"Not that I have already obtained it or have already become
perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I
was laid hold of by Christ Jesus. Brethren, I do not regard myself as
having laid hold of it yet; but this one thing I do: forgetting what
lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward
the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:12-14 NIV
I am not nor do I pretend to be the perfect wife and homemaker. I think of my life as a journey and I am always striving to live in the present rather than the past or the future. It's a delicate balance to learn from the past yet look hopefully toward the future without being consumed by either. I started this endeavor as a result of my passionate, God given desire to encourage others in their role as managers of their homes and families. We are the mom's and dad's of many precious souls called to train them up in righteousness. Let us press on toward the goal as we encourage and pray for one another to walk humbly in peace and love!

I love thought provoking and inspirational quotes. I collect them and often try to come up with some of my own and this is one I say often to my children...and I'm sure someone has said this before and much better than I. "Being different makes a difference! Being normal makes you indifferent."
a few more quotes from a most inspirational man:
"If
I find myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy,
the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."
C.S. Lewis
"You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body." C.S. Lewis
