hi all! I wrote a nice post yesterday and apparently i had no idea what I was doing cause it is not there! oh well. jennifer showed me what to do so today i am trying again. I was saying how in about a week the kids go back to school until we leave and i can't believe it is only three months till then! Please pray as i try to get back into the hang of homeschooling (since Luke says he is not ready to go to school yet but he assured me he will one day when he is older like 18)! I am very excited for all Jesus will teach the kids in Manila and me too! I feel Jesus is already getting us prepared and i say yes, I need his gentle correction! I am attempting to declutter and deaccumulate as we get ready to leave and boy am i a pack rat! It feels good to my soul to shed things that take up space and often times lead to my frustration and ungodly attitude towards the kids. It is easier to give their things away or throw them out. I'm next. My closet reflects my spirit often cluttered, unorganized, inefficient. I am eager to cleanse my life and spirit of so many unnecessaries! Pray for me in this endeavor. I want passion for jesus but this life is so comfortable, convenient, and complacent. I need you holy spirit...really my spirit longs for you but my flesh puts up a nasty fight!
