If you don’t mind posts that only take a few minutes and may
not be all that “refined”, you’ll have a bit more to read here.
My husband has been asking me for weeks….okay, maybe months
(not proud of this)…to post more updates.
I stopped updating as much as I felt it was taking too much time….something
that I want to use as best I can. But
when my husband wants me to use my time doing something that I’m not doing,
making excuses isn’t an option. So while
I have tried this and that to find time to update more, it hasn’t
happened. Tonight I thought…I just need
to do it. The Lord just wants us to obey
and then He will bless and what I have found is He often multiplies my time
when I use it in the way He directs.
Soooo all that to say, hi!
When I think of what is on my heart to share with others, I think of 4 main
areas:
*Missions- I LOVE
missions! Sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ
with others; discipling and teaching others in the Word of God; life on a
foreign field; stories of what God is doing here
*Home School/Teaching-
I LOVE to teach!! I LOVE home
schooling my children! When I was a
little girl and people would ask me what I wanted to do when I grew up (not
sure if I’ll ever really grow up J
), I always said 3 things…. I want to be a wife/mother; I want to be a missionary; I want to be a teacher. I always hoped the Lord would allow me to
have one of those “dreams”. He gave me
ALL of them!
*Encouraging others-
The Lord is so good and so faithful and teaches me so many things. I LOVE sharing what the Lord is doing in my
life with others! I love giving Him the
glory and encouraging others.
*Family- I LOVE my family!
I really, really love my hubby! I
love our children! I am so blessed!
Half of the time, when I think I should update, I just can’t
think of what to share….I have so much I’d love to share and just can’t decide. I can’t decide what to eat when my husband
takes me out for a date. I just want him
to choose for me. Drives him nuts! J So I came up with a plan...
*Missions Monday- Posts about the work here in Mexico
*Teaching Tuesday- Home school posts; day in the life posts; teaching ladies and children
*Who or What you can pray for Wednesday- Often times people want to pray for a missionary, but aren't sure what to pray about. God loves to hear and answer prayer and we'd love to share some specific things you can pray about with us.
*Thursdays Thoughts- What the Lord has laid on my heart or is teaching/has taught me
*Family Friday- Posts about our family
I know….I can hear Daniel right now, “Babe, (that’s what he
calls me ;) )….you are such an extremist.
You go from posting once every blue moon to wanting to post 5x a week.” I know, I know. But sometimes if I just have a goal, it’s
easier to stick to it than having none at all in which I do nothing. I figure I can't post any less really. ;)
So, the posts may be short or long. Most of the pictures will probably be off my
phone. But I love pleasing my hubby J And for those who are interested, I would
love to continue to share what the Lord is doing here! He is so wonderful!
See you mañana J
