Uncertain times in Life

Ups and downs

downs and ups

Sometimes life feels like a roller coaster ride

Not knowing what tomorrow may bring.


Life has been a bit like this lately for me.

New things

exciting things

scary things

and then

not really knowing what is coming around the corner

but staying peaceful....


Grace fills my heart

knowing the Lord is leading

Yep...there may be things I might not want to happen

but then it might just happen


This week is going to be extra busy

I'm getting the kids schooling ready and the panicky feeling is hitting home

ok...not home per se

but my insides...yeah, I'm peaceful about the bigger picture of my life

Summer is ending for us

 I feel like I didn't really get that much done.

I did enjoy it very much though...it's been so refreshing to

 CHILL



Still things remain unfinished

thus the panic

I have many plans and hoping I can get those to happen

We'll see....


School will start (hopefully) next week...

that's if everything goes as planned. 

Not sure though...not sure! 

ha ha ha


Hubby's been working out of the house lately so my computer access has been limited

maybe that's a good thing...

Things can get done around here. 

He's revamping his business

just hoping things work out for us...

yep...even in uncertain times

peace remains in my heart

I have been feeling a little bit like that too. Times like these are great opportunities to lean on God.

Blessings! xox

Aren't you thankful for Jesus during these hard times, knowing that He is with us and we aren't alone...that's where the peace comes from!

Do you have everything you need for this next school year? I totally understand that panicky feeling! It happens when I sit down to plan, but slowing starts going away as the words get on the paper and out of my brain! It's a big job! I know you'll do great!

love and hugs,

Definitely feel closer to the Lord in trying and uncertain times. I find it's very important too to not let my heart wander when I'm facing uncertainty.

be blessed,

Oh yes, God has used those times to help me rest in Him. What amazes me now, with my hubby gone, is I don't feel like I have to "try" and have peace. He just gives me peace. All the worries I have, don't seem so big or bothersome as He allows me (not that I'm so strong or filled with a great faith) to trust in HIM completely!

What a great God!!

What Makes us Better Mothers? How do we View others?

What makes us better mothers? Do you homeschool or send your kids to school? Do you cloth diaper, use disposables or both? Do you breastfeed, bottle feed or both? Do you home birth, hospital birth or done both? Do you natural birth, use epidurals, or done both? Do you cook with whole foods or open up a box of Kraft Mac and Cheese? Do you home church or are a member of mega church? Do you wear a head covering, long skirts or have short hair and wear trendy clothes? Do you do attachment parenting or let your babies cry to sleep? Do you have 2 children or 20? Do you use birth control or not? Do you live on your own land/farm or do you live in a small apartment? Do you work or stay home with the kids? Do you immunize or never dare to inject your child? I am going to be very transparent and open with you all. I don't know if it's just hormones but what I have swimming in my heart and mind lately needs to come out. So this is the case for my posting this side of me. I know we can ...

Joyful Mother wasn't very Joyful....

A short little post to let you know I AM OK!!  I know the last post was rather hopeless than hopeful.   I am doing much better and I do feel like there has been a bit of a breakthrough in my attitude.  I have been letting every little thing on this journey bother me so very much.  It doesn't matter what it wass....it was bothering me.  I was even snappy to my mother-in-law the other day and it wasn't very pretty or Christ Like at all!!  :(    I am so very thankful my mom-in-law loves me unconditionally and embraces me even when I am ugly.  Seriously!  I was letting everything bother me!!  I had been making myself out to be a burden or a "visitor" rather than a daughter.  I wasn't allowing myself to be accepted rather I was making myself out to be a burden.  A burden that no one had put on me.  I did this to myself by listening to the enemy's lies.  After a good talk with my mom-in-law and with the Lord, ...

Turn that TV off!!

Finding time to blog has been a little tough lately.  I don't know why.  Maybe it's because I feel I don't have anything good to share but then again that would be totally out of character for me because I am one of those women who can talk your ear off for hours and share with you my life story.  Truly!  So.....not having anything to say is just a big excuse.....ok so maybe it is finding the time.  As of late, I've been really, really striving to do the best I can in being a good steward over my time, children, and homemaking.  My heart's desire is to have an orderly home, orderly children, and a peaceful atmosphere. There are those days where I dream of being in a place where life is a bit simple....where I don't have modern technology like computers, tv, game systems trying to grab the attention of my children.  I don't know why this is so easy to "default" to when a "break" is needed or when I need some "alone time" or j...
