The homeschool community has grown immensely over the last 5 years. I genuinely enjoy talking about homeschooling. This is what the Lord has for our family and as a result, there’s nothing else I’d rather do. If you had told me 10 years ago that this is what we would be doing, I would have… Continue reading I Am Not a “Fun” Homeschool Mom, and That’s Okay

Salvation Before Death
We recently had a death in our family. When we announced that my husband’s grandpa was sick, many people asked if he was saved. As a Christian, I understand the concern for salvation, and I am thankful for the concern. I understand we have heard many stories of deathbed salvation. Anyone can get saved at… Continue reading Salvation Before Death
Are You Walking in Love?
Ephesians 5:1-2 says, “Be ye therefore followers of God as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.” This may be a very familiar passage to you. Often we get acquainted with Scripture… Continue reading Are You Walking in Love?
Whom Are You Truly Fighting?
Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” This verse, and the whole chapter, speak on spiritual warfare. Every area of your life needs to remember that the Christian life IS a… Continue reading Whom Are You Truly Fighting?

Their journey was put on pause for 7 whole days while they waited for her to be put out of the camp and be pronounced… Continue reading Fight for the Promise

If/Then
Leviticus 26:3-4 says, “If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.” This promise of blessing was contingent upon their obedience. If they walked… Continue reading If/Then
Do You Want To Be Blessed?
Most of the time when we think of the word blessed or blessings, we associate that with favor or receiving good things. Webster's 1828 dictionary defines it this way: “made happy or prosperous; extolled; pronounced happy.” In Christian circles we often hear that we should not seek to be happy, happiness is fleeting, and… Continue reading Do You Want To Be Blessed?
My PCOS Journey
PCOS, or polycystic ovarian syndrome, is a very common condition among women today. Chances are, if you don’t have it, you know someone that does. And you probably know that getting a diagnosis isn’t always easy, which means delayed treatment. So, I would like to share my journey with you. I have had irregular… Continue reading My PCOS Journey
