I could talk at length about George Whitefield. My children are probably a little tired of hearing about the amazing man so used in what we think of as The Great Awakening. Today in church I was moved more than usual when we sung one of Charles Wesley's hymns. Envisioning those great, brave men, who strove so hard to share the forgiveness we can have in Jesus Christ singing the same hymn over 200 years ago, was powerful. I love knowing more about this period in our world history. More than that though, I love the reality that we can be made new in Jesus Christ. Behold, old things have passed away, all things are become new.
We live in a world that says we start out a certain way and that is just how we are. Some forms of criminals are hailed as people who will 'never change' for example.
I squint in disbelief when I hear so-called Christians speak that way. I am saddened when I see those lost, separated from the love of God, speak that way.
Do we limit God? Do we limit the awe inspiring power of the Holy Spirit of the one Almighty Creator of all we see and don't see? Are we so alone we do not realize there is a God who loves us and who is eager to be in fellowship with us, if we will but repent and believe that He is there to heal the sick and bind the broken-hearted? Is our way working so well we don't need God? Are we so happy with the way our plan is going that we won't even give the Bible and its loving-kindness a try?
There is One who has the power to not only raise the dead, heal the sick, bring righteous vengeance on those who deserve it, but who also forgives sin--the sin each of us is born with and the sin each of us chooses to do. If we will but humble ourselves before the mighty hand of God, who is a God of love and justice, and admit we have fallen short as He says we all have, we can be born anew. There is a real power in God's Holy Spirit, and if we seek Him, we shall find Him. We must be ready to die to ourselves though. Die to our sin and put on His righteousness, which He will help us do. Jesus Christ bridged the gap between us and God, taking the penalty of our sin upon Himself, once and FOR ALL.
We do not need to be slaves to sin, driven and tossed by the wind. We can experience and live Psalm 46:10--
Be still and know that I am God.
This is true freedom. To be free to worship and serve the true God, in wholeness.

Grandma's Wisdom
I was blessed today to have a talk with a friend's mother. She was watching her grandson who has been terribly indulged in his three years of life, and it was mealtime. Not wanting what he'd been given and fussing about it, she wisely made him sit at the table until he ate what she prepared. Crying and other manipulative gestures left her unmoved; her love for him dictated her actions to make him do what was right.
Children can and should be taught to appreciate what is given them as soon as the breast or bottle is not the primary source of food, which for most babies is around 6 months of age. It takes consistent, purposeful training to have this skill effectively learned...years of consistency. Parents today must understand that children are taught NOT to be grateful when they are permitted to refuse good food offered. Only in a nation as wealthy as the United States does this even require saying. It really is a disgrace on us as a culture that we actually raise children to shun fresh, healthy food. Truly, we are fools thinking we are somehow in the wrong to make them sit and eat what they are served when children all over the world are starving. Telling children to be grateful does not make it thus. Hunger before mealtime has always been understood as the means of then EATING what you are given. That satisfaction of hunger diminishing helps gratitude get cultivated. How blessed we are to be able to assuage that feeling whenever we want in our kids, but we must allow the hunger to come if they are to eat what they need for optimum body and brain development. Kids can not snack all day long. Snacks lack the nutritive content a growing child requires, and the child never feels really hungry so they eat as much as they need to in order to sleep all night and/or grow well.
Every action we do as parents is teaching our children something positive or something negative. We live in a day where many parents act like the babysitter, and so the poor child is left untrained and thus becomes a very unpleasant individual to be around.
What a joy it was to my heart to hear of one who remembers that there are times in raising children that require us to love enough to do what is best for them! Do we not want our children and our parenting to serve as a means of bringing glory to the Lord?

Annual Question
Son: "Mom, why do they call it Black Friday?"
Mom: "Um, I don't know. Maybe because shopping is dark."
Smirk.
I plan to die having never participated in going out for Black Friday shopping. It will be a badge of honor, in this case pronounced with a strong 'H' and a bit of an accent.

Peace From Above
Recently I was speaking to a mature Christian woman about a situation, and she did not say one way or the other what she thought, but left me with a piece of advice that when she is unsure about something, she doesn't do it. She also reminded me that it is clear when God answers.
The nature of this issue couldn't be left to unknowns, so my husband and I worked through it in detail. It is amazing that even when no one you know agrees with you, when God leads, you can have peace. And we do.
I am seeing that the most important thing we can teach our children as Christians is to live to please God while striving to keep peace with those around us as much as possible. We live in a world of compromise and human wisdom. A world that doesn't want to offend other people, even if it means offending God. As things get more wicked, however, our kids need to see us stand strong for the truth. We can pretend that going along to get along will woo people to Christ, but it doesn't. The world needs something very different from what it already has. Sometimes our own conscious needs to reign and protecting our kids' conscious needs to be of great importance. Often we focus so much on the lost around us that we make poor decisions when it comes to our own family. It is a difficult dance to perform.
If done thoughtfully and with love, it is not wrong to make decisions that hurt people, especially when it means pleasing the Lord. How can we, as representatives of Christ, sit quietly by in support during an event that pointedly blasphemes Christ, the Holy Spirit, and lies about how we are reconciled to God? It is one thing when you go in to a situation unaware of exactly what takes place; it is entirely different when you know. When something makes you sick to think about, take time to wait on the Lord, and be careful who you ask advice from.
One of the best aspects of aging is getting to a point of not trying to convince those around you of how you are living your life for Christ. I look forward to fully getting to that place. It is getting better all the time, but I know it will get even easier.
Be convinced in your own mind and act, taking time to explain to your children because the days are evil.

