A Promise For Our School This Year

And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding beyond measure and breath of mind like the sand on the seashore so that Solomon’s wisdom surpassed the wisdom of all the people of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt… He spoke 3000 Proverbs and his songs were 1005. He spoke of trees from the Cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop the grows out of the wall He spoke also of beasts end of birds and reptiles and the fish and people of all nations came to hear the wisdom of Solomon and from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom. 1 Kings 4:29-34

Holy Spirit, I thank you that you will do the same for my husband, my children, & me. As we seek You, there is wisdom, You will lead and guide, give understanding of the things in our world, like Math, science, history, etc. I can trust you to teach my children & my husband. I can rest in You, in your promises. You will give wisdom for the future, for our church, for our family, finances, school, and Everything. Thank you! I ask for that supernatural wisdom right now, that only You can bring, Holy Spirit. Not for our glory, but for Yours. For Your purpose, so that our lives will bring you glory! So that we will run with sparkle, trusting You to provide everything thing we need!

Lola Comes to Visit

Color coordinating girls A close up :) Jaime came to visit, too! Emma's 7th Birthday Party at the Y! Face painting Mom worked hard while she was here! Elijah pondering life at the Discipleship Summit in Wilmot, Ohio Look at that face! Elijah enjoyed Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood while Mommy worked on Venture Kids planning! What a blessing it was to be able to go to the Summit this year! I tried to get out of it because of all of the sickness at home, but I am so glad God didn't let me. He met me, even though I spent most of the time out of the sessions and in the room with Eli. Once again, He reminded me that He is enough...for joyful mothering, sacrifical marriage, victorious living. His Spirit is in me...what more could I need? I am Holy because of this fact. So, I go home in confidence...and with great peace!

His Presence, My Hope...

Joshua 1:3- “I will give you every place you set your foot, as I promised Moses.” Exodus 3:14- “My presence will go with you & I will give you rest.” For 2020, there is one thing that brings such a tremendous amount of hope to me...God is here and His presence goes with me. That is my hope, my security. As I walk into the unknown & so many changes, His promise to never leave me or forsake me (Joshua 1:5) resonates with my heart. As I walk into the new year, Father, I lift my eyes to see you & trust in you. You have never failed me. You have seen me through many dark winters in my life & I trust in you. You have never failed me, You have always come through at the right time. You know what’s best. I just want to live for You...completely sold out to you! New Year’s Resolutions? I return to my manifesto: Love Jesus. Love family. Love the Church. Love the world. Run with sparkle. Jesus In. Jesus out. Be thankful always. No complaining. Ever. Seek Out Adventure....

Lent 2020

As the Lenten season approached, I knew I had to face off with what we were going to give up this year as a family. Let me preface this post with this: I have thoroughly been enjoying movies each night as I nursed Levi. It was something I looked forward to & I was getting to the place where I couldn’t imagine life in the nursing a newborn season without those movies. One night, as I sat on the bed nursing the baby, I told the Lord that I really didn’t want to give up T.V., video games, or movies this year. I enjoyed playing Candy crush & watching movies to take my mind off of how tired I was. I asked God to give me the desire to give it all up. I needed a miracle! Sometime in the next 24 hours I was watching my kids on their devices & watching T.V. and I realized that it was time to regain our focus. To give it up again for the sake of putting it in its rightful place. The Lord actually gave me a longing to give it up, maybe even an excitement for what He would be able...

Run With Sparkle
