Homeschooling and Obedience

I said I wasn't going to write about this. I said I wasn't going to blog about this. I said I'm not going to even talk much about this. The truth of the matter is I must do all of the above. Writing is the single most destressing activity in my life. At this point, I can truly say that homeschooling is not stressful... In any of the ways I initially thought. I thought I would be stressed about disciplining them. I thought I would be stressed about their learning or lack of. I thought I would be stressed about their lack of social interaction. Nope, couldn't care much less about any of those issues at this point. I'm stressing over how they'll get a high school diploma (Grace is 7 and Isaiah is 6), I'm stressing over finding the right desks to accommodate the small space in which we call home, and I'm stressing over how I'm going to incorporate chores into their daily activities. Wow. God has done some amazing work on my heart over the last few weeks. He has laid out exactly what I need to be doing, what I need to spend money on and what resources I can utilize that are free. But most importantly He has showed me that I have amazing, talented, smart, insanely funny little beings with sparkly personalities and the spirits of lions. And I get to call them mine when in all actuality they are His. My journey will be long and I'm sure at times it will be treacherous but assuming Jesus does not return or call me home soon this will be a journey in which I will conquer the raging waters,  defeat the enemy, and declare victory in Jesus' name! 

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. ~Matthew 6:33

Lesson of the month: Obedience

I am excited to see what God has in store for our lives!!! Never know what might be just around the corner...

My goal for this next half of this month is to focus on giving my kids to The Lord and letting Him do the amazing work in them that he so easily does all the time and all the times that I don't even recognize. My God truly is amazing.
