I was reading through a devotional today called Little Pillows. It’s a sweet, small book of devotions that are especially touching and deep, though written in somewhat antiquated language. The specific devotion I read was quite nurturing to my own soul. It talked of the fact that Jesus is the same. Have you ever considered that? It’s not something we think a lot about yet when I took time to ponder Jesus in this way I was deeply encouraged. He is constant and unchanging. Completely faithful and wholly dependable. The author encouraged us to recount the times when we have […]

For the homeschooling mom, there’s a gnawing temptation to feel overwhelmed. I’ve wanted to address this issue for some time because I know how it feels and experienced it quite a lot in my beginning days as a homeschooler. Thankfully, I discovered a way we as homeschool moms can protect ourselves from this emotion while in the throws of homeschooling. How? By guarding our thoughts. I remember walking through my house and becoming easily overwhelmed during those years. One day I passed by a tremendously messy closet filled with books. On the floor, I spied a stack of standardized practice […]

Are you homeschooling from overflow or are you homeschooling on empty? Do you run out of steam halfway through the day or are you able to maintain joy and energy on the journey? God desires for us to minister to our family out of abundance, from the overflow of what He has poured into us. The Lord so longs to pour into you, to feed you from the Bread of Life so that you may be full. Taste and see that the Lord is good! More important than choosing the right curriculum or keeping to your schedule—more important than doing, doing, […]

For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God. 2 Corinthians 1:20 When I first read the verse above I wondered to myself, “What does that mean? What did God promise?” I quickly relegated all of God’s promises into a box: Savior, salvation, heaven; my God-in-a-box was limited. I looked closer and realized God’s desire is to shower us with His promises, to say, “Yes” to us concerning all He has promised in His Word. As I learned more about God’s Word, […]

It’s so important that we surround our lives with encouragement. God’s Word tells us that we need encouragement daily. Are you getting that dose of encouragement? Are your friends encouraging toward you? Do you listen to encouraging messages on the radio or the computer? Do you read encouraging blogs? Are you being encouraged in your walk with God? Do you belong to a small group that has committed to encourage one another daily? If not, you’re missing out on one of God’s gifts of grace. I think you’ll notice a big change in your life if you become proactive and […]
