My youngest daughter thought that I should begin a blog about our homeschool journey. I am inclined to agree. So much to praise God about!
Just last summer, I felt the Lord calling me back to homeschooling and took that leap of faith and began to teach my youngest two at home. Sounds simple right....well no, not really. You see, I work full time and also single parent, so I thought, really God, are you sure you mean me???
So, after all the nudging and affirmation, we lept in faith for the school year of 2011/2012. WOW! It has been a journey. The first thing we did, after getting curriculum, was name our school...well, as God does, He named it for us and showed us in ways we can understand so,we call it Inspired Through Faith Homeschool Academy, no other name would fit.
This has been a complete journey of faith for us for so many reasons. I have had to clear much of my plate to do this and begin saying no to so much serving at our church, really me, the "yes" girl. YES ME! So, as the months have passed, there have been ups and downs, crazy days, lazy days and AMEN days but, the most amazing part is that they have all been days that God has ordained for us. He loves us and wants the absolute best for my family. He wanted me to be mom and teacher above being the breadwinner and children's leader at church. I am walking in obedience and putting my family in the right place. Glory to God alone for this! I am in this for the long haul.
I raise my Ebenezer to my God and my Sustainer Who knows full well what we need for this journey. "Thus far He has helped me"
I am looking forward to sharing more as we go along. Fasten your seatbelts, this could be a bumpy ride!!
God Bless!!
