a multitue of subjects. As the years have passed, I am no longer

homeschooling but teaching in a Christian school.

I loved all my years of learning and applying teaching methods

to draw out Biblical reasoning in all our studies alongside my kids.

God surprised me with a whole new seasoning of teaching in a classroom!

It's time to reach out and support other families as they pursue a Christian

education for their children.

Be determined to grow through your educational years

at home with your kids and then to share your teaching skills and

wisdom gained with the Body of Christ. Let your light shine!
