JOY - it's the new black!!



Joy is something that is so hard for us to have, or even receive. So many bad things happening in this world, or even in our families. We are continuously worrying about something. When in the word of God, it specifically speaks about worry: "Worrying does not do any good; who here can claim to add even an hour to his life by worrying? - Matthew 6:27

As a mother, in this homeschool journey, and not in it because i'm paranoid of the world (as many like to think so). I am in it , because I know my daughter deserves the best and if it cannot be provided in a way that she can learn it, then why not do it with the help of God. BUT I DIGRESS! 


Joy needs to be part of our daily lives in all moments! seasons! storms! and etcetera! There should be no  reason for a Christian, that has the hope of eternal life in their hearts; to be joyless. So I found one of my favorite pastors Francis Chan speaking a bit about it.




So I hope with that 3 minute and some word can bring up your spirit. Because our families are our first ministry; and it happens to the best of us. We get tired, frustrated and feel like we've done nothing because our child still decides to do whatever they feel like and not what you're trying to instill at times. Alas! don't give up hope, find JOY in your ministry and keep MOVING!!

A little history... MOTIVATES!!!


I know through out history there have been many important and key people in this world that had some type of ADD or Learning Disability. This is a little tidbit of Thomas Edison's biography;

"In 1854, the family moved to Port Huron, Michigan, where Edison attended public school for a total of 12 weeks. A hyperactive child, prone to distraction, he was deemed “difficult” by his teacher. His mother quickly pulled him from school and taught him at home. At age 11, he showed a voracious appetite for knowledge, reading books on a wide range of subjects. In this wide-open curriculum Edison developed a process for self-education and learning independently that would serve him throughout his life."

A quote from a mother of 4, (3 with either ADD or a Learning Differences) sums it my feelings of this great part of history: "As a result of one mother's efforts, the world is a very different place." -of Different Minds Book by Maren Angelotti (http://www.ofdifferentminds.com)


Whatever it may be, that you as a mom are struggling with- You will always be the #1 person to support and love your child. When you step into that role you step into what you were made for. When you are in the role you were meant for, for some reason your world has a reason to be and so do you.

God bless you guys!!! Couldn't hold back on sharing this :)
