My Mission

I think everyone needs a mission statement for everything they do....that really matters in life anyway. If you are called to be a Mom, have a mission statement. If you're called to be an Accountant, have a mission statement. I have been called, as a Mom to HomeSchool. Here are the verses that face me every time I go to plan another day, sitting in the front cover of my notebook, as a reminder of what I'm here for...

"...to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways, to obey His commands, to hold fast to Him and to serve Him with ALL your heart and ALL your soul."
Joshua 22:5

"Take to heart all the words I have solemnly declared to you this day, so that you may command your children to obey carefully all the words of this law.
They are not just idle words for you,
THEY ARE YOUR LIFE."
Deuteronomy 32:46

Moses had only a short time left with his loved ones when he spoke these words. He was urgent about the necessity of passing on the legacy of life to his children and grandchildren and all of his descendents thereafter. So his predecessor Joshua used words even children can understand(as all good teachers should) to make it clear the directions for living: Love, Walk, Obey, Hold (or Cling to Him), and Serve. These are the 5 words I will seek diligently after in order to teach them to my children in great hopes that they will do the same.

Learning how to follow Jesus, so He can M.A.K.E us more like Him...

Keep praying for us. One day down and Luke declared it (in a dinnertime prayer) the best day ever!! Of course, the first day is never too strenuous of a work load, so we'll see...
