First, we know that Jesus is Yaweh! Can you rejoice at this fact! 1 John 5:1 you are born again! Jesus has revealed Himself to you. All the fulness of the Godhead dwells in Jesus bodily. You called on Him for salvation. Hallelujah! The scripture can't be broken, God is faithful and Holy, and He can never lie.

"Romans 10:13 Meaning and Commentary
For whosoever shall call upon the name the Lord
This testimony is taken out of ( Joel 2:32 ) and is brought to prove the truth of what the apostle had just suggested, that all that call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, will find him rich and plenteous in mercy, and ready to dispense his grace and salvation to them: such
shall be saved;
be they who they will, whether Jews or Gentiles; not with a temporal salvation only, but with a spiritual and eternal one; for the words of the prophet refer to Gospel times, as the context shows, and is cited and applied thereunto by the Apostle Peter, ( Acts 2:16-21 ) ; besides, the deliverance and salvation Joel speaks of, is of a "remnant whom the Lord shall call", ( Joel 2:32 ) ; and designs the remnant according to the election of grace, whether among Jews or Gentiles, whom God calls by his efficacious grace; between which call and eternal glory, there is a certain and inseparable connection."

Winter is coming quickly. Autumns chill is beginning to form into ice and a new season. I can't wait for hot chocolate, gifts, great food, and celebrating our Savior!
I took some of the girls to the Glenwood Hot Springs and we swam yesterday. It was so fun. We are also busy with school, Bible study, and garden planning for Spring. I am preparing everything for official kindergarten. Our little one turns 5 early, but we will start. I decided on Math U See Primer with Manipulatives, 1st Grade Abeka Handwriting Mansuscript with Phonics, and Rod and Staff Bible and Nuture Reader Series Level I Units 1,2 with the Reader, Reader Workbooks, and Phonics Workbook. This covers Bible.
We will also order the Christian Light Summer Bible School K workbook. This is all detailed in another post, but the bulk of our work. I also have some vintage readers to order on Ebay for beginning reading. The vintage beginning reading Dr. Suess books are excellent. I learned to read from these as a child. (I plan on homeschooling my 3 fully). Even my 7th grader. I plan on trying Veritas Press live classes next year in preperation for High School at home. My other two who go to a Christian High School love their school and the academics are rigorous. We can't believe our son has one more year left after this year! Then pray we find a D2 or D3 Christian college where he gets accepted to play football. Quarterback is his goal, but running back if necessary. I am looking in many states. My favorite states that I want to visit more and vacation in are TN, PA, NC. Ultimately, he loves the ocean too, so we will see. He is gifted at worship and drumming, so I want him to find a good church wherever he goes. I've heard its so fun to visit and vacation to see your grown up children!
Our dogs are great and we ordered our Chihuaha his yearly sweater. It's cold here brrrr.
Life on the homefront is great. I plan on learning how to juice grapes with a new steamer they came out with (it has a hose attachment from the pot that you drain the hot grape juice into with mason jars) eventually. You can also make apple juice and other juices on the oven! I saw this on one of my favorite shows on Youtube, Megan Fox Unlocked.
I plan to garden and grow food one day. Again, raw milk is our new venture with homesteading. You can homestead even with an apartment or condo, or backyard! Use anything you can. Can food, Make juices, join farming co-ops, grow herbs indoors, have a small garden, have some chickens if you can or want too, make things, craft, etc. Whatever you have on top of your daily schedule and life commitments, use the mentality of homemaking and homesteading as a woman. It is a gift from God to love your home and enjoy the people in it, making it beautiful.
To that end, I searched for Christian homemaking books on Ebay. Some of these are vintage. We have a true need for the Titus 2 Mandate and God's best for women to be preached again today and for women to not feel lesser than if they choose to stay home.
Also, for working women to make their home a haven around supporting their families if need be.
My husband never wants to leave our home and the kids and I. I laughed to myself; I succeeded. Somehow imperfect as I am, the quote is true. My man doesn't want to leave. He loves his home. He is comfortable at home. I'm continually growing and striving to make our home life better.
And, travel together!
Much love and grace and peace.
