“I just made a decision this weekend. I can’t believe it but I know the Lord is in control. This school year the Lord has blessed me with the opportunity to homeschool my family. This has been a huge blessing for us.
After listening to EmmaSara’s teachings and taking her homeschool course I realize what my family was missing. It was learning “character”. So I have been making changes in my home to focus more on God than on education.
This past weekend I told my oldest son that he was taking a break from school work. He still has to do math though. However, for the next few months or however long it takes our focus will be on character building. Right now this is what I feel the Lord is leading me with him.
If you would have asked me this a week ago I would have thought it was a crazy idea. However, now more than ever I want my son (and family) to grow in Christ, to obey Him, to know His word, etc above academics.
I am learning to trust God with my children instead of following the crowd. Every single family is unique and has different needs.”
