As we begin to adjust....

Week Three- wow- three weeks have gone by since our arrival here in Texas- time does keep going reguardless of your like or dislike of being some place. Sometimes I do wish I could freeze time for a while so I can linger in my feels, thoughts and life.

This week we schooled as usual, we had some late days do to the fact that if you do anything here, it is almost an all day task. Something I was so willing to forget about Texas. Everything is far, at least a 30 minute drive to anything you want to do. Walmart,Library,anything...

We found a very small, but wonderful homeschooling, support group to be involved with. It is lead by this wonderful Lady, named Bambi. She is the one who invited me to the women's bible Study. (which I love and look forward to each week!) It is just a group that gathers together for field trips, and gym days. Which is perfect for me. I do not want and over involved group!!

As I go through my bible study- this week we are working on Psalm 123(if you want to go with through it with me) It was such a reminder for me of where my eyes need to be. Towards the King of HIM. I long to gaze up and see His face and put my hand in HIS! At this time I need him to guide me, to hold my hand, to reassure me that all is well, and will be well! I love you Lord-
I lift my eyes unto the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, maker of Heave and EARTH!!

Has HE helped you, guided you, lifted you up lately? If so I would be so encouraged to hear!

    Set your eyes on the prize, and all else will fall gently in line. I hope you feel encouraged as each day continues as you start a new chapter of life in Texas. Remember, God provides ALL that we need, seek his will always and you will find the peace you need. He doesn't give you anything you can't handle. As you know! :) Have a good day!

    I so understand what you have felt in the past couple of weeks. Yours being in a place you don't want to be and mine being in a situation I don't want to be. I'm going through a drought right now. Longing for the Lord, with no time to seek Him. I feel like I am drowning and at any moment the water will overtake me. I long for just moments when things are slow and calm and I too can just rest in His word/presence. It feels so long since I have felt Him near me. How long O Lord? How long? How Long will I cry out to You and not hear Your answer or feel Your presence?
    Thanks for your encouragment and walk, it helps to know I am not alone, and we can gently lift one another up. God Bless

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
