My Goal As A Single Mom

When I suddenly became a single mother, I was violently thrown into A LOT of regrets.

my marriage

my behavior
my walk with my Lord and Savior
my parenting

I chose, when I came out of the fog I was in, to work on all of these.

• I decided that if and when I did get married again, I would be the wife God made me to be.  
• My behavior was that of someone who was NOT HAPPY, and was something that NEEDED to be changed.  
• My walk began again when I began going to church regularly and seeing that the only way I was going to have the life God wants me to have is to walk with Him each and every day.
• My biggest regret of all was my parenting of my 2 raving beauties.  My girls didn't know God.  They had been to church a few times, but I realized that they didn't KNOW Him.  I want them to grow up KNOWING how much He loves them and KNOW his word.  I wanted them to hear me pray as well as have them praying too. These are all things that should have been going on all along.  

I am bound and determined to train my children up "the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it." Proverbs 22:6.  Don't get me wrong, it is the hardest thing I have ever done.  I fall down daily.  The only way I get through it is with God by my side.

All that to say, that I got the girls their own bibles and they came in today.  They were both very excited!!! Here they are:

Rachel read and read. I pray that this to be her go to book!!!

Madi was "reading" too!!  LOL

Now my prayer is that these girls would find the love of Christ as comforting as I do!
