Life is busy

2008-11-18T20:15:00.000-08:00

Life is busy with laundry, homeschooling, Bible studies, laundry, football games, volleyball, laundry,cooking, class meetings, club meetings, cooking, college, vo-tec, church, laundry, cooking, physical therapy, laundry, cooking, homeschool classes, and did I mention laundry or cooking??

Right now everyone is fairly healthy. Greg is doing much better. Esther is a whole lot better...even her osteoporosis has improved! Praise God. Caleb is in his senior year getting his degree in computer engineering and doing an internship at Tinker AirForce Base. Josh is doing graphic design at the vo-tec. Abi is a junior in highschool. Esther is a freshman. Elijah is in 7th grade.

I am the driver to all the activities as well as cook, laundress and teacher. I am in our 6th year of the gfcf diet and which is pretty much routine now.

Joshua 3:5 & 15-16

2005-12-03T11:06:00.000-08:00

⁵ Joshua told the people, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you."

¹⁵ Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water's edge,¹⁶ the water from upstream stopped flowing.

"The prelude of the Grand Finale"

2005-12-03T10:40:00.000-08:00

I believe Beth Moore says it best that "we are in the prelude of the grand finale". I believe Satan knows his time is short and he is bringing heavier attacks against God's children. I say we stand firm and recognize the attacks as his and not our children, our spouses or even just our circumstances and trust even more in our awesome God. For one day we will see...our faith shall be sight!! We will know we have not stood in vain.

This is a beautiful promise from God.

Isaiah 25:6-8

⁶ On this mountain the LORD Almighty will prepare
a feast of rich food for all peoples,
a banquet of aged wine—
the best of meats and the finest of wines.

⁷ On this mountain he will destroy
the shroud that enfolds all peoples,
the sheet that covers all nations;

⁸ he will swallow up death forever.
The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears
from all faces;
he will remove the disgrace of his people
from all the earth.
The LORD has spoken.

His leaf does not wither

2005-12-03T10:13:00.000-08:00

Psalm 1
¹ Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.

² But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

³ He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.

⁴ Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.

⁵ Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

⁶ For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.

It Is Well with My Soul

2005-12-03T10:08:00.000-08:00

And, Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,
The trump shall resound and the Lord shall desend,
"Even so," it is well with my soul.

2005-12-03T10:02:00.000-08:00
