Homeschool Moms: You CAN Finish Well

Homeschool Moms: You CAN Finish Well

I homeschooled. When March came, I was exhausted. December to May is the longest stretch, and everyone gets spring fever. Of course, you want to finish well and you CAN!

My guest this week was Jennifer Henn, veteran homeschool mother. She said to tell your children they may stop when they reach a certain point in the textbook. No one completes the text, ever. What a great incentive. Also, moms can band together to have a work day in their house as a break. Jennifer had tons of suggestions.

Welcoming March As A Whirlwind

Welcoming March As A Whirlwind

It has been a whirlwind these past few weeks… from college students praying non-stop to last week’s release of Jesus Movement.  The wind is blowing and I’m wondering, do you feel it?

Dear Father, thank you for giving us breath. If you had stopped there, we would have had cause to praise you as long as we lived. However, you also gave us the gift of eternal life. Oh, may the certain hope of eternity with you fill us with songs of joy. We covet revival for our nation and pray that hearts awakened to you in Kentucky would spread to every state. Bring us to our knees in true repentance and humility. Oh, empower us so we would live out our faith. In Jesus’ Name, we pray, Amen.

Grateful for Sliced Bread

When a government official outlawed sliced bread in January of 1943, homemakers balked. The onset of World War II had introduced rationing as early as 1942, and they had learned to use coupons when purchasing paper, shoes, fabric, sugar, coffee, and metal. However, they had purchased pre-sliced bread for almost fifteen years and hated the inconvenience. Women attempted to comply. They yanked out ancient bread knives and butchered loaves for sandwiches and toast. However, lopsided bread annoyed everyone. Plus, irregularly shaped slices didn’t fit into the toaster. A saying went around the nation: “…the best thing since sliced bread.”

Adding to the frustration, government officials offered no clear-cut reason why sliced bread had created a problem. Machines for cutting bread already existed, so the ban wouldn’t save metal. Sliced bread required more wrapping to stay fresh, but the nation had no shortage of waxed paper. A lady wrote to the New York Times and grumbled that the ruling damaged national morale. Complaints erupted nationwide, and the officials withdrew the restriction about six weeks later. They claimed the prohibition ineffective.

In March 1943, Housewives purchased sliced bread gratefully. In the same way, I have a tendency not to be grateful for a dry basement until I have a leak. And I didn’t thank God for my freezer until all my food thawed. This year I’ve had to replace my freezer and repair a basement leak. The Lord is teaching me to be grateful. Look around your house today and find things to praise God for. I’m doing the same thing.
Psalm 140:13 Surely the righteous will give thanks to Thy name; The upright will dwell in Thy presence (Ps. 140:13 NAS)

Valentine’s Day: Discover How to Love Others

Valentine’s Day: Discover How to Love Others

This is our last segment on love for February and probably the hardest. Today people are divided more sharply than ever. To disagree with someone on politics or other topics can produce hatred or name calling. Very nasty.

In that environment, how can we love others? My guest this week was Author Peggy Sue Wells. She said if we hear a person’s story, we are more likely to understand their point of view. Her ideas were thought provoking!

Valentine’s Day: Marriage Tips

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, which is all about romance, and romance belongs in marriage. We want to have a great marriage for our children, but it’s also Biblical. The Word says marriage is a picture of Christ’s love for his bride.

Last week we had a lady who suffered through a rough marriage, but this week we have an author who has enjoyed a great marriage for almost 49 years. Terri Gillespie loves all things Jewish, and she offered marriage tips. She also described what a marriage ceremony during the time of Christ. Very interesting and useful!
