Gratitude 23--The First Day of School
3:57 PM | Posted by

Today is our first offical day of school. While some folks dread school, we love it. Homeschooling is such a huge privilege, and we are so thankful.
1. The coming together place, a table large enough for the four of us...and others who come join us as well.
4. To do lists, so nothing gets forgotten.
7. Promises that are always yes and amen
8. Hope
9. The voice of the Lord speaking through pages of the Word
13. Treasure chests in the form of journals
16. Family together
17. Hard math becoming easier
18. Gliding rockers
19. Perfectly timed breaks
20. The words of release--"We're done."
21. Children's voices tripping over each other as they excitedly tell Daddy what they did and learned
22. The anticipation of tomorrow

Imagine being a parent barely able to pay bills and someone comes to your home and promises to educate your daughter and find her a job. You agree, hoping to give her a better life. Then she disappears, and you find out she is not being educated. Instead, she is a prostitute, a victim of human-trafficking, beaten and abused daily. Sounds like a nightmare, doesn't it? For 100,000 girls in India, this is reality. To find out how you can help, please visit Red Light Rescue.
