My hope was to encourage you with a post about how the mundane, routine life of a wife/mother/homemaker/
homeschooling family is truly a place where God can take us into the Holy of Holies. A place where it is a privilege to suffer. A place where sacrificial living brings the greatest rewards. A place to share the Gospel with our children and live it out in our daily lives. A place that produces genuine repentance and asking of forgiveness. A place where we bring our needs to our Father and watch Him give good gifts in the little things. A place of community. Friendships. Memories. A place of making. Molding. Refining. Pruning. A place of love. Grace. Mercy. A place to be raw. Real. Vulnerable. A place to be a witness. An encouragement. A servant. A place to learn. Grow. Develop gifts. A place to be loved. Anticipate. Dream. A place to sow seeds of kindness. Generosity. Self-control. Discipline.
The assignment we have been given is the greatest one to ever be given. One child can change the world. We have the honor and opportunity to be the parent of that child.
I had hopes of sharing all that. I had my post almost done. I accidentally deleted it all.
A place of humility. A place where we must decrease so He can increase. A place of denying self. Believing that God is Sovereign over all things, and nothing happens without His hand in it. A place where less is more.
And so, I must believe that this is what God wanted you all to read tonight.
Keep on keeping on, mamas! We are raising warriors for the Kingdom. You are doing a great job! You are right where God wants you.
Love to you all.
