Read it With Me Wednesday with Wisdom Wednesday Link-up

So, yesterday was my birthday.  My 28th birthday, to be exact.

It was a pretty terrible day, in terms of day to day things.

To top it all off, I backed into the garage door.  Yep.  I did.


But during my pity party, I kept reminding myself, (through the tears), that I am so blessed.  And this is just one day.

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace.  In the world you will have tribulation.  but take heart; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12


Lexie turned 3 on Tuesday.  My baby girl is three.  *gasp*

Max was 1 on Monday.  *whaaat?*

Time flies by.  It goes by so quickly.  But we can make each and every day count for something.

We can do God’s work.  We can do right by other’s, be kind, work hard knowing that our hard work may never be acknowledge by others.  Or that maybe they take it for granted.

But time is much too short not to live for Him.

Where is your “edge of uncomfortable and unknowing?”  Do you take risks which may in turn grow your faith?  This isn’t something that comes naturally for most of us (boy, let me tell you …).

Angela mentioned that our risks may not be a move to an unfamiliar place, but something like forgiving someone who hurt us, or changing our lifestyle so that we may give more freely with our money.  I thought those were great examples of risks for many of us, so I mentioned them here.

Have a blessed week, and please share in the comments any risks or leaps of faith you have found yourself or your family in recently.

Now, on to Read It With Me Wednesday: On Writing

The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.

Lamentations 3:25

I have been waiting.  Waiting for God to show me a way to minister to others, and grow myself.  I know my main ministry is in my home, for my husband and babies.  I looked into a few ministries, but nothing seemed to “fit” yet. Nothing was calling me, no matter how badly I wanted it to.

So I waited.  And I prayed.  I asked other stay at home and homeschooling mothers who said, “take it to the Lord.  Stop searching and let him guide you.”  So I did.

Then while reading her blog, I saw Misty was looking for co-hosts for her Christian blog; a blog that inspired me to seek Him more after I read it each night.  And it felt right.

After exchanging emails, and nailing out details, I heard God whisper, “this is it.”  
JTom was comfortable with it, so I proceeded.

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.   

Matthew 7:7-8

This last week has been … exciting!  Being part of something new, for the first time in a long time, is so exciting.

To be able to share with more readers and fellow bloggers how God is working one me daily, crafts and activities that we enjoy, and talk openly about our journey to homeschool, is all so refreshing!

It’s hard work, without monetary gain, but still refreshing.

And best of all, it’s lead by God!

But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul. 

Deuteronomy 4:29 

Seek Him in everything.  He promises that when you do, you will find Him.  And at His feet you will find many blessings.  Be blessed this week, friends!
