Grace, Truth, Beauty

Grace Truth and Beauty

One of the joys of being a mom is teaching my children about God. Homeschooling has given me the opportunity to teach my children about the world, through the lens of God's Word. This is why my sweet friend Cathy and I began a class with our daughters, Lydia and Charlotte, which we call Grace, Truth and Beauty. Whether we are teaching our daughters at home or whether we have the opportunity to learn together, we endeavor to teach them about God and the World He created by looking for God's grace, truth and beauty in all He created. Through music, art, science, history, people, creation, writing, speech, crafts, sewing, exploring, field trips, catechism, Bible study, etc., we hope to lead them to the grace, truth and beauty of the One who created them and rescued them from sin and death and called them to shine for His glory.

It adds a special touch of joy multiplied when we have the opportunity to do this together. Of course what better way to start off Grace, Truth and Beauty than to have tea at the JH Adams Inn!

    One of the greatest delights of this season of homeschooling has been spending time with you, Lydia, and Charlotte in GTB.

    You went to the Inn again? Without me? I'm sure you had a great time.

Smile

Smile I rushed out the door into the world. Anything could happen. I may get in a car accident. I may trip and break my leg. They might not have everything I need at the store. They might not have toilet paper! I may get corona virus! I was going outside of my bubble into the scary world. I was going to the grocery store. It is not my favorite thing to do anyway but I used to enjoy it more because there were other humans there to talk to and to smile at. Now I am not so sure. Now all I see is masked men and women and children. It is not a happy sight. I may see someone I know and not recognize them. Everyone just looks so impersonal. It seems like another world where you can not recognize any one. I miss going out in public and seeing people’s expressions and smiles. I miss talking even small talk in the grocery isles. I miss the joy of seeing someone I know and getting a chance to chat and catch up on our families, children, grandchildren, parents, friends, while we stand in fron

Stuck at Home? What’s a Mother to do?

We have been dependent on so many things. Even Home-schoolers are not used to being at home to do school. We’ re often depende nt on co-ops to teach our children. We drive them around and get others to teach them instead of teaching them at home. C o-ops come in all shapes and sizes. They are a great option and a blessing. They provide friends, tutors for subjects we don’t feel as confident in . T hey give us a sense of community. We are also dependent on various other groups such as sports, dance, mock trial, b ible studies etc. None of these are bad things in and of themselves, but maybe we have looked to these too much and became so crazy busy that we did not have time to rest and be quiet before the Lord . And now f or many of us if not most, in our town, state, country and around the world, we are suddenly sheltering at home because of the covid19 pandemic that has hit the world. W e find ourselves alone at home with our children and spouse for an indefinite a

Josiah Nathan

June 14, 2014~ For Josiah 26 years ago today God blessed us with another boy. Josiah Nathan I can say, You continue to bring us joy. Precious mem'ries are here to stay. Forgetting times you did annoy. Your laughter, spunk and fun at play, When you were young was your employ. Learning the Word and how to pray Taught to believe and to enjoy. Salvation is real not here-say Delight in Jesus, He's your joy. The Word of God does not decay, It is your sword, it's your deploy. So hide it in your heart to stay, Where storms of life can not destroy. Not on my knee, but I still pray. For God to keep you from decoy. Keep walking in the narrow way, With God your Father, your His boy. Love, Mom
