Sick, Healed and Blessed!

It has been quite a while since my last post but I have several good excuses. First off, my body came under attack with a virus that has been going around in my area. Then, I gave it to my husband and then my kids. We were miserable. But because God is our healer, we are now better and stronger than ever.

Then God allowed a situation to occur in our finances that was sooo awesome. He is sooo good and a wonderful father. Sometimes the lessons are difficult to endure but He never allows more on us than we are able to bear and they always serve His purpose. He has plans for us and thinks thoughts toward us to give us a hope and an expected (good) end. (Jeremiah 29:11). With that in mind, I knew that what we were going through was nothing to complain about or get in a funk about. I always know that when these surprise situations occur that my only source of peace, comfort, and guidance is in His face in prayer. Because we endured that, we are now one step closer to our calling.

Having said all of that and looking back on the situation through the truth of God's revelation, I must say that while we were going through it, my mind was truly a battlefield. I began to doubt my call to homeschool. I began to doubt my deliverance from bondages that God has pulled away from me. I began to "go through". But, his grace was and is sufficient and I'm back in the fight.

God has planted a vision, a seed in me for a great ministry that will impact thousands maybe even millions of young lives. It is called Protect the Seed Ministries. As this develops and as the Holy Spirit leads, I will post more here about what's coming forth.

Right now, I am in the process of selling old curriculum and buying new curriculum for next school year. It is absolutley amazing what God is doing. I can't wait so see what my God has in store next!

Have a great week!
