Homeschooling... Seeking rest in chaos... Persevering through chronic illness... Tenaciously worshiping in trials... Clinging to Jesus through it all.

It's not too good to be true.

I want to pray without ceasing. But I don't. Getting myself back in a habit. Trying to train my heart to seek Jesus consistently throughout the day.

It's all gonna be ok. Take a deep breath. Whisper a prayer. Or cry out to God in desperation.
.
He cares. He loves you. He loves your children.

Outside should be cooler. Today is October, and we're still sweating it out with nearly 100 degree heat here in Alabama.
.
Maybe if I post a fall picture. . . Nope, our reality is still sweltering.
.
I wonder how many of our frustrations stem from clinging to how we think things *should* be rather than how they actually are.
.
This plan *should* work. This lesson *should* be easier. This child *should* cooperate.
.
Moms, let's accept our reality, as messy as it might be, rather than clinging in frustration to our perfect illusion. Then we can take steps forward toward the perfect plan God has for our families.

A little family celebration because it's been a full family project. I love doing life as a team!

Momma, you don't have to have it all together. Your weakness can be an opportunity to receive a gift.
.
When we admit the truth of our shortcomings, we can give Him access into our lives.
.
When we acknowledge our wrong-doing, we can invite Him to enter our lives and change us.
.
---"The Restful Homeschool Resolution" Day 8---
. “And He has said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.’ Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.” II Corinthians 12:9