Foolproof Turkey Gravy
Foolproof Turkey Gravy.
Just a little tip from Betty Crocker!
Are you cooking this year? I am and am looking forward to it. It's a great way to teach the girls how to prepare a big dinner, and it is really great to not have to go anywhere or clean the house for 'company'. Sure, I'm recovering from surgery, but the perks are still there!
***the way I did my gravy, and always do: Melt some butter in the pan, add in flour and mix up well with a flat whisk so it is little clumps all over the bottom of the pan. This will do the thickening in a minute. Pour in liquid (stock) and stir rapidly. Add in a little milk. Keep stirring as thickens up. Season if stock already wasn't. If at the end of this you want it thicker, mix a little cornstarch with a cool liquid till smooth and gradually pour in as you stir. Go slow.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Order
A well-ordered home isn't a thing of the past or a novel concept, nor is it one option among other good options. It is a solid standard that not only reflects the character of God, but it provides an ideal environment for children to grow. A mother should surely be able to manage a home and several small children. If she can't, then the parenting ideals need evaluating.
Too often parents today let the child dictate the way the home is run. This leads to chaos, tired children who don't grow and thrive as they could, and parents who are not in control. It often impacts a family's nutrition as well because for some reason, a mother who takes the time to prepare nutritious food and serve it at a table every night is usually the same type who loves her family enough to manage it. It isn't a matter of needing more hands on deck. It is a matter of understanding the duties of a parent and taking charge of that, learning to find joy in doing the work God has set before you.

A New Season-Crossing Over
Milestones are those monumental events you can envision when you are much younger than the age at which you'll actually experience said events.
Turning 16, 21, marriage, first babies, certain career goals, driving, first house buying.... (hopefully not in this order!)
As we age, however, there are milestones that come in to the picture which we never may have envisioned, at least not in the way it ends up happening.
I'm about to close a door to a part of life that I never would have anticipated.
A milestone.
An ending.
When one thing ends though, something else begins. A new season.
A new reality.
When Christ died, it was an ending. His earthly life. Our sin debt. It could have looked bleak. It did for those who didn't and don't understand, but the new reality was and is beyond words.
It is too easy to hold on to the old times, the goodbyes, and the way it was. Those things are in the past, and what lies before is where the action is. The joy, the new birth, the life.
Forty has been full of newness here. Full of change. I'm trying to be excited about it all, but peering over the fence to a chapter closing, it is a little sad.

I couldn't love their coop design any more than I do. It covers all the important areas of coop-dom! If we ever build a new one, this is what I'd love to do, having it open to a larger fenced run like we have now. Great job to these folks!

Perfect Sister | Confessions of a Pioneer Woman | Ree Drummond
Perfect Sister | Confessions of a Pioneer Woman | Ree Drummond.
I am sitting here, late, thinking about my sisters, who I got to see or talk to at great length today. Oh, how I adore them!
I don't post pictures, but if I did, it would be such fun to share something like this post by The Pioneer Woman (whose sister is my age!). I'll just have to share Ree's sentiment.
A sister is one of the greatest gifts God can give a girl. I'm doubly blessed and wouldn't have it any other way. My sisters and I have grown in to different women with different families, but we share so much that is the same. We treat other people in a similar fashion and we care in similar ways; we turn things over in our minds in a similar way and we communicate similarly.
I cannot imagine my life without them. That about says it all and sums up one way a sister relationship is so special.

Looking Ahead
I was thinking recently about how where we live when our kids reach the age of college and marrying will impact the rest of our holidays. I'm not sure why this occurred to me this year, but it is a thing to think about if you happen to be able to relocate at some point during your children's lives.
Think of this-kids grow up and get married. If their spouse's family lives in-town close to where you live, great, everyone will stay in that town and get to see everyone on holidays. Your kids will see their in-laws and you. If one of your children marries someone with an out-of-town family, they may alternate the years they see each side or the holiday they see each side. This will mean staying put at home so the kids can come to you. With multiple children, the odds of having some always available to come home and some not available, is higher. Even if the parent's generation can go see their siblings on holidays, it is unlikely all of the younger generation will be able to when they are married because they'll have each group of parents to see.
God has put my family several hours from both sides of our extended family, and so this is all very relevant to what my future likely holds. I see now why my friend's mom was saying that it was only recently she got to see her sisters again on Christmas. Everyone was busy with their own grown kids and their families, and it just isn't possible to get everyone together. As I think about other older people I know who live in another state from their siblings, they never see their extended families on holidays. Their kids see the in-laws first, then they head to their house later in the day.
It is a good reminder to be thankful for these years where we can all be together. It is a sober reminder to think hard on where you want to live as you raise your kids--nearby family or farther away? Sometimes we can't choose this so we have to trust God with it.
We worked to get as close as we could to our family 9 years ago, but as I think on these later dynamics, it will possibly not be close enough to all be involved with the extended family once my kids are married.

