Do you want purpose?
I have just had the great opportunity to read a fellow writers latest ebook – and it is great! I highly recommend it for every married couple.
It is called “Purposeful Planning” By Phyllis Sather.
Phyllis takes you step-by-step through the process of planning a time together for your family to help determine the path the Lord is choosing for each area of your life. Her family has followed this format for over 12 years and has found that it provides the compass they’ve needed to plan and stay on course.
This time-tested method of planning will give your family new direction for the future. Start today! Choose the dates for your planning weekend, read her book which has the entire “how to” included, and go for it!
It is awesome. It gives you great ideas to make a planning weekend work. She includes so many different points to focus on and discuss together during your weekend away. It is practical and inspiring.
It is only $9.95 (US) and is worth every cent. It is an instant download product!

Don’t Have Enough?
Do you think that you DON’T have enough? You don’t have enough money – always seem to be struggling?
Do you think that you DON’T have enough energy?
What about your parenting? – Never enough patience or wisdom to deal with those daily issues that pop up?
How about the homeschooling? – Do you feel like you are not making it? You haven’t got enough resources or knowledge of what to do next?
What about you and God? Do you feel inadequate to obey Him? Is there a lack of desire to read His word? to worship Him?
Well, have I got the verse for you today -
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that ALWAYS having ALL sufficiency in EVERYTHING, you may have an ABUNDANCE for EVERY good deed
2 Corinthians 9 v 8 NASB
That is the truth – As a child of God you have enough and even MORE to perform your daily tasks. He has promised us that in everything – homeschooling, parenting, healthy eating – EVERYTHING that HE has given us what we need. He is our source of energy, power, strength, wisdom, knowledge to get what we have on our to-do list done.
SO why are we not accessing this sufficiency in Christ?
Maybe you are trying to do everything in your own steam. Have you asked God daily to plan your day? Have you put Him first in your homeschool, in your day?
Maybe what you are trying to do isn’t what God would have you do – maybe it is the wrong task or maybe it is the wrong timing.
Let’s get back to God’s plans – because when we are fulfilling God’s daily calling on our lives then we will have everything we need to work it out. EVERYTHING – we will be lacking for nothing in fact we will have extra left over for more good works – AWESOME!
