Livvy is officially at the age where we read with her from . It’s so important to set our kids up for success by getting out in front of the harms of p**n and teaching them how harmful it is from a biological standpoint. This book is so amazing for explaining it on a 9 year old’s level with no graphic details but focuses on the science of what goes on in their brain but more importantly - gives them an ACTION plan for what to do when they do see it. “Digital self-defense." When we were finished tonight she actually told me a few months ago while playing animal crossing on Nintendo, a “dream world” was shown to her with a naked statue (I’m assuming david) and how uncomfortable it made her feel. It was a great example to use as a model and why she didn’t want to tell me. Answer - embarrassment. She didn’t understand the yucky feeling it gave her and she wanted to hide it. Most common answer out there.

Caden squirmed his way through it when he was 9 and tonight had no desire to sit through it again, but patiently waited at her bedroom door to come in and quiz her after. He is such a protector of hers and my major rule follower - I know he’s going to be an advocate for her and always there to help her.

The average age a child is exposed to p**n is 10. Only 25% of kids will tell a parent or get help. You increase your chances 10 fold of having your child tell you or ask for help if you keep the lines of communication open and not end the talks after a one and done.

My 💔 has been so heavy & I feel so led to pray for strong biblical men to stand up & cover the gap for kids w/o fathers. Mental health in teens right now is at an all time low. Something shooters have had in common is no present father figure in their lives. We’ve lost the importance & desire for a strong family unit, especially a present, STRONG man at the forefront. God has a perfect design for us and we are seeing the ramifications of broken families, especially ones where a man isn’t stepping in to help kids grow. Psychologists, pediatricians and most importantly, the Bible, all agree that children NEED fathers (or father figures) in their lives for actual physical growth. There are so many amazing organizations for men to volunteer with and it’s so needed.

“Depictions of dads in popular culture push the stereotype of fathers as incompetent, emotionally disconnected, “secondary” parents who are not nearly as important to their children as their mothers. Fathers are often pressured to take a backseat when it comes to being involved with raising their kids and can face ridicule for things like admitting that they help change diapers or expressing an interest in taking paternity leave. In reality, although a mother’s love is important and special, having an active father figure plays an equally important role in the healthy development of a child.

Present dads Increase Intellect. An active father can help increase your child’s emotional intelligence and problem-solving capabilities. Studies show that children with fathers who were actively involved throughout the 1st year of their child’s life perform better on cognitive development assessments and demonstrate an increased capacity for curiosity and exploration. Children raised with active dads tend to score higher on verbal and math tests and are less likely to drop out of school or commit juvenile crimes. Children with supportive fathers are more likely to have high self-esteem and are generally happier and more confident. They also demonstrate a greater tolerance for stress/frustration, less hesitation/fear in new situations and an increased ability to resist peer pressure and stand up for themselves.

Gunnar has found his new favorite spot in the music room standing guard over the home. A comfy bench that puts him right at level height with the street. Y’all pray that we can go a whole week without him marking his territory so we can finally be done with these male dog wraps. 🤦🏻‍♀️🐶

at it again with her wisdom. 🙌🏼🔥🎤

As the Spirit of God challenges and convicts us toward fearlessness and unashamed commitment, we will frequently need to create distance between ourselves and "our people." Sometimes, in order to be in
wholehearted allegiance to our God, we'll have to move away from others with whom we share relationship, whether culturally or spiritually.

In this post-Christian era, "stepping forward" will require separation from
many who may possess similar beliefs as ours, but who have become apathetic, lukewarm, and watered-down in their commitment to God and His truth.

The kind of boldness that is unashamed of the pure gospel, committed to the inerrancy of God's Word, and unwavering in His standard of holiness will increasingly necessitate a rejection of political correctness and social acceptance. The most stubborn deterrent to receiving the full expression of God's presence and blessing in our lives is the pressure to
pursue conformity and acceptance over obedience.

Always remember that your Father has been preparing you for this. ✝️💞

Major conviction coming from my today. 🔥🔥🔥

“The perceived advantage of being first is always trumped by the actual advantage of having access to God‘s fire. When you know that God is for you, when you know His Spirit lives within you, and when you're convinced (as the gospel says you can be) that His favor and presence rests upon you, you are no longer consumed with insecurity about the odds that may be stacked against you. Neither the "best" nor the "biggest" nor the "first" is any comparison for having God's blessing and backing.

The real question is do you believe that God is the one true God or not?

God tells us, “Don't be afraid to have fewer. Don't be afraid to go second. Don't be afraid to look weaker by comparison. I've got your back, and you've got My favor. That's all you need on your side to secure the victory.”

