Often times I wonder.....

I often times wonder if I am succeeding in giving my children the Word and living it in my own life. It is frustrating to sit here and say the same things over and over. Bridle your tongue. Love your brethren, and love your enemies. Be kind to one another. It just seems to be void at times.

I wonder if that is how the Heavenly Father feels about me?
Does He get as frustrated with me when I call him, Lord, Lord, and NOT do what he says?
Does he ever want to just say ok, I warned you- you are on your own?

Will I ever live to see the fruit in their lives? In turn will I live to see the fruit in my own life?

Ugh today has been one of those days that you just wonder what you are doing... are you doing it right? If not- how do you fix it?

Have you ever had one of those days?

I love you Siesta, Friends and family So very Much!
May our Lord Jesus bless all of you!

    Even when we minister to others, pour into their lives, many times we don't get to enjoy the fruit, but nevertheless, our reward awaits us from our father above. I think it's healthy for a parent to analzye how much spiritually they are currently doing with their children, most parents leave that to the Sunday school teacher.
    What a shame.

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...
