On Faith:

 

Found this little treasure in my email this morning.....

 

                      When the sun is shining and all is well,  it is easy to have faith. 
                      When the family is at peace, it is easy to feel at peace.

                      When the shelves are full and there is money in the bank it easy is to be happy.

                      But,

                      when life takes unexpected u turn for the worse,

                      as it does once an while,

                      it is way to easy to lose faith.

                      To do so  is a great mistake, for during the darker days of life,

                      we cultivate faith in God, in ourselves and in our own abilities.

                      George Macdonald said:


                                          "A Perfect faith would lift us absolutely above fear"

                     So when we are armed with faith that is grounded in reality of the possibilities,

                     we can bring forth the courage to face our challenges head-on.

                     And when we do this we will be at the power of our Mountain-Moving Faith.

                    Jesus said: 

                                       "If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall

                                        say unto this mountain,  Remove hence to yonder place:

                                        it shall be move and nothing shall be impossible unto you." 

                                                                                                                              Matt.17:20

                      So with that thought Lets begin to move mountains.

                      Have a Blessed Day today and be a Blessing to someone!

Welcome to my lazy little place on the web. A place to slow down and take an occasional break from the everyday routine.

About Us...


Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket My sweet hubbie took the quirky little picture you see above. Contrary to what it may seem to indicate, the kids and I are not usually found sitting around together looking like sardines packed in mustard sauce. We were actually loaded up in our little space capsule at the St. Louis Arch - ready to ride to the top! Now THAT was a cool field trip!! When we're not on field trips, you'll find us living our dream on a lovely little lake in the Lake Region of N. Central Florida - with lots of cows, horses, raccoons, opossums and gators for neighbors (...there are a few humans as neighbors too!). We're going into our 13th year of homeschooling, and even though all of our homeschooling children are now high schoolers, we still enjoy the eclectic, hands-on, literature based, Charlotte Mason method that we always have. The Lord has blessed us in so many ways, and to Him, alone, we give all the praise and glory! Soli Deo Gloria!!

Believe in God and you’ll believe in miracles;

believe in His Son and you’ll experience one!

Logic ridicules love,

and love smiles knowingly

at the whole foolishness of logic.





Creativity is allowing yourself

to make mistakes.

Art is knowing which ones to keep.

“A friend is someone who knows the song

in your heart and can sing it back to you

when you have forgotten the words.”

We are...

...a Christian family desiring to raise our

children with the primary focus on

Training their Hearts!

III John 1:4

"I have no greater joy, than to hear my

children walk in truth."

Proverbs 22:6

"Train up the child in the way he should

go, and when he is old, he will not depart

from it"

Deuteronomy 5:29

"Oh that their hearts would be inclined

to fear me and keep all my commands always,

so that it might go well with them and their

children forever!"

Train up a child in the way he should go

— but be sure you go that way yourself.

The character of our children tomorrow

depends on what we put into their hearts today.
