"Show me your ways, O Lord,
teach me your paths;
guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God, my savior
And my hope is in you all day long."
Psalm 25:4-5

About Me

My photo
I am a Christian, homeschooling mom of 3, married to an amazing man who is a blessing from God. I love Jesus and try every day in every way to grow closer to Him and live like He would have me live. I want to follow His path and glorify Him with my thoughts, actions and speech. Some days are good...most days I fail miserably. But...I keep praying and receiving God's unending grace! This blog is about our daily life of homeschooling and parenting and just trying each day to walk in His will.

What is God calling you to do?

What is God calling you to do?  What are you struggling with?  Have you turned it over to God and asked Him what He wants for your life? He has plans for all of us and a purpose for which He created each one of us.  One of my favorite scriptures is Jeremiah 29: 11-14  " For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.  Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.  You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.  I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and will bring you back from captivity." 
The most amazing times of my life have been when I sought God's will for my life and then OBEYED.  It's not enough to just know what God wants you to do, you have to act on it!  Those times have been SCARY, they have been HARD, they have been LONELY as I go against the world or against family or friends or against the "norm", but they have been AMAZING and God has used those times to bless me ABUNDANTLY!!  Those times that I stepped out in faith are the times that I have grown the most and learned the most.  When I am following God's plans for my life I feel so close to God and they are treasured times!  So...what does God have planned for you?  A new job, a new church, a surgery, quitting a job, having children, adopting a child, moving, homeschooling, starting a new ministry, befriending someone, or changing your life in some drastic way?  God is in control and God is way bigger than whatever you are worried about!  Step out in faith and trust HIM who knows the beginning, middle and end of your life story.
