Homeschooling a Houseful

The beginning of a new week

I am up too early this morning, but it has been good. We did not go to church yesterday as we are still battling this virus. Seems as though we are at the end, I pray.

I am reading about brokenness and what really struck me this morning in Nancy's book is how brokenness is not a feeling or emotion. Brokenness is a choice. an act of our will. True brokenness is an ongoing, constant way of life. Brokenness is the shattering of my self-will. I pray that this is something I can live out, today and everyday.

Today will be a normal school day. I don't have any errands to run, well except taking my daughter to work at 5. The children have already been reminded of what I expect of them today. We will do school until lunch time and it is my hope that the children will be done with their school work by then. It weighs heavy on me if they are still doing school in the afternoon. I really like to have the bookwork done so we can do other things in the afternoon.

Hmmm, wonder if that is what God wants today? :)

Remember, a day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel.
