Last week I had the opportunity to sit among women Last week I had the opportunity to sit among women who said they want to learn more about God and His word.
Because I volunteered to lead a study and because I never want to go light in leading a provided study, here I sit.

Seven reference books stacked on the floor, a few lectures listened to, and now I get to write a list of questions. I’m good at asking questions that stretch the mind. I do it all day to myself.

So for lunch, I grabbed a BLT from my fav spot and worshiped. Because other than wife, mom, and homemaker....this is the coolest thing God’s ever had me do. And because it’s the coolest, I refuse to do it mediocre.

Theology matters - because God matters.
For our good & His glory. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For our good & His glory.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s hard to say that what the world deems as bad, God can say it’s good.
I say this from the stance that I think loss is bad. Grief is hard. Miscarriage shouldn’t be good.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today is a hard day. Not a bad day. Hard because it’s the due date of the child we lost. Five years of empty should-be-birthdays.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But God.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instead of sitting in the what-ifs, I’ll bask in His glory. Maybe this can help me understand a fraction of God’s grief over the cross. I can’t fathom that at all.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hope. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My hope isn’t in this world, nor answering why, nor is my hope in the children that I have.
My hope is in an eternity with God. Where I’ll one day meet my child and spend an eternity of days with them at the feet of Jesus. Because of God’s mercies, I can say that hope in an eternity like that beats out all the what-ifs and should-bes here.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My children are His first. Each day with them is merely an extension of His grace and we live at the mercy and pleasure of a mighty God.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do I want to say that my loss and grief is good? No I don’t want to but I trust God that it is. It’s good that because of trials, I’ve been sanctified more. It’s good that because of grief I’ve had to learn to depend more on Him than myself or my husband. It’s good because when I surrender and believe that it’s all His, I’m obedient and He gets the glory.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s good.....because God said so.
It’s good.....because He is sovereign. 
It’s good.....because God is good.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is good. It is good. It is good.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For me, it helps with searching for scriptures. I For me, it helps with searching for scriptures. I might not know the exact location of a book but this has helped with my overall knowledge and understanding of the Bible. I now can ask myself, what category does this book fall into, and then search that way. I love bible tabs but this makes it more based on my knowledge and understanding.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The world may seem like it's on fire. ⠀⠀⠀⠀ The world may seem like it's on fire. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some places might actually be. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But you know what's most important to focus on? God. Spouse. Family. Church. Community.

Watching the news is overwhelming. No one seems to know what's up and what's sideways. Where are the adults?!?!?!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Oh wait. At some point in the last couple of decades, I became an adult. And I'm at home raising boys to be adults in the next couple of decades.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That is purposeful work. That is how we further the kingdom. That's how we help others know God.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do the work right in front of you!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's less stressful than watching the other adults burn the place to the ground. Plus we know that one day...this whole place is going to be up in flames (read Revelation).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Surely we want to do our best to make the world a little better, but it's not all on us. God is sovereign. And what I'm going to focus on are what God has asked me to steward in the time I have. Because that's important to Him.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's important to God should be what is important to us.
I often get asked how I have so much time to read. I often get asked how I have so much time to read. No matter if it's a nonfiction book or my bible, I have time to read because I make the time to read. I love to read. I love to learn. I love theology because I love God.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you want to read your bible more this year....⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Make the time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Remove distractions. Turn your phone on do not disturb, turn off the tv, let your kids play outside while you read, read aloud to your family.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Accountability makes you stick with it. A discussion group helps because you don't want to be the only one not knowing what is going on!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can do it. There's no race. But I promise the more you do it, the more you will want to do it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
