Missey died on my Birthday. Although I never met her IRL, I have known her for 5 years, from the start of my homeschooling journey and she was a true inspiration to me. I posted a reply to a mom who is scheduled for a c-section and is feeling fear after hearing about Missey's death. I got to thinking that even though we don't have any possible explanation of why a young mother would die, God knows and His ways and thoughts are not our ways and thoughts. I am learning to appreciate this life journey and recognize that Life is indeed Precious! I have been convicted to spend more time with my children than my computer, and if that means sacrificing that precious time away from home working to try to buy all the stuff that I think I "need." I have all I need, really. I have taken so much for granted and only now do I comprehend the magnitude of God's calling to me as a mother. Not as a writer, not as a "know-it-all-curriculum-junkie" and not as a lawyer. Those dreams may come someday, but for now, I have a great ministry right here in my own home.
May we all take time out each day to appreciate our children and dance with them.
Shalom B'Yeshua! |
