This Week… Family Photo’s and Family Time
This was a good week in our little school room. I haven’t yet felt like I could say that this year. Not sure I can say we have hit our groove, but I’m starting to feel that we are beginning to make progress. Bible: We continued our study of the Israelites in Egypt. Moses and Aaron have gone to Pharoah and asked for the right to go worship God. God has begun to perform signs and wonders amongst the Egyptians. Little Man Hard at Work, Notice He doesn’t sit up straight? History: We moved forward a bit in history. Joshua and Jericho. We just stepped up to this lesson and…

His Eye is on the Sparrow
This year Little Man is studying the Zoology of Flying Creatures. We have placed a bird feeder outside our classroom window so that he can get a chance to watch some of God’s beautiful Aviaries up close. It took several days before little flitting creatures were attracted to the feeder, but over the past couple of days we’ve seen a few little sparrows show up for a meal.Today, as he was working on his science lesson about endangered and extinct animals we saw a little sparrow perch on the edge of the feeder and begin eating. He quickly got a piece of paper and started sketching. He is quite excited…

Satan is a Liar
Devotional Thought The evangelists where we worship have been doing a sermon series on Satan. It has been quite interesting. The thing that has most amazed me though is how very closely Little Man has been listening. He has been taking notes, excitedly finding scriptures and even wanting to comment to me about the sermon while the sermon is being given. We have had to tell him, to write down his thoughts and share them with us later. Sunday night he leaned over to me and said, “Is Satan evil?” “Yes.” I replied. “How long will he be evil?” he asked. “Forever.” I said. “I wish there would be a…

The Fruit of the Spirit
Saying Goodbye to a Bible Class Teacher This week we said goodbye to a dear lady from our congregation. She has passed on into Paradise to await the return of our Lord. She was a strong woman who fought her cancer courageously until the end, without fear of death, but rather showing love for her family and friends during that time. I was heartened to see how deeply my son felt over this loss. He just simply could not understand why going to Paradise is a good thing when he will miss her so much. He said, “I miss her hugs.” He cried gently, not wanting others to see his…

The LORD’s Day
The Importance of the First Day of the Week, The Lord’s Day It’s after midnight as I reflect upon the day just past. It’s Monday now, the 2nd day of the week. When dawn arrives it will be another day of school and housework, possibly groceries. The day that is just ended was the first day of the week. The Lord’s Day. On this day in history, God created… He said, “Let there be light, and there was light.” Genesis 1:3. That’s it, He just said it and it happened. What an amazing thought… that was the first day of all, the first Sunday. It was truly the LORD’s Day because…
