This is the day the Lord hath made! Let us Rejoice and be glad in it!

Let's head to His place singing God's songs, lifting His praise all day long!

Today is the Lord's day at our house and we are in the midst of getting ready. Amazingly so with the time change all of us got a great night sleep and up early! So we have some extra time. So I thought I would type. I mentioned in one of my earlier blogs that I'm teaching Sunday School. And usually God has to teach me first what I am to teach the ladies in the class. Without fail He did it again this week. You see I'm overwhelmed with the thought that all of my kids future success in school has a lot to with me! I start feeling inadequate and start thinking about the future and I get all flustered. So went my attitude Thursday morning until yesterday. When God finally got through to me that He is the one responsible for my kids teaching because He is the one who asked me to Homeschool them. These are His kids that He has given to me to raise. I needed to believe that "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". I struggle still because all their studies get harder but with Christ I can do this! So today as I head to His house I'm going sing His songs and praise Him all day long because He is in control of it all! Even my children!

A little side note: Have you ever wondered where all the words that you tell your kids go? I'm amazed that I can tell a kids 100 times to do something and when called and asked "What did I say?" because they didn't do it, the response is, "I didn't hear you?" Do they go down somewhere into the recesses of the brain to only pop out again when your an adult? As an adult I can still remember what my momma always told me, "Make sure you have on clean underwear, clean your room, clean your plate or you won't get dessert, or Because I said so!" Also as an adult and mother I say the same things. I'm ready for them to start listening and hearing what I say and applying it to their lives. Then I ponder, is this what God wants for us? He so gently reminds me, "Yes." I need to listen, hear, and apply what God is saying in my life just as much as my children need to listen, hear, and apply what I am trying to tell them. His ways are good for us and He knows what is best. So next time you fuss at your kids because they are not listening, ask yourself if you are?
