1. Being family rich and cash poor is the best way to be.
2. Friends are gifts from God.
3. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
4. We are called to love our neighbor as ourselves, but that means that we need to first love ourselves.
5. We can't fill another persons cup, if our own cup is empty.
6. When I put aside my own needs and wants and do something purely to bless another, God blesses me!
7. I am my husband's helper, not his conscience.
8. It's never okay to neglect my children's emotional needs, it is okay to neglect the housework sometimes (it'll still be there tomorrow!)
9. Some days are going to be tough, but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
10. True friends know all your faults, and love you anyway.
11. There is nothing I can ever do to deserve the love and grace of my Lord Jesus Christ, it is a gift, not something that can be earned or deserved.
12. God can't untangle the knots, if I don't sit still.
13. The hardest math to learn, is how to count your blessings
14. I am not defined by what I see in the mirror.  Who am I to say that what God has made is not good enough?
15. God doesn't call the equipped, he equips the called.
16. I'll never be perfect, and that's okay.
17. No matter how bad things get, God will never leave me.
18. Tomorrow is new day.
19. The journey of life is full of detours, wrong turns and potholes, but I still need to take time to smell the roses on the road-side and enjoy the journey!
20. Jesus is the wind beneath my wings - I can't fly without him!
21. God wants me to enjoy the simple things in life, he wants me to find joy every day.
22. Sometimes I just need to stop what I'm doing and sing praises to the Lord.
23. Being a wife and mother is the BEST job in the world!  Being a home-maker ROCKS!!
24. The race is hard, and I can't do it under my own strength.  But Jesus runs with me, and carries me when I can't take another step.

Blessings

P.S I've learnt WAY more than that this year! The main things I've learned are that I've got A LOT to learn, and that teachers learn more than students!! LOL

P.P.S I realise that this is the 2nd blog entry I've posted I've done since saying that I won't be blogging until after New Years!! LOL blogging is addictive!!  I think I can safely say that I won't be blogging MUCH over the Christmas/New Year period, but there might be the odd one ;-)
