Thanks to the the Erber family and many others, we had a wonderful weekend, taking in sessions by Mr. Doug Phillips and Mr. Bill Potter, as well as enjoying the actual celebration of Liberty Day!

A Thought

Faith and Family Books | February 23, 2007

Ecclesiastes 7:14 – “In the day of prosperity, be joyful, but in the day of adversity, consider: surely God has appointed the one as well as the other…”
I’ve courage still
Through every ill;
For God is love
Who reigns above.
Let lightning flash
And thunder crash;
God’s creatures, they
Must him obey.
Thus, in the end
Each foe must bend,
And I’ll not fear
With God [...]

Book Review of The Three Weavers

Faith and Family Books | February 22, 2007

The tale, The Three Weavers by Annie Fellows Johnston, is for fathers and daughters. It would be perfect for those considering courtship instead of dating.

George Mueller was not always a man of great faith. As a matter of fact, he was a common thief before he became a born [...]

Catchy Attitude

Faith and Family Books | February 20, 2007

Have you ever wondered why the old saying, “If mama ain’t happy, then ain’t nobody happy!” is so true? Well, I have come to the conclusion that it is because our attitude – whether it is one of enthusiasm, joy,  cheerfulness or that of impatience, irritation or plain ol’ grumpy – is contagious. We would [...]

Watching You

Faith and Family Books | February 20, 2007

My husband came home this week with a new song. Now, do not be too shocked for conservatives such as we are. It is a song by Country and Western singer Rodney Atkins titled, “Watching You.” Robert said he was going to hit preset for Moody (WMBI-Chicago) and hit scan instead when he [...]

Relationships

Faith and Family Books | February 15, 2007

I have not been in the race of parenthood for as long as some, yet for others I am years ahead. The same goes for homeschooling. We began homeschooling when we made our decision to do so when our oldest was two months old. One thing that continues to come back to me is how [...]