That's where David, Gideon, Elijah, Joseph and so many more got their confidence. Where you and I can get our confidence too. And when we're confident- with that kind of confidence-we don't need to gather more reinforcements, or go first, or maneuver ourselves into a favorable
position for outsmarting and outperforming everybody else. Instead we can walk into any situation with authentic humility, which is one of the key elements that invites the fire of heaven.

Our flesh is so easily tickled toward pride and self-sufficiency that we instinctively lean toward wanting to be first, to be the best, to have the most.

So God, in order to curb this tendency of ours, often allows us to enter situations where the odds are tilted against us, where we're liable to experience a frightful twinge of insufficiency. But rather than avoid these moments, be like Elijah- embrace them as an opportunity to practice humility, to defer to others, and to refuse succumbing to insecurity.

Don't back down and run away from hard things. Believe instead that God can do unbelievable things in the face of them.”

10 years of with these two. 🌷💞 This year I got 5 minutes and ONE pose out of the budding pre-teen. I was too tired to argue so I snapped my one and was grateful for that! 🤣🙌🏼

To say we have been busy lately would been an understatement. My old rule of one activity at a time for my kids is lonnngggg gone and between all of theirs, homework, and all of our church and school commitments we don’t seem to have a single free moment these days. I feel like that’s how the devil likes us. Tired, stressed, with no margin to be still with God. Today we found a rare hour of margin and enjoyed the 85 degree weather, laughed and loved in that small gap of free time. We talked about what we learned in church, and how amazing God’s creation around us is. God is so good, and just affirms we all need to carve out more time for family and Him!!!

A day late and a dollar short but this here is my . 🤪🥰 This week we concluded a 6 week bible study on marriage called, “Cherish.” Y’all, I’m NOT good with emotions, feelings, and certainly don’t like talking about my relationship. This bible study took me out of my comfort zone and showed me things about our marriage I had never seen. I definitely don’t always get it right, and neither does he, but if I can offer any advice to anyone it’s to ALWAYS keep Christ at the center of your relationship. If your eyes are fixed on Him, and glorifying God through your marriage you will make way better decisions together. I’ll keep working on words of affirmation for him (seriously so hard for me), and carving out time for each other, but boy am I grateful for the Lord’s strength and not my own for it all!

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”

‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I’ve been reading the Bible in chronological order this year through , and this week this quote hit me hard: “Humility is the narrow zone where you’re not building yourself up or beating yourself up. Because you realize it’s not about you. Humility is rightly viewing who you are. As a person who is loved despite being undeserving.”

How often do we get caught in the sin trap of making things about us (uh daily 🤦🏻‍♀️). We read the Bible looking for ourselves, when the Bible is there to show us God and His character. The entire Bible points to Him, His perfect ways, His perfect love and from start to finish points to Jesus Christ as our savior. I need this reminder all day every day.

In His infinite grace He even gives us scripture to pray to Him. Even when we can’t find the words, He has them for us. Psalm 51 has been one of those verses on repeat lately. God; help me remember day in and day out, you are the only one in control and everything we do is to glorify YOUR name. 🙌🏼

Give thanks in ALL circumstances. We’ve been reciting that verse on repeat these days. Sometimes easier said than done but focusing on every blessing no matter how small we may think it is realigns our perspective. No matter how crazy this world has become, and how far from God we see society run, stay strong and with His strength and endurance be the light. 🌟To God be the glory always and forever. ✝️🙌🏼

It’s the most wonderful time of the year and I ain’t apologizing for decorating early. ❤️🙌🏼🎄✝️ I get my pretty Christ centered tree on full display and our smaller tree with sentimental and kids ornaments in the dining room and their bedrooms. The main room is for all of the feels. 🥰 For unto us a Savior is born!

The last month has been a whirlwind!! Kids activities, bible study groups, volunteering, another surgery thrown in the mix, and somehow the holidays snuck up on me FAST. There was literally a 36 hour quick trip to Oklahoma to help a dear friend and boy oh boy was I pleasantly surprised by the beauty of the Broken Bow area!!! We got our fall fix, got to wear cold weather clothes and unwind for a few minutes. I am always blown away by God’s creation, and so appreciative of His majesty! My favorite time to talk to Him is in nature and His creation, I never feel closer to Him; feeling the breeze, smelling the air, and anyone who knows me knows my obsession with water.

“…He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters…”

I am always appreciative of the quiet waters, no matter where they be. God is good ALL of the time. 🙌🏼💞🙌🏼
