Proverbs
22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not
depart from it
Today
I am thankful that God called me to home-school. I will admit that I had no
idea what I was getting myself into when I decided to be obedient to God’s
calling me to teach my children. I will admit that on many days I have failed
but on many days we have succeeded beyond what I thought was possible.
Home-schooling
is intended to educate my children in the best way possible; yet, it is so much
more. Through this endeavor I have grown so much. I have seen how God has
changed me through it. I have become more disciplined and way more dependent on
Him to help me. I have become much less selfish in my time (not that I don’t
still have a lot to work on in that area!) We still have many more years left
of home-school, and part of me is excited about that and part of me knows it’s
going to be a whole lot of work but I wouldn’t change a minute of it. I know
that if I had to send my children to public school I would be devastated. Home-
schooling my children and seeing them learn as been then greatest
accomplishment of my life and if I never do anything greater I am so OK with
that.
