This week has been a hectic one.  Besides starting my blog which has been exciting and a little time consuming, we are getting ready to start the children's ministry I mentioned in a previous post.  We are starting from scratch and many of the leaders were not familiar with the program.  I've had to help give some training, but mostly organize and track down our materials.  I have list after list of things to do/buy/ask about. 

The coordinator and I both homeschool and were talking last night about how time consuming this is on the front end.  It has certainly impacted school with my daughters at least this week.  As our years of homeschooling drift by, I have become less uptight about having to scrap our schedule for a little while and be more flexible -- homeschooling gives us that very opportunity.  A year or two ago, I would have been stressed that no learning would take place at all, but now we fit it in when we can and know that we will be back to our routine in a couple weeks.

I thank God for this small gain.  I have had to trust the Lord and allow Him to direct my steps each day, each hour, each minute.  I must commit my daily schedule to Him and allow him to give me direction.  In Christ, Talya
