As a homemaker, I have to learn to take a lot of pride in keeping my home. I'm still in the beginnings of that process but I'm making progress. I'm very excited about some things I'm going to do to spruce up my bathroom cleaning today. First of all, I'm am going to clean my shower with fresh lemon juice. I read in an article that if you juice 6 lemons and put in a spray bottle, it's great for cleaning and freshening showers. Our master bathroom seems to always need more freshening than the others. I am also going to make a paste our of baking soda and lemon juice to clean the shower drain.

I think it's good to get in there once of twice a year. If you are going to take joy in keeping your home fresh you can't be intimidated by unsightly places. That's why I always suit up with latex gloves and a surgical masks when cleaning our bathrooms. After my shower is fresh, the third thing I'm doing to spruce up my bathroom cleaning is a homemade toilet bowel freshner using baking soda, White vinegar, and Eucholyptus oil. I'm so excited.

Micah 7:7 says: Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; My God will hear me.

When I start my day with God, dependence on Him starts my day and He reminds me during morning devotional time to lean on Him to get through the day. It helps me to not get "caught up" I pray that for today, that I don't get caught up. Noah is home from school, not feeling very well. I just want to lean on God and trust Him to bring her comfort and help her to heal today. I'm praying that I to would...
