@ineedanothernap 60 year old, master's degree educated SAHM mom here: I'll never regret being at home when my kids were young. We did without extras & had to be creative with what we had, but I would not change one thing about it, & neither would my adult kids. What a blessing you can do it!
Begin this year reminding yourself that
• when you are exhausted, God isn’t.
• when you are discouraged, God isn’t.
• when you are unfaithful, God isn’t.
• when you are weak, God isn’t.
We have hope and a future because God isn’t like us.

LINES TO GET BAPTIZED
These are pictures from the largest baptism in US history which happened yesterday at Pirates Cove in Southern California.
Thousands of people were baptized in a single day, and made a public declaration of their faith in Jesus, and followed in obedience to Jesus to be baptized in water.
The line to get baptized was a half mile long. People patiently waited for hours to publicly declare their faith in Jesus Christ.
This is an unprecedented move of God happening across the nation, and people are desperate for God to move in their lives and our world.
Why not ask God for a fresh start in 2023? Ask Him to restore your soul and give you a fresh burden for the new year. Ask Him to make up for what’s been lost.
So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten.
Joel 2:25
People really watched their neighbor lose their business of 30 years, their grandma die alone in a nursing home, their cousin die of a fentanyl overdose, their friend’s son get murdered downtown, & their aunt take a second job to pay for gas and said, “yes, I’ll have some more”
Find out... what your sphere is and occupy it. Ask God to tell you what is your niche, and stand in it, occupying the place till Jesus Christ shall come and give you your reward. Use what ability you have, and use it at once.
A lot of people aren’t opening their Bibles today. Instead, we’re looking at things like social media. Every day, 66 percent of evangelical believers are looking at Facebook, 39 percent are looking at YouTube, and 32 percent are opening their Bibles.
@thelastlulu I grew up in Canby and graduated from CHS in 1982 (40 years ago). This is truth! We had clothing, fabric, shoe, department, drug, and hardware stores, and 2 grocery stores! Lots of restaurants, too. Not so today, but they do still have a movie theater that is awesome!
