Prayer! Plus free printable

 Prayer. I wish I could say I was a mighty prayer warrior but the truth is no matter now much I pray at times, it never seems to be enough. All around us we hear of hurting people. With social media now a days we hear of all kinds of things. But what do we do with that information? Worry? Gossip? Become anxious? I say we do something else.

I'm Confused! Sunday School Lesson Help (Free Printable)

Am I the only one that gets confused at times studying the Sunday School lesson? I hope not. At my church we are going through the whole Bible in chronological order by using The Story curriculum that was put together by Max Lucado and Randy Frazee. This week we are on chapter 14: A Kingdom Torn in Two. I really love us doing this as a class and we have had such wonderful discussion every week about it. This week however I am teaching the lesson and being the teacher, it is not good that I was confused. Here is how I got "unstuck". I got out a piece of paper and started taking notes, drawing lines and well, it was a mess. This helped me so it had to help my Sunday school class too. But they can't read this mess. So I created a solution!

Will 2015 Be Any Different?

Every year we go through the New Year's Resolutions spill. Quite frankly I never got that serious about making resolutions. I mean after all, as a mom your kids make your resolutions for you, right? Yeah sure there was the fleeting thought, Hey I would like to do that next year, but the thought usually flew out of my mind as quickly as it entered. (Maybe that is from being a mommy too, some-timers as I call it. Sometimes my mind works, sometimes it doesn't. Who knows.) Well not this year! 2015 will not be a year that I throw away! Here is my plan for attempting to make the best of this year.

New Year's Resolution: Pay Attention in Church- Free Printable

A new year always brings with it new year's resolutions. What better resolution than to spend more time with the person who means the most to you. No not a girlfriend, boyfriend, mom, dad, or spouse. Some one more important: God. Today I have some (more specifically four!) free printables for you to print and give to your child to help them learn to pay attention in church. Instead of doodling super heroes, dolls or who knows what else, these printables will encourage them to doodle about the message. And hopefully they will be learning important information along the way.

It's All About Balance (Free Goal Sheet)

Have to get dressed.
Make the bed.
Make Breakfast.
Dress the kids.
Start the Laundry.
Empty the dishwasher.
Mail the bills.
Call the doctor.
Go to the bank. And this is just for the morning agenda!!!! We have so many things coming at us in life that we can get caught up spending our time in only one area. Truth is most of us have many different places, people or causes that call for our attention. It is easy to get so wrapped up in what we are doing right now, that we forget about the other areas that we are committed to as well. I found a way to focus on it all. It's all about balance!
