This week & MIT's

Well this week I am taking Spring Break w/ the kids. This was a hard decision for me because I really don't like missing work. I love what I do. But I do love being home too. I am blessed to be a mom that is for sure.

Taking to heart what I've been learning in Sunday School I have implimented my MIT's (Most Important Things) for this week. And I am sure that I'll get them all done.

Today is fairly simple: Laundry, Blog, Meeting & P90X -> I have completed the blog, working on the laundry (2 loads done 2 to go) and my meeting is at 1pm. I have completed a few other items as well...basic stuff like dishes, making the tea and reading Proverbs 4 to the children.

So for Tuesday...Devotion with the kids & then the kids and I get to go through all their cloths and pull out all the winter cloths & donate the cloths that Nichole & Logan have outgrown. That will be an all day ordeal. I also need to call the paper and put the bed & dresser in the for sale section. Then spend quiet time in the evening w/ Mike as the kids are having dinner with their Nanny & Pappy and do our P90X

Wednesday...Beach Day with the youth group. I am looking forward to that! Nothing else on the agenda and I refuse to feel guilty about that! I will have to do my P90X routine early in the morning.

Thursday...home all day -> paperwork, reading and bible study are on the agenda and then P90X with Mike when he gets home.

Friday...will start w/ Bible Study and then go into the station for about an hour, hour & a half and then the kids and I will have lunch w/ Mike on the island...then spend the day at the park so the kids can have a little fun. And of course round out the day with P90X when Mike gets home.

Well that is the game plan anyway...we'll see if it works out that way ;-) You know what they say about your plans v. God's plans for you. They seldom ever match up, unless it is that you ask Him first what it is that you should be doing. I really am looking forward to the week and all that is waiting.


~Peace & Blessings~

When you ask...

Jesus to use you, be ready! I knew when I completely surrendered my life to Christ that it would be a challenge and not easy. (Romans 7:25) Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin. I honestly thought that I had no comfort zone, but it seems that every time I get "comfortable", God changes the direction in which I am going or He intercedes personally by allowing me to encounter a life that is going through a struggle, and it "interferes" with "my life". So I have come to the understanding I will never be comfortable, and I am becoming OK with that. I have also come to realize that if I am in a state of being comfortable, then I am not growing spiritually. (Psalm 119:2) Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart Last night during Bible study as we were going over the passage in Ephesians 4,...

Discipline In Discipleship

Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is easy. We learn at a young age that Jesus is knocking at our hearts and is asking to enter in. We sing songs of God's love. We so very quickly accept God's forgiveness when we sin. We can justify our actions through Jesus loving us as we are. Following Jesus as Master and Teacher is hard. Again, we learn at a young age that the world is a cold, cruel place. We view hatred on TV and social media. To forgive when we have been wronged is almost impossible. To put another person's needs before ours is practically unheard of. To understand someone else's actions takes too much effort. Jesus never said being a follower would be easy. As a matter of fact, he said that it would be a narrow road that few would be able to travel. "S o in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,   for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.  “Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to...

Inside Outside

Why do we view sins as not so bad, bad, and really bad? I have been thinking a lot about this over the past week. Isn't sin, sin? Are we to judge as God judges? God's word says; "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." -Romans 3:23 My sins, and they are many, are not better or worse than yours or your neighbors - or anyone else's for that matter. So who are we to pass judgement on another? Why spew contentment and hate when we know what another person's sin is? Isn't God's forgiveness and love for them just as much as it is for us? There is no "them" and "us" in the eyes of God so we need to stop dividing people up into these two categories. " Dear friends, let us love one another,  for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God  and knows God.   Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.   This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son  into the wor...
