Only three days into homeschooling two 7th graders and 3 Kindergarteners, I'am exhausted by 7pm completely drained and ready for bed. But the night is young and I need to catch up with Milton's day and watch some TV together. And actually have an uninterrupted adult conversation. The morning alarm is usually the sound of children running up and down the stairs and yelling out for each other. There's no time for waking up stretching and having a nice hot cup of coffee in a quiet corner, its time to hit the floor running.
A few days ago I had mentioned to Milton and my sister Andrea that I was SCARED for Monday to start, cause I didn't know what I was getting into. But, even in that I knew it was going to be ok and I couldn't quit before starting. God had defiantly told us this was what He wanted us to do for this season in our lives. So here we go.
Today as we had our worship music playing and I was doing dishes in between teaching, the girls worked on school. Ezekiel was doing a puzzled and kept stoping and asking questions. Does God only live in your heart or in heaven too? Is he is the sun? What does His real skin look like? Is He a cloud? As the questions kept coming I would have answers like..."He lives in heaven and one day when you are ready you can ask Him to come in your heart forever. You can't see Him but He's everywhere and He lives past the sun, the clouds, the stars and here with us. One day you can ask him in your heart."
As I'am trying to get ahead on house work the questions keep coming and the HOLY SPIRIT stops me and reminds me. ''This is why you're staying home with them, if he's asking you these questions he is ready he understand the message of the cross and whats to take the step into salvation"
I called for Ezekiel and asked him to tell me everything he had asked me earlier. After he did, right there in a sink full of soapy dishes and a soaked Momma 6 days before tuning 6 my EZEKIEL JIREH asked Jesus into his heart to be his Lord and Savior. My heart is full of joy and excitement, I didn't remember that we started the morning with a rush or that I've had restless nights and that sometimes I feel overwhelmed I just know that I was there with my baby when he made the most beautiful declaration of faith. These are the moments that make everything worth it!
Tonight we will celebrate with cake and ice-cream along with the angels !!!!!!
Luke 15:10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
