One Nation Under God

As we celebrate Independence Day, I would like to encourage you (if you aren't already) to commit to praying for a widespread Christian revival in our country (and Europe)--especially among young people.  I could be wrong, but it seems like the number of evangelical Christians drops significantly with each successive generation, and that grieves me.


I have been praying off and on for a nationwide revival in our country, but have not made any effort to pray consistently.  I am truly sorry for that, because I believe that if all of the committed Christians banded together and began praying fervently for revival, God would definitely answer our prayers. Today as I was praying, I felt God gently rebuke me for that.  I desperately want to see another "Great Awakening" in our country, and I know that the King of kings and Lord of lords is absolutely ready.

I feel the same way about Europe, especially France.  I have no idea what the current spiritual conditions are in France, but when I was there in the 1991-1992 school year (although I wasn't a committed Christian yet) I sensed strongly that Europe is an continent that is (for the most part) extremely closed to the Good News of Jesus Christ--extremely dead spiritually.  My heart grieves for them as well.

God bless America!  ... AND Europe!

Missing You

By
We've been having internet problems since last Friday evening. It goes on and off sporadically. Someone should be coming today to fix it (and of course it's working perfectly right now, lol!). I don't usually blog in the middle of the day (too much house stuff to do) , but I gotta grab the internet while I can. I'm desperate! It has actually startled me to realize how connected I am to all of you--even you, Ronalyn, and I have never met you. I have so missed reading blogs, commenting on them, and posting. I have really felt disconnected to you all (yeah, I'm a "recovered hick" but I can't erase that expression from my vocabulary--however, I don't say, "y'all." I do draw the line there. Sorry if I'm offending anyone--as in my sister and brother-in-law, but I don't consider you guys hicks.) . So I hope the person who comes to repair the internet issue can perform a miracle so I don't have to miss you anymore :)

A Rare Moment Captured on Film

By
No, it's not a rare moment that my kids brush their teeth (well, it would be if left up to them!). I walked into the bathroom tonight to see both my kids in the bathroom brushing their teeth ... and this is the rare moment--they actually got along! I had to run and get my camera to document this rare moment of parental bliss. And now I'm sharing it with you. Now isn't your day more complete?!

Time Will Tell

By
It's always so "wow" to me when I'm going about my business as usual, and "out of the blue" God answers a prayer. I think He's answering my prayer. Time will tell. I've been praying for quite a while about what to do about employment. I want to find a job that I can do only during the day when the kids are at school--I still need to be available to take them to school and pick them up because sometimes my husband needs to go to work early. I have thought about various jobs (subbing, tutoring, doing something with technology 'cause I'm good with computers, finding a business I could do at home that doesn't require much training, etc.) , but child care is usually an issue and for the life of me I can't figure out what I could do from home. I'm soooo not business-oriented. It is so important to me to be there for my kids on a regular basis. I enjoy taking them to school. I enjoy being the one who gets to pick them up from school (exc...
