This is my first blog, Ever! So here it goes!
I have always tried to teach my children to live by the fruit of the Spirit. Galations 5:22-23, But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfullness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
It is my hearts desire to rasie children into loving, caring, patient, compassionante Godly adults. In today's society it isn't easy by any means! And I will be honest and admit even I fall short of this feat frequently.
As I write this first blog, our oldest son Matthew has shown love for his family by allowing me to sleep in, changed and fed Sarah. And then cooked breakfast for himself and Ella. I'm not sure if he has a motive behind all this, but I am choosing to believe he is moved by the Holy Spirit! My children often find ways to love one another. However it has been less lately as Matt and Ella are getting older. My heart is so blessed by these four little people that God has loaned us! I can't imagine my life any other way!
So, next time you eat a piece of fruit, think about it...are you just eating it? Or are you living it?
