Titus 2:3-5
Are you a sensible mom? My greatest desire is to grow in this characteristic as God continues to mature me in this journey of faith. I would love it if you would join me! - charlotte

Learning to mother all over again.
Posted by on November 30, 2011
With a seventeen, almost eighteen year old and six more children trailing behind him, you would think that I have this mothering thing down.
But what I am learning is that I am discovering the mother I want to be as I get a second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth chance to DO and BE all over again.
In some cases it is a chance to see these moments as they really are… fleeting.
To really listen when one of the kids talks to me.
To discipline instead of ignore.
To love and cherish the right now.
To teach.
In other cases it is just a change of perspective that only comes with a trail of failure, mistakes and gracious second chances from my Loving Father as well as my kids.
To work on my tone and delivery instead expecting my children to give me grace.
To see that I am not always right. (I know this one is a big surprise)
To not always be in such a hurry.
I am excited about who my oldest son is becoming and know that God will use my successes as a mother as well as my failures to perfect His perfect plan in him. I look forward to all God has for him.
So I don’t regret for one moment the time that has been wasted through my sin, inadequacy or impatience. Instead I know that I see that only by God’s grace and mercy that I have been able to grow is wisdom. I thank Him for His goodness, knowing that I have been taught of the Lord.
…And am thankful to be learning to mother all over again.

Give me the strength and endurance to work hard no matter what the obstacles next week. Help me to finish well. Help me to also finish any loose ends from this past week today.
Friday’s Prayer
Posted by on November 18, 2011
Please give our family like-minded friends. Give my kids friends who will encourage them in righteousness and rebuke them in love. I pray for encouraging, godly friends who will help me to grow in faith. Help me to encourage others and bring people into my circle. Give me a humble heart that acknowledges that God is working in different ways in each family and in each family’s homeschool. Help me to build up and not tear others down. I pray for a servant’s heart and the ability to reach out to those around me. I pray that I would model that for my children and that they would also reach out to those around them. Help our family to make a difference in our community, yet be protected from the evil one (John 17:15).
