and another day.

SO, it's been rough this week. Not just for me. For good friends as well. Keep Millstone in general in your prayers. I am pretty sure that there is spiritual warfare goin on here. Bad. It so hard. So hard to keep your focus when stupid stuff gets in the way. Why on earth do we let the little minutia of this world get in our way??? I mean really! If a dish sits in the sink for a few hours, are the walls gonna tumble down? Will God not forgive that as well? If a bed is not made, clothes are not washed, books are left lying around....will the sky fall? No. It won't. None of that junk matters in the grand scheme of life. Yes, it's nice to have a clean house. But, if you want it perfect....don't have kids. In fact, don't let OTHER people kids in you house either. They breed mess. If you want a perfectly unmessy life, you're gonna be bored. You're gonna be lonely. Life is messy. Right now, I am deep in the mess. Every felt your heart beat in your head? Your eyes? Gotten dizzy? That's where I was today. Not cool. I need to let stuff go. I need to learn to let comments that feel disparaging to me go. I need to focus on the things of God and get my eyes off myself, my life, my wants, my desires and look up. Not literally "up"...just "up" at Him. He loves me every day of my life. He knew me before I was born. He knows how many hairs are on my head. He knew me in my mother's womb. He knit me together. I am wonderfully and fearfully made. He is excited about me. He thinks I am beautiful, because I am His design. You can say the same things, do you know Him personally? You can.

Since you homeschool, why not read my anti-darwinist and math and logics related, geocentric resources on the web?

Bravo for you! As a long-time educator I have great respect and admiration for home-schoolers. It takes a lot of dedication and courage.
Don't worry, we all have days when our path is bumpy. Don't trip over those rocks; step over them and keep going. You'll do fine.

I agree with P. Cooper, even though i'm not an educator but a student in public high school. It takes a lot of effort to do what you are doing but if it works out for you and your kids well than it's all worht it in the end ^-^

I can totally relate. I need to let things go and remember to enjoy the small things in life and don't let the day to day things get me down. Sometimes it's hard to do, but at the end of the day, it's worth it.

Life should be full of love and laughter... not housework.

Hay GOD bless you. You know the LORD loves you so much with a clean house, or a messy one. Cause the FATHER sees HIS SON in you. And HE is spotless. Ow yeah. Anyway, see you in Glory.
