Though the Lord is high, yet he has respect to every lowly, humbled sinner; but the proud and unbelieving will be banished far from his blissful presence. Divine consolations have enough in them to revive us, even when we walk in the midst of troubles.

And God will save his own people that they may be revived by the Holy Spirit, the Giver of life and holiness.

If we give to God the glory of his mercy, we may take to ourselves the comfort. This confidence will not do away, but quicken prayer.

Whatever good there is in us, it is God works in us both to will and to do. The Lord will perfect the salvation of every true believer, and he will never forsake those whom he has created anew in Christ Jesus unto good works.

Homeschool - She's Doing Great!!


As most know, my daughter Elizabeth homeschools Addyson. I love that Elizabeth, Michael and John (Addy's Dad) haven chosen this path for her. I have seen her truly blossom since the decision to take her out of public school and keep her at home.


Lately, there are some who have been making comments - in front of Addy - about her "lack" of education. I'm sad that they don't know her the way we do and don't understand the great knowledge she is gaining through homeschooling! She is in competition with no one, studies the Bible in her daily curriculum, learns through many everyday life situations and is being taught by her parents - the people to whom God entrusted her life and learning!



Elizabeth has written a post in answer to those who question Addy's academic learning. It would be great for her to know that not everyone is against homeschooling! Please visit Elizabeth and let her know your thoughts on the subject!


In His Love and Blessings

  1. As you know, I homeschool my daughter. I hear a lot of negativity about it regarding her socialization...not so much about the lack of education but I think that is only because I am a college professor and NOBODY wants to insult me professionally ;) I'll pop on over....homeschooling my daughter was one of the best decisions I ever made!

  2. Thanks for sharing this. I visited your daughter and left her a comment. I'm just finishing my 17th year of home schooling... one of the best decisions I have ever made.

    Thanks for sharing your heart at the Cafe' also. It was great to see all that God has done in your life.
