Five smooth stones | 5 entries, 17 comments | | Five smooth stones, a giant defeated, and the most unlikely of warriors......isn't that just the wonderful way our amazing God works? I am the least likely of homeschoolers....I can still recall the days that I scoffed at the suggestions my friends would make that I too could do what they were doing. They were in my opinion....nuts!!! It is amazing how God can change our hearts without us even realizing it has been changed. And how He seems to just erase the mindset that held us hostage to our fears and doubts prior? I must be honest and tell you that homeschooling does not come as natural to me as it does for some. I stand on the battlefield daily fighting my "giants" that come to slay me and my joy and to rob me of this divine privilege I have been given. The battle against myself.... Fear, selfishness, distrust, pride, perfectionism, exhaustion, feelings of inadequacy, frustration, approval seeking...my giants come in many forms. I would be nothing if not for His grace and mercies made new everyday. When I am imperfect, He is gloriously perfect and I become the unlikely warrior. |
