Promise of God Coloring Page Sometimes it’s easier to believe in God’s power on a grand scale- creating the universe, sustaining it through all time, reigning over centuries- than to believe one simple promise. Ann Spangler- Praying the Names of God Believe. God holds you in His righteous right hand.He will NEVER leave you.He will take great delight in you.He will quiet you with His LOVE. BELIEVE A free reminder. When our son struggled with great pain this past week and all we could do was give him medicine, pray, and wait… my heart was troubled. I needed to focus on God’s promises, but all I could hear and see was my son in pain. So I pressed in to the promise in Zephaniah 3:17 Reading the promisedrawing the promisecoloring the same promise The quiet, still, repetitive motion as I meditated on God’s ability to QUIET our son cause my heart to fill with peace. Do you need that too? I bet you know a gal who does. I’m sharing my drawing/prayer for free in hope that the Lord will use it to calm your heart as well.

My personal statement of faith: I believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. I believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. I believe “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” and that we are saved by faith in Jesus. Some of my favorite Bible teachers are my husband (Craig Sayler), Pastor Jon Courson, Pastor Chuck Smith, and CH Spurgeon.

Lounge Wear Makes Life more Comfy It’s true. Clothes make the woman. COMFY Clothes make the woman happy. I like being comfy and cozy. I spend most of my time at home and I like to spend that time as comfortable as possible!! Aren’t you nicer when your clothes are comfy? Me too! WARNING: Make sure you do a weekly “Jean Check”. That’s right. Wearing yoga pants is super comfy, but it can also be a bit deceptive. Catch those extra few pounds before they get you by simply slipping into your favorite jeans once a week. If they zip up just fine, slip back into your yoga pants. If they’re “snugglier” than before… Wear them for the next few days!

Parenting in Times of Crisis turned into MAGICAL Memories When I was about 11-years old I had the BEST summer ever. Family wildflower walks every evening after dinner.Family wifle ball games.Family soccer games. (got a basement?) We lived on a 15 acre farm in Connecticut and my dad spent the summer carving out adventures for us with his ride-on tractor. ⚽️First he cut the soccer field. ⚾️Then he lowered the mover and cut a baseball diamond into the same field. 💐He carved a 6-foot wide path around a huge field on our property so he could take us on a walk to see “which wild flowers bloomed” that day. 🌼We played🌱Caught dragon flies🌱Watch clouds float by👀Sat in the yard playing I-spy🎼Turned off all the lights in the house and blared the music while playing “who knows the most lyrics to each song” We fed wild birds, watched the squirrels steal their food and simply enjoyed each other’s company. 🐾What a great summer! It wasn’t until I was a grown woman that I learned the truth. 😳Dad had been laid off that summer. While he applied for over 150 jobs looking for work at night, during the day he created, played, and was present with all four of us kids. Today, we have a choice. I say, let’s make this season of quarantine the “BEST Spring vacation of our kids’ childhood.” 🌸Be present🌷Read🌱Cut soccer fields out with a lawn mower⚽️Play games And at night, when the kids are nestled in bed make our plan for the next day. I found the EXACT 200+ year old house I lived in at the time.Yes, I had a heart attack too. It was not fully restored when I lived in it. It was NOT this beautiful when I lived there. But you get a rare opportunity to see where my DREAM summer was lived out.Page 27. That yellow room is where I heard my sisters snore like tigers.Page 28 was a closet PACKED with boxes and clothing and didn’t have a window.Page 31 was the scary attic in our garage where my parents hid Christmas presentsPage 34 is the window I witnesses the greatest ice storm I’ve ever seen. I sat on the sofa and peeked out.Page 38 shows you why I remember spending a HUGE portion of time doing yard work with my dad. But the magical field?Page 32. Walk to the right of the garage and hang a right after that clump of trees… I spent hours and hours and hours there with my family, led by my father… When I lived here, all the walls were white. There wasn’t any fancy decor. We had 13 cats, no heat in my room (you could see your breath) What’s your favorite memory from your childhood?

Advent Traditions that Make Your Heart Skip a beat Your kids see the calendar flip to November and suddenly they are ready for the holidays, right? It’s the same in my house. We all love this time of year as we prepare to bundle up, snuggle in and celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior. Every family, every home, every heart can prepare Him room; but some of us are lacking creativity. While we don’t need to be Pinterest perfect to celebrate the birth of our Lord, we can add a handful of traditions into our lives and show our children how to embrace this season with the same enthusiasm as a homeschool mom embraces that first cup of coffee. Good News! I’ve scoured the internet to bring you fun, creative, and wonderful ideas to help you celebrate Advent this year. Be sure to bookmark this for later. And take it slow. It really only takes 1-3 activities to help your holidays stand out as you celebrate JESUS! 7 Wonderful Ways to Celebrate Advent Together 1. DIY Advent calendar Advent calendars are special delight for kids. They are meant to celebrate each day in a small way as we count down the days to Christmas. They can be as simple as printing a calendar and adding designs each day: Printable DIY Advent Calendar Or making a Paper Countdown Chain, like like this one from Jim Elzerman. Names of God Advent Chain DIY Advent Bags are fun too! Just gather 24 bags and fill them with little treats to be opened each day. Advent Bags Yes, it’s also ok to buy a keepsake Advent calendar too. My favorite advent calendar I know. It’s not a nativity, it has a little santa, and there are no wise men or donkeys. I love it anyway. 2. Advent Music Introduce a new Christmas song every day of Advent! This is the EASIEST tradition to start this year! You can create your own playlist, print out the words, dig in tot he history behind the lyrics, or just listen.

Learn biblical history and geography as you play Portals and Prophets. No biblical knowledge required, so you can play with your entire family whether they know the Bible yet, or not! 7. Advent Books The day after Christmas, I bring out wrapping paper and gift wrap my favorite Christmas Picture books for the following year. Then, those books get packed away until the following Advent Season. I am one of those people who decorates for Christmas BEFORE Thanksgiving, and my kids LOVE seeing those books get nestled under the tree. Each day, a child gets to pick a book to be unwrapped and enjoyed together. It’s one of our FAVORITE traditions! I love picture books in general, but there’s something magical about a Christmas story, a child in footed pajamas and a mug of something warm and wonderful. 6 last Minute Advent Ideas Yes, it’s time to plan for advent season. With a few supplies, some paper and ink, and a few ideas, your family will delight together as you add new Advent traditions into your home.

My favorite Bible teachers are my husband (Craig Sayler), Pastor Jon Courson, Pastor Chuck Smith, CH Spurgeon. Bekki Sayler is the creator of A Better Way to Homeschool, author of Homeschooling From the Inside Out, and homeschooling mom of five rambunctious sons. Yep. She says it’s as crazy as it sounds! Bekki is most thankful for the love and support of her husband of almost 30 years. When she’s not dodging nerf bullets or stepping over piles of Legos, she creates classes, printables, books, and resources to encourage Christian homeschool moms to trust the Lord in their journey. Her heart’s passion is to share the truth that it is possible to educate your kids using God’s word as a guide while focusing on the holy trinity of homeschooling: heart, attitude, and character.
