Pillows on the floor?

An altar of worship!
Yesterday the girls and I decided to kneel by the bed for our morning prayers.
We discussed the verse "Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord!"
We enjoyed a sweet time of prayer and talked about humbling ourselves before God. 
When they scurried up to their rooms I lingered by the bed looking at the precious knee prints in the pillows.  Some days being a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom seems too hard, it is hard and tiring and stressful and lonely at times...but I am so thankful God has called me to invest my life, time, love and energy in my sweet girls.  These moments will too soon be gone.
Thank you Father for the knee prints in the pillow reminder!

Lydia ~ my little fashion sense girl!

First and probably last season of soccer.
She enjoyed it but one day after running hard and sweating she asked her daddy

"can I just be a cheerleader?"

Poolside Dinner ~ a remarkable experience!

Really neat story about a CFA Operator who served in the military

and saved this man's life. His plane was shot down, he ejected and landed in enemy territory

in Afghanistan.  They met for the first time at seminar....years after the rescue!
Very moving story...one of many featured about the great operators within the organization.

 

Celebration with our founder Truett Cathy...

$4 billion...debt free company!

His words of encouragement to the operators...
always tithe...God takes care of those who put Him first.
