Quote of the Day

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear-not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave.

FUN HOMESCHOOLING...

One of my favorite things to do with the kids is a "Bible Journal". The kids and I will read a story in the bible and then each of them will draw a picture of what we read in their own journal, which is usually a spiral or composition notebook. Sometimes I make suggestions, but they mostly do their own work, especially now that they are older.

Isaiah 54:13 - All your children shall be taught by the Lord, And great shall be the peace of your children. (NKJ)

Proverbs 22:6 - Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. (NKJ)

Psalm 78:4 - We will not hide them from their children, Telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, And His strength and His wonderful works that He has done. (NKJ)

Hebrews 12:9 - Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live? (NKJ)

1 Timothy 3:4 - ... one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence ... (NKJ)

Ephesians 6:4 - And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord. (NKJ)

Proverbs 3:1 - My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands. (NKJ)

Deuteronomy 6:6-7 - And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. (NKJ)

Proverbs 1:8 - My son, hear the instruction of your father, and do not forsake the law of your mother. (NKJ)

Proverbs 13:20 - He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will be destroyed. (NKJ)

Joel 1:3 - Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation. (NIV)

Other Verses to Consider:

Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, He shall direct your paths. (NKJ)

Matthew 7:7-11 - Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him! (NKJV)

Jeremiah 29:11-14 - "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the Lord, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the Lord, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile." (NIV)

Jeremiah 33:2,3 - This is what the Lord says, he who made the earth, the Lord who formed it and established it-the Lord is his name: "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." (NIV)

Acts 17:26-28 - And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring.' (NKJ)
