What a beautiful day! The sun is out and shining. The breeze is carrying all sorts of gorgeous leaves to the ground for a beautiful tapestry to walk on and the sky is a beautiful blue with hardly a cloud in sight.

Today has been a bit of a challenge. To be honest, the last several days have been quite a challenge. I have been struggling with homeschooling and struggling with depression.

Several have told us to be more "relaxed" in our homeschooling. I'm still trying to figure out what that means. We have to do "x" amount of pages per day with the curriculum we've chosen or we won't finish it in this school year. I cannot afford to purchase more curriculum. We simply do not have the money.

Others have said we need to do unit studies and those DO look interesting to me. However, I do not have the finances to purchase them. So there again that is out.

I've been praying hard and waiting for His answer. So far, I've heard nothing. I'm anxious, uptight and waiting for the Lord to speak. All I hear is silence. I am still praying though.

I trust Him not to let us down. I believe He will speak, but in His time. It is difficult to wait upon the Lord, but it's my only hope.

Hi,
You're not alone with tiredness and depression but the Lord God has you right where He wants you - seeking after Him. So, it doesn't matter if you receive an answer...just seek Him. There's always more to learn than what we often first realise. Often he wants to teach us something we are barely aware of- we can think something else is a priority but all along the Father has different ideas. His ways are not our ways...and sometimes He conceals things and then chooses the right time to reveal them to us - our job is to keep seeking after Him first and foremost.

Bless ya,
Susan <><
