Blogger Friend School Assignment #119

Assignment:  This week I thought we could share what great ways we have found to help with all we have to do.

Through the years when my little ones were young. I spent alot of time training them to be helpful, thoughtful and know that a family functions as a unit. Though in those days I did everything on my own as time past and each one of them grew, they grew to be help, caring, considerate blessings in my life.

Besides the obvious getting face down in front of God, what have you found that works?

Consistency and prayer of course! I developed a routine of things that needed to be done daily, and weekly.

Have you done a great bible study that deals with this area? 

No

Do you have a certain “thing” that  really helps you like a planner or gadget? 

Everything that needs to be remembered gets put on my calendar that is part of my email program. I have it set with alarms for reminders

Do you have a certain bible verse that just speaks to you and you have it posted so you see it all the time?

Proverbs 31:13

She seeketh wool , and flax , and worketh  willingly  with her hands

What do you do that if someone else found out about it, they could benefit from it?

I am not sure if do anything out of the ordinary or profound. I try to keep my children involved in the care of our home. I use a menu for meals so that I can shop more efficiently. I have just started to make my own laundry soap because it last longer and is more economical. We make our own bread instead of buy it because it is healthier for you  and obviously less expensive. Those are just a few things I do.

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...