Biographies of Great Men
Does your faith need bolstering? Are you caught up in the unimportant events of this age? I've watched someone I love grow mightily in the Lord, and have noticed what he reads. Biographies of great men: D. Martyn-Lloyd Jones, George Whitefield, Jonathan Edwards...
I'm currently reading George Whitefield's biography and look forward to it daily. It fills the soul and inspires me to not only cherish the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ, but to delve in to the Word of God more fervently.
We can learn much from studying men who gave their all for the Gospel! Unlike when we're done watching TV, our spirits will be encouraged and lasting growth will have occurred.

Dying to Self
Loving the church, the true church founded by Jesus Christ, means putting the Gospel and furthering it above all else. It doesn't matter if we don't like someone in our circle of influence. It doesn't matter if people think they are our friends but we really don't feel that way. It matters not if we are wronged or falsely accused.
Anyone who tries to teach the truth of God's word will be falsely accused or wrongly interpreted.
Anyone who deals with other people, ever, will be wronged.
Sometimes we need to step back and evaluate just what our role is in a relationship or situation. It hurts when we realize that changes need to be made. It's often disappointing.
A comforting thought is that it is never wrong to love others and try to point them to the one true God. We do not need to be friends with people on our end, but we can be their friend.
Realistic expectations are essential to any relationship. (thanks, kc)
To God be the Glory.
Happy Election Day!

Want to Be A Better Cook?
I'm sure many of us ladies wish we were better cooks. Sure, there may be a few things we know we do really well. Maybe more than a few. But there is a sure-fire way to get better at cooking on a regular basis, and it is to actually cook more. This requires eating out less.
I think many of us can slip in to saving our 'special meals' for times when someone else is doing the cooking, and we'll pay top dollar for it even. We can shy away from cooking things that we really love if it is easier to buy it out, but seldom does any food bought 'out' taste better than a carefully prepared meal at home.
It is also true that you will lose weight if you stop eating out, even if you make great food at home. Of course, portion control does have to come in to play, but being able to control the fat and salt makes a big difference in calories. It is also better to have less preservatives and fresher food, which eating 'in' affords.
It is very easy to turn to carry out or prepared items at the end of a busy school day, but you will feel so much better if you don't allow yourself the easy out.
Something we have done, which is making each week start off more pleasurable, is to have a very nice dinner PLUS dessert on Monday evenings. There is an inherent feeling of reward, and I feel good making something everyone will love. The dessert part has been divine. It is radically new for me to make a dessert weekly, let alone the same night each week. (not that we are confined to only that one night each week) :)
Some special dinner ideas:
mini cheddar meatloaves, buttered corn, homemade bread, mashed potatoes
cajun pot roast with onions, mashed potatoes, homemade buttermilk biscuits, fresh honey glazed carrots
roast chicken, roasted potatoes, green bean casserole, homemade rolls
Dessert ideas:
homemade tapioca pudding with whipped cream
bread pudding with strudel topping
banana/zucchini/apple bread
orange scones and cinnamon apple scones
I've found the less running around I do during the week, the more I feel like cooking. It is also easier to keep up with the details of the household. This is the best year I've had with knowing what is going on with my children's schooling. Yes, I have always homeschooled, but details like when the National Classical Latin Etymology Exam study session is usually have escaped me. I simply couldn't keep up with when it was, nor remember to have my student sit in on the class. Not so this year! She attended the session!!! I feel like such a winner.
We continue to learn the CC materials and are doing a memory master that doesn't wait until the end of the year. We've been through that 11 times and while it is very beneficial to push a student to accomplish something along that line, it requires too much valuable school time to achieve. The most important thing is that they know the material and know how to memorize. The content does matter IMO. Why waste good memorizing power on just anything?
But I digress.
I hope this helps some of you with your home making!
God bless,
Ann

What Caused the Reformation? | Worldview Weekend
An article worth adding to your remembrance of Reformation Day.
What Caused the Reformation? | Worldview Weekend.
This movie is also well done as a portrayal of Martin Luther's life. It can be watched via Amazon instant video for $2.99.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002JAHW8M/ref=pe_385040_118058080_TE_M1T1DP
To involve the kids, how about have them pick a person who was key to the Reformation and do a presentation on them?
