Life..........

Life has taken a whole new turn, after being a stay at home mom for 20 years or at least being with my children every day for twenty years I have now went out into the work force. I have been with my children, whether it was at a time when I was a stay at home mom or a Christian school teacher at the schools they attended, I was with them. I have always loved being a part of my children's lives. I just heard a lady say the other day, I have all my children grown and I am so happy I do, the teen years just about killed me! I thought to myself that is so sad! My favorite time with my children is their teen years, I love spending time with my youngens, they are funny, they make me laugh and they are not rebellious like most teenagers are today. I am so thankful the Lord has given me children that love the Lord and love their parents enough to submit to their authority.
If you have spent any time on my blog, you know that my husband is disabled and since we do not have insurance the Lord was merciful enough to me to give me a job that I love and that has the added benefits of insurance after 90 days.
I have often wondered why the Lord is so good to me, but he knows and guides our paths to the directions we need to go and I am so thankful I have a heavenly father that loves me enough to do that for me and my family.
I have such a peace in my heart that my children are left in the good hands of their father and he is overseeing the homeschooling endeavors. I stand amazed at how smoothly our home is running, dad has the children in subjection, he has them doing their daily chores and my house is in complete order. I do believe that it has everything to do with the scriptures that says: 1 Timothy 3:4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
God intends for the father to have a huge part in training the children, anytime we do things God's way it all falls into place and becomes extremely peaceful.

While I was home over this past two years I felt as if I was withering up and dying spiritually and since I have started this job I feel a revival in my heart.
I see people that need the Lord and I desire to share Christ with all of them. I work with a lot of people that say they know the Lord but there are quite a few that still need HIM! I love to tell people about the Lord and I feel this is a great place to spread the love of Christ! Pray for me that the Lord will use me to point people to HIM!

Thanks for stopping by!

I feel God will move you mightily to bring people to him. I pray for you and your family and I know the pain and suffering your husband is going through as I have had 2 back surgeries and the pain never goes away. I have taught teens and it always amazes and blesses me that they are my favorite people because they are so honest, confused, happy/unhappy but just want to be loved and understood. God bless you and your family!
