Lies and Deceit
As the Good Morning Girls have been reading through the book of Genesis, there have been many things that have repeated themselves at different times and in different people’s lives. The same mistakes that were made by one person were often repeated again by someone else in the family. Yet, their stories are full of […]

Mother-Son Relationship: Daily Chat Time & Family Fun Friday Link Up
One of the greatest girls we can give our children is our full attention…when we’re really listening. As parents we don’t want our kids to keep secrets from us or to feel like they can’t tell us anything. Yet, do we really understand what we’re saying when we tell them not to hide things from […]
God’s Amazing Grace
This last week we’ve looked into the life of Abram, Sarai and Lot through chapters 12-18 of Genesis. It’s amazing to me that through it all that God’s amazing grace is so clearly evident in each of the different situations. Through deceit and lies, family fighting and more, we see God’s grace given time and […]
