A few years ago when I had the desire to start this blog I had no idea where it was going.  I know that I thought that I wanted to share all that I was learning about my journey with my faith but then I realized I am NOT a writer and I have a lot of distractions with a husband, four children, and growing a business.  So put those together and that is why my posts are few and far between.  I have been on a journey for a few years of serious personal development and I had gone in a way that I thought for sure was God's path for me but over the last few months God has been speaking to me about my family, about all the blessings he has given me, about my huge desire to HELP OTHERS but the biggest thing that he has shown me is that I have a ministry right here in my home, that is the most important to him.


Almost a year ago my youngest son was diagnosed on the Autism spectrum and after a 6 month grieving period (that I didn't realized was actually happening) I accepted it.  He started preschool, we were blessed with amazing teachers, a para of his own (IN PRESCHOOL), and amazing specialists at the same elementary school that all my children attended.  He over the last year has made huge strides, but as a mom I continue to fear the unknown for him.  Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart!


I pray that all his pieces will start to fit together and that although he may always have struggles (as we all do) that he will get to do anything his heart desires to do in his life. 

I do understand that their are families dealing with much, much, more and I don't take light of that at all.















So, now going back almost two years ago, we moved and my oldest daughter (who has a personality a lot like mine) takes a little time to fit in because we are a little on the shy side, INITIALLY.  She was negative about moving most of her 4th grade school year.  She wanted to be home schooled but I wanted to teach her to find the positive in everything and learn to adapt to the environment, meet new friends and PRAY each day for the things that were bothering her.  She had an amazing teacher who I still spend time with to this day and we have had nothing but good experiences with our school but with what God has spoken and put on my heart and having a daughter that will be going into 6th grade (with a desire to still be home schooled)  I have set my desires aside, I have changed my way of thinking that one of the reasons for our move was NOT because I was going to home school (because over the last year we were introduced to several families that home school), I have realized that my greatest joy and blessing would be to spend time with my oldest child everyday, to connect on a deeper level, to strengthen her faith, to slow down her worldly experiences, and to encourage her to focus on who God has created her to be.

 

Then, my final words today....2 Timothy 3:16-17  All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.  I am trusting in God to equip me because this is one area that I never felt I would be called.
