July- Love For God's Word

Dear Parents,
This month we look at many promises that that the Bible gives us. The Bible is truely our road map and encyclepida for our Christian walks. It tells us how we are to treat others, it tells us how to speak, it tells us who we should be in relationships with. It has the answers for everything that we may ever need to know. I have to admit that I have not been a Bible reader over the years as I should. I do know that with every problem or situation that I or my family face I'm drawn back to a scripture that gives me understanding, wisdom, or direction.

My most favorite Bible Verse is Psalms 32:8. "I will instruct you in which way you should go. I will teach you with my own eye." I was lead to this verse while in high school wanting to go to college and not sure what to do or even how to get there. Being raised in a single parent family didn't offer too many fincial perks but mostly worry and doing without. But I knew that God was calling me into being a physcial therapist assistant. I stood on this promise that He would lead me and watch over me. And I can honestly say 22 years later I'm in the right career for me. My college was not only paid for but I had a gaureented job waiting me when I graduated.

I desire for God to give my girls the same promises and assurances that He'll open doors for them in order for their calling to be completed.

Lets jump into the Word!
