My Homeschooling Journey

Image
            I didn’t set out to become an advocate for home education.   I seriously didn’t.   I went to a typical Mid-Western K-12 school system, and my BA is from a Big Ten University.   I remember thinking that home education was some crazy antiquated hidden part of society.   I can remember telling people that as ‘Christians we are supposed to raise our children to be able to impact the secular world and sheltering them would never do that.’   I felt home education was raising children up to collapse under the pressures of the world.   I was wrong.                   When it was time for my children to enter into the public education system, it was an uphill battle from the beginning.  Our story is a story whispered in stifled voices around Mom’s groups.  My oldest daughter was bullied for her faith by teachers, students, and adminis...

MAGA Hats; My own social experiment

MAGA Hats; My own social experiment *WARNING!   This is a political post.   The views I express are mine, and I have no desire for arguments.   If my views on politics would anger you, then perhaps you may not want to continue reading.   Grin.             My family and I just returned from our summer family vacation and had a great time.   We went to Washington D.C., Virginia Beach, and looked at a couple law schools that my oldest daughter has had on her radar for some time.    It was a good trip.   I loved seeing our Nation’s Capital as an adult, and Virginia has to be one of the most beautiful states I have ever visited.   Some time ago I decided that I wanted to do this trip and conduct a bit of a social experiment.   With our nation in an overly sensitive political place of division I wanted to see what would happen if I wore “Make America Great Again” hats al...

Strategic Maneuvering

Image
As I was praying today I really felt this word was for someone.  I hope it blesses you, but I saw a mountain range and an arrow was shooting through it.  It looked like that arrow had no way to get through the range, but there was a way.  I felt God was saying that he was aligning some folks to strategically get through places where it looks like it's impossible.  He is providing a way where it seems like there is no way.  If you will step with God, and do what He says. . .He will strategically maneuver you to get through what seems to be impossible.  Amen.

2019, The Year of the the 2nd Wind

Image
2019 Coming of the 2 nd Wind             I was very blessed this last week that my family and I were able to get away for a little bit and I was able to pray about what I was feeling for the upcoming New Year.   I try very hard not to get on the ‘prophetic bandwagon’ when it comes to giving words especially regarding the New Year, but it’s always been a blessing as I release what God gives me to see how He confirms them throughout the year.   Realize that ‘we prophesy in part’.   You need to pray what God is giving you.   This is what I am feeling.             As I prayed I saw the coming of a 2 nd wind.   At first that kind of baffled me, but then God began to reveal this to me stronger and stronger.   It was as if many of the church have felt in the recent months that they are sitting in a sailboat in the middle of a body of water. ...
