It's Wednesday and things are pretty quiet. Our weather is mild and warm here still...especially today. At 74 degrees I am loving still being able to wear warm weather clothing. I dread putting my sandals away and yet I know within days that most probably will happen.
I am praying fervently for our country as we are really little more than a month away from our election. The big debate is tonight. I am going to watch it...I would rather be watching something else because I know it is going to be painful. I am praying for God's mercy on our nation and I hope that those who stayed home last election will go and make a stand and vote. Did you know only about 50% of Christians vote? These past four years have been long and I fear for our freedom...for our financial stability. I have seen it in my brother's life. He has struggled these past four years and it has left a mark on him, it has aged him. I know there are others like him out there. We need such a revival in this country. I am praying that God will put the right man in and if he so chooses for us to have another four years of of the same that we will have a revival in this land. I can think of no other reason to have to endure what we have all been enduring...but these are my thoughts and I am praying that I, myself will not go into a nose dive with the results...but I am prepared to just have faith and trust that God doesn't do anything without it coming out good in the end.
I took a walk down memory lane today and visited some of my most favorite homeschool sites. I am looking for one book in particular. I remember it vaguely. I remember the person vaguely but for the life of me I can't remember her name. It made me sad looking at all of those wonderful books...some that we we visited and some that we didn't have a chance to. Wish I could go back and start from the beginning. What wonderful memories I have.
Getting ready for another busy night here at dance. Soon pretty little ballerina's will be marching toward our doorstep anxiously awaiting their class. I am blessed. I am truly blessed!
Be Blessed!

What book are you looking for?
ReplyDeleteFrom all the comments on Facebook, it seems that it's going to be a very close presidential race.
My prayer list for tomorrow is for our country, city and state. I guess God wants me to be very persistent in my prayers, so that's what I'm going to do. :)
I'm praying, too, Joyce, for our country. I was greatly encouraged by the debate tonight. One of them looked Presidential and the other did not. lol I'm praying that it will be the same in the other debate. We definitely need a fresh revival in this country - so many people hurting and struggling - I know!
ReplyDeleteI miss those homeschooling years, too. Such precious memories!
Love - Julie
Just yesterday Ted walked into the room before he left for work, and told me how he missed those homeschooling days of working together and all the great memories he had of our time together.
ReplyDeleteI will never regret the years I've spent pouring time into my kids.
