For the next two weeks, we are going to focus on a full chapter, rather than just one verse.  Psalms 112 is full of beautiful promises for us!  If a chapter is too much, pick a couple of verses (like verse 1 and 7).  We will focus on the first half of the chapter this [...]

This week we are focusing on a promise that makes all our time and effort as parents seem worth it.  We must have faith that the things we are teaching are somehow being absorbed and will be retrieved by our children on their life’s journey.  It is also a reminder that homeschooling is more than [...]

One thing I love about homeschooling is seeing my children grow and mature – watching the change and the “ah-ha” moments!  We are raising the next generation of adults.  Let’s challenge our children to become mature and choose to put off childish ways when it is time.  Also, let’s pray for them to have favor [...]

Children need to be reminded that they are created for a purpose.  Take some time this week to hug them and hold them close.  Be reminded that they are a gift from God! Confession: I’m a blessing and a reward from the Lord, a gift from God to my mom and dad. Psalm 127:3, NIV [...]

Do you children share their fears with you?  Fears that usually stem from bad dreams or seeing tragedy on TV?  They need to know that they are not doomed for tragedy, and they need words to speak when the thoughts arise in their minds.  This week’s verse and confession is powerful for not only our [...]

As we continue with Barbara Arbo’s True Confessions for Children, our verse focuses on the blessing of obedience: Confession: I obey my mommy and daddy for this is right, and will give me a long life. Ephesians 6:1, NIV Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Consider adding the next two [...]

We will veer away from the True Confessions for Children to focus on a verse about LOVE.  Yes, it is that time of year when we are reminded of the power of love, and we are so blessed to know Love personally! How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we [...]

As we go through Barbara Arbo’s True Confessions for Children, we are giving our children promises from God’s Word that they can hold onto as they journey through life.  For the next two weeks, we are going to focus on this confession: “Where I go the Word of God leads me, and keeps my feet [...]

We are taking our verses from a booklet by Barbara Arbo called True Confessions for Children.  This booklet is no longer in print, but we have gained permission to share this.  These “confessions” are statements of faith based on God’s Word.  This week’s “confession” is: My mommy rejoices that she ever bore me and my [...]
