Trust

This morning I told Natalie to put a big pile of laundry in the basket then bring it into the laundry room.  Even though she’s done a similar job before, she said “that’s too hard.” I found myself saying “It won’t be too hard.  Momma never gives you jobs that are too hard for you.”

And WHAM.

It is even more so with our heavenly father.  Infinitely more than I know what Natalie is capable of, the Lord knows what we can do and doesn’t expect more than that.

Back in the spring I started thinking more about homeschooling Joanna.  And not just thinking about it, but actually wanting to do it.  I put up a wall and wouldn’t let myself go there though.  I thought, the year I have two newborns due is not the year to start homeschooling!  “La la la la la la la” hands over ears Lord.  But he kept insisting.  I kept reading things and feeling a teeny bit empowered.  I think the second trimester of pregnancy will do that to you.  :)

God knows what I will be capable of this year and has led me to a place where I’m starting to feel it too.

I’m going to homeschool Joanna for first grade.
