The Simple Woman's Daybook - 14 April 2008

FOR TODAY


Outside my Window...a very dark night without stars or moon


I am thinking...how quiet the house is when it's asleep


I am thankful for... the Lord allowing Jane to remain with us after the anaphylactic response to her allergy shots today... she was almost gone so quick.


From the kitchen... planning steak, potatoes and asparagus for dinner.


I am creating... white curtains for my bedroom.


I am going...to call Jane's allergist first thing in the morning.

I am reading..."Passionate Housewives Desperate for God"


I am hoping...for a non-eventful week spent at home doing housework, caring for babies, and homeschooling


I am hearing...the heater... it's 32 degrees outside... where is Spring?


Around the house... are sleeping children


One of my favorite things... baby snuggles


A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... getting the guest room ready for Steadfast's sister and niece! :)


Here is a picture thought I am sharing for you... Bronwyn at seven weeks.

Praise God for His faithful protection! I've gone thru a few scary events like that with my oldest (allergy induced asthma).
I'm enjoying my first visit here & hope to return again soon.

Why we allow God to plan our family size.

( Allow? Allow God? Who am I to allow God? ) “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Proverbs 3:5, 6 Sometimes people ask me what scripture we base our family size on. I think they expect me to quote verses like "Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.” - Psalm 127:3-5 Or to quote all the "Be fruitful and multiply" verses. Or they expect me to recant how, throughout the Bible, God considers children a blessing to be desired (in the stories of Abraham & Sarah... of Isaac & Rebecca... of Rachel & Leah... of Hannah) But for us it was not only what we found in scripture, but in looking at God'...

What do you do...

What if you long for something, but you have a spiritual conviction not to pursue that something... but you see other Christians pursuing it and validating their reasons.... and you feel your reasons look foolish to them, and you feel foolish for standing in what you believe to be true... yet you know you still cannot pursue it, because you have no doubt it is wrong? How does anyone make a stand anymore in this world? There are compromises right and left and people rushing to validate their reasons, and ready to shout "don't you dare judge me!" When I'm not judging, just stating my own stand. If they feel hurt... "socked in the stomach"... isn't it perhaps because the Spirit is convicting them? If there is no truth to my stance, why should it phase them? We are usually hurt most by the truth, when we are not standing in it, but our spirit knows we should be. If someone says "your daughter is a brat" and you know she is not, it doesn...
