For those of you who homeschool, have you ever wondered if or worried about being competent for this job? Or if you don't homeschool, have you thought about it but worried that you wouldn't be competent for the job?
RC Sproul Jr. has a quick and easy test for you. It goes like this:
"...wait until it is late at night. Then, very quietly, go from room to room in your house. Peek in carefully, and see if you find any sleeping children. Then be sure that these are your own children. If there are wee ones in your home during the wee hours, and if they belong to you, you are competent to homeschool. The true Expert on education is the very One who gave you these children."

INVESTMENTS
The value of anything is the price it pays in eternity.
Here is where my primary investments need to be...
1. Helping and meeting the needs of my husband
2. Training my children in righteousness,
then all the other stuff (homeschool, housework, to-do lists, etc.) will be what fills in my extra time.
I won't be upset when those things are interrupted by my husband's needs or the need to train my children because the "other stuff" is actually the interruption to my primary job.

This is hilariously perfect! I LOVE IT!
I just laughed out loud - thanks for posting. You have been a great homeschooling encourager!!
Thanks Jenny!!
I read this today and was encouraged too...
"Our ministry is learning to take immense pleasure in being with our children, laughing, working, talking, praying, learning and playing—no matter how old or young they are. The other stuff of life doesn’t matter nearly as much—others are out there doing those things."
No one else named “Mom” lives in our homes and holds our children’s hearts and lives like we do. Let’s not miss our greatest ministry!
