rules for daily life

I'm doing a study on managing our lives with Elizabeth George's book "Life Management for Busy Women".  I hold the studies weekly by teleconference at www.christianladies.net (it's free to join!)

One thing that has really struck me in chapters 1-3 is the idea of "early" time and "first" time with the Lord.  Elizabeth really stresses this in her book-- but I like to think that there are a variety of ways we can spend time with the Lord--but however we choose to do it, we must ALWAYS abide in Him.

He alone makes our heart tick, and keeps on giving us the strength we need for our daily tasks, such as homeschooling.

I like the "Rules for Daily Life" on page 33 of her book:

"Begin the day with God
Open the book of God
Go through the day with God
Converse in mind with God
Conclude the day with God
Lie down at night with God"
(Life Management for Busy Women, Elizabeth George, p. 33)

Thanks for adding me as a friend. Welcome to HSB. I pray that we can exchange many shared blessings. You are starting out right by homeschooling your little girl from the beginning. She is precious! I will be praying that your first year is blessed. Can I encourage you by saying that each year gets better and better!

Blessings,
Lori
