Morning Gathering


  It is a joy to see my beloved family enjoying the simple pleasure of life. Breakfast in the kitchen in front of the "little" tv. We are so blessed to have the children's father working at home much of the time. It allows for these moments of togetherness, that otherwise would be lost to the hustle of busier lives.
 The moments I remember most about growing up, are exactly these types of memories. Time together at the family table. It was "required" then, by our father. The Sunday meal was mandatory. But it instilled in me a real need to have the same with us. I think that the family table is a need that we all have. Think of the stories of Jesus with His beloved disciples. They would "lie" around the table. It was a very intimate time for them. And Jesus did instill, and teach important truths at those times.
  Perhaps a New Year's resolution to "observe" family table time would enhance all our lives just a little further. Just one more step away from the outside world to recharge our spiritual fires.

My hubby works in our basement. Isn't it a blessing to have
our husbands around so much for the family. He's only been working from home for a year or so and it has blessed our family. God has used his work situation to bring our family really close. I'm so grateful to the Lord for our family time.
God is awesome!
