Happy Independence Day!


Welcome! I am delighted that you dropped by! It is my prayer that you are blessed by what you see here... and hopefully challenged, too. I am 19 years old, and my parents homeschooled me. It was perhaps one of the best things they ever did for me apart from providing a loving home for me to be nurtured in. I feel blessed that they took the time to instill in me a love for God's Word and trained me to withstand the pressures of our culture.

Unlike what the world would have me think, I understand that my gifts are for Christ and His glory. The Bible says in Romans 12:1 that we should present our bodies as living sacrifices unto God, and I pray for the strength to do this every day. The second verse also stresses that we are not to be conformed to this world but transformed by the renewing of our minds.

Many people do not understand why I am not going to college. There was a time when I thought I might go, but God has not since shown it to be His will. I believe that the highest calling for any young lady is to eventually be a wife and mother, and I believe that the best place to prepare for this is in the home. I think, though, that you will find me to be nothing like a typical homebody. My interests are many and varying and often take me out of my home for lengthy periods of time, but home is where I always return.

Thank you for showing interest in my blog. I hope that you’ll return often and that the peace of God will touch your soul.
