Pursue your passions

In my life I have seen people pursue dreams and goals and it has resulted in much fruit.  I have also seen people just talk about their dreams and goals and they have eventually fallen to the wayside.  This reminds me of the following scripture:

Mark 4:15

New King James Version (NKJV)

15 And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.

This is what happens to your seeds by the wayside.  Satan snatches them up.  This happens to many of us when it comes to the dreams God has placed in our hearts.  Well, I'm here to tell you that this does not have to be so.  Even in the midst of your busy life you can pursue your dreams little by little each day.  Matter-a-fact, God wants you to do this.  When God drops something in your heart concerning anything, it's important to take steps to pursue it immediately.  I have just had a revelation about this recently.  Don't wait until you have all the details ironed out. Don't wait until you have figured out how it's going to work.  Don't stop to think about whether you have time to do it.  Make a move on it and see how God moves.  Kind of like a checkerboard.  You make a move then see what move God makes. But you and God are on the same team, not competing agaist each other.  One tiny step of faith can yield something major in your life.  Tune in to the things you're passionate about and spend a little time on that everyday.  There are 3 things that I'm really passionate about right now in my life:
1.  Supporting other parents - I'm in the process of starting a Parent Support Group at my daughters school.  The school has approved it, I'm just trying to iron out the details.  My support group is called "Enriching America's Homes"
2.  Making my own home a place of teaching, enrichment and discipleship for my children
3.  Making my home a place of hospitality for those who need it.

What are your 3 things, or 2 things, or 1 thing??  I believe that God will move on these things immediately in your life if you move on these things.  Matter-a-fact, I believe this so much that I'm going to ask you to send an e-mail to the following e-mail and tell me what is stirring in  your heart right now.  I want to pray for you and anticipate God's movement in your life.  Please let me join with you in this.  The e-mail is below:

I'm praying this message falls in the hands of some people who are really ready to believe God for some things.  I do hope you will let me pray for you.

Testimony - great customers, great tips, $400 refunded from my school, Financial blessings

I had to blog about this.  I couldn't keep this to myself.  Something happened a couple days ago.  Just to share a little bit of the backstory before I tell you, my husband and I had a huge financial crisis about 3 years ago.  Things have gotten better little by little but it takes grind, especially on his part.  He is a great husband and dad so he takes pleasure in providing for his family.  This is a great entry point into what I'm about to share with you.  As we were approaching the beginning of the school year there were some other expenses approaching as well.  My husband and I believe our kids should be involved in extra curricular activities.  As they get older we feel they need constructive ways to channel their energy.  And they need to get away from the constant lure of the Ipad.  This is a big challenge for today's generation and you have to be proactive, especially with your children.  Anyway,  my daughter wa...

Starting your day

When I begin my day with a fast pace and a mind to "get things done" it really never ends well.  I burn out pretty fast.  When I take a "rest stop" at the very beginning of my day with God and linger a little, the day always goes better.  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.  It seems as if when I don't start my day with God a cycle of self-dependence starts and it never ends well.  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...

Think before you defend yourself

I get on social media and I do my best not to be critical of anyone.  It's not my place.  I do find it kind of interested how personal relationships, insecurities, and hurts are expressed where the whole world can see.  Social media is like this enigma that continues to spark my interest.  I find myself asking "why would he/she share something so deep and personal with people who don't know them or even care?".  I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing.  I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern.  The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media.  I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within .  Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. ...
