Well it's good to be back home. We were finally given the green light to come home from the hospital and for the time being, Baby #3 is staying put. The whole experience was exhausting for me, even being on bed rest for 24 hours. I realized something though and God taught me through the … Continue reading Obedience
When God Disturbs Our Plans
Today was supposed to be a bulk cooking day to get some meals in my freezer for when baby #3 decides to arrive... Instead, I've been in the hospital, trying to avoid preterm labor. So far, still no baby. Which is great for my son- he needs to bake in there some more. But it's … Continue reading When God Disturbs Our Plans
Homestead Updade
It's been nice to shift our focus the last few weeks. Call it my nesting instincts kicking in, but I've been really in to increased productivity and efficiency as of late. Something about entering 2018 with three kids under 3 years old, a new business, and new livestock is motivation to run my life as … Continue reading Homestead Updade
My Daily Time in the Word
Ironic as it sounds, I've been praying for diligent faith, disciplined faith, and consistency in my walk with the Lord... That's coming from a week of missed Bible study and prayer... At least I'm self aware, right? Anyway, I've set up a prayer notebook as a sort of accountability tool. Used in conjunction with my … Continue reading My Daily Time in the Word
Spiritual Gifts
My husband is studying theology and Biblical studies through Liberty University right now and one of his classes assigned a spiritual gifts survey as homework. The idea behind the survey is self knowledge of what God has divinely gifted you to do within the Church and in life. Out of curiosity, I took the survey … Continue reading Spiritual Gifts
Children, Go Where I Send Thee.
What. A. Week. Just an absolute crap fest of a week. My life proves Murphy's quantum Law: "Murphy's Quantum Law: Anything that can, could have, or will go wrong, is going wrong, all at once. If there are two or more ways to do something, and one of those ways can result in a catastrophe or pregnancy, then someone will do it." So there … Continue reading Children, Go Where I Send Thee.
The Christian and PrayerÂ
The prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up ; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The intense prayer of the righteous is very powerful. James … Continue reading The Christian and PrayerÂ
1 Timothy 6
Life is good on the "homestead." We're in the process of scouting for property so we can actually put our goals into motion, partly out of necessity, and partly out of desire. But the thing that keeps resonating with me lately is Psalm 127:1-2. I think because it's so easy to get preoccupied with what … Continue reading 1 Timothy 6
Weak-Sauce Christianity
I've been thinking and studying for a long time on the issue of sanctification in my own life and in the lives of professing Christians. We are not only to set apart Christ in our hearts as Lord over our will, emotions, and intellect, but we are supposed to be set apart from the rest … Continue reading Weak-Sauce Christianity
Connection
Where to begin? So much is going on and at the same time, I have a feeling of stagnation and disconnect. I find that I'm frequently in one of two places: Either just about to head into one of life's storms, or just coming out of one. So much of the last year is just … Continue reading Connection
