The Heart of the Home
The Heart of the Home seeks to equip women as they study God's Word
and encourage them to treasure God with all of their heart
(Matt 6:19-21), and guard their heart (Prov. 4:23),
by recognizing that they are the heart of the home.

Though many of us, including myself, have never met Marsha (and David), in person we all feel like we know her and are all reeling from the news of the profound loss of their precious Christian. If you are not aware please go here to read of the loss of their youngest son this past week.
Keep their family in your prayers in the coming days, weeks, and months, and consider offering what sympathy you feel led to or a gift to their church in memory of Christian. What a fitting tribute to this little boy to give to missions to carry the Word to a lost and hurting world.
I know for me personally I have enjoyed getting to know Marsha's family and her boys through her sharp witty posts and insightful humor into life. Though in this world of cyber-everything where so many relationships are surface only, Marsha reaches out and intimately shares her life with you and gets involved with yours. I count her as a friend though we have never met face-to-face.
I look forward to meeting Christian when we all sit at Jesus' feet.

I have made a post asking for people to cover the Drews family in prayer for 24 hours leading up to the 25th of September, marking one month without "Dozer". Please stop by and add your name if you'd like, and share it on your blog for others that might be willing to "help" this family through prayer.
Thanks,
Amy (aka Dandelion Seeds)

Just stopped by your blog and wanted to tell you that I agree with you about Marsha. I too have never met her, but consider her a dear friend. I too am lifting her up in prayer daily.
God bless,
Samantha

GODSPEED
by Edmund Blair Leighton (1900)
In medieval times, a knight wore the colors of his lady when competing in tournaments or going to battle. The knight would replace his coat of arms with the lady's colors. By offering a scarf or other small piece of clothing, it was one visible way a lady showed her devotion to her knight and also encouraged him. This went along with one of the knightly vows of protecting a lady and her interests, even unto death. This painting represents this medieval tradition.
I choose this as a representation of my blog for all the military wives who send their knight-husbands to work each day, send them to the field for training, or see their husbands deploy .
My blog will have some of my personal thoughts on our own journey of homeschooling or other insights or encouragements I have the leading to share.
My prayers are with each and every one of you who visit my blog.
