In everything give thanks...

Beautiful rainstorm at night.
Sunshine and bird songs and wind on this first day of May.
Dishes, pans, cookie sheets, and pitchers filled with fresh garden strawberries.
Eyes to see many beautiful parts of God's creation.
Friends who love Jesus with all their heart.
My precious children.

God is Good.

Post Number 101 and I am thankful

A bit of rain in the night
A fresh new morning
Regular work for hubby
A bit of chores and cleaning

A bible story
Coloring pages
Another story
Laundry
Some videos about fishing, bears, and hunting
Spelling bee
Verb Action Game
A walk to the pond and a few minutes to swim
Watching the road grader right in front of our house
A quiet time while little ones sleep
A few words about Moses from Wisdom of Sirach 45: He sanctified him because of his faithfulness and gentleness and chose him out of all flesh. He caused him to hear his voice.  


God could use Moses because he was being faithful where he was, back in the wilderness tending sheep.

My Blogs

Why do I have 2 blogs?

And the subject material is very similar?

Should I delete one blog?

Is there something I should be writing about?

So likewise ye,
When ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say,
We are unprofitable servants:
We have done that which was our duty to do.

that which is least...


He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: Luke 16:10

Be Faithful:

washing dishes,
washing clothes,
sweeping floors,
cleaning cupboards,
reading stories,
changing diapers,
cooking food,

Be Content:

You might always be unknown, doing 'least' things. You Might be called upon to do something that is noticed after you have been faithful in the least things. But don't worry about seeking for the things that are noticed. God sees whether you are faithful and content where you are.
Surrender to God's Will in everything. Let Him lead your life.

Faithfulness

It may not be on the mountain's height
Or over the stormy sea.
It may not be at the battle front
My Lord may have need of me....

What if it's a little house out in the country taking care of children, knowing only a few people in the community and basically unknown...??

Then be the most righteous and holy 'unknown person' you can be.

Don't Worry About Tomorrow


Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.

Take therefore no thought for the morrow:

For the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Do not complain.

Thank God for everything.

Gain the victory!

my children

I have a great responsibility.

I have 7 children who will spend eternity in heaven or hell.

How I treat them now and how I train them now will be a big help or a big hindrance to their life and how they choose.
