We ourselves create the atmosphere in our homes that we live..we keep them in the realm of what were wanting for them to be..and we will refuse to give up that peace that resides there..so we do that by daily striving and praying for our homes..for our families and for our lives..and when things begin to get a little crazy or out of touch in our homes…we get busy to bring back order..for order is where it’s at when it comes to the home..I have said it many times before but the home is our safe haven from all of that outside world that we have to deal with and daily deal with..but our homes have to be a place of rest and peace..a place where our families and friends can come and get rejuvenated…because I’ve heard before but you can always tell a lot about a person when you enter there homes..and I’ve found that statement to be so very true…the homes represent us and who we are..they are the most wonderful place to come too…just to be safe and feel safe from all of the weights of the world…the home is a place where we can laugh..love..and rest..and we can enjoy our families..and cook..and read..sleep…light a candle..bake a cake..so much happens in our homes..but I don’t know about the rest of ya..but I do desire for peace and love to always be in our home..and I strife as a wife and a mommy to make that happen for my husband and our son..for when we love we as well take care…and we take care of them ones that the Lord has entrusted into our lives..so we help one another along the way..we pray for each other..we talk about life..and we are always honest and upfront with each other..no secrets and no lies…for you can’t build a life on them things..but honesty and integrity are the key principles when building your home..you have to trust one another…you have to respect one another..and you have to be there always for one another..for so goes the home they say…so goes the church..for we as christians represent the church…Amen..for the church lives inside of us!..Hallelujah..for you see guys God is not the author of confusion..1 Corinthians 14:33..Oh, but that ole devil is..and he wants our homes..and he wants to steal away from us and our lives and he does that any way it is that he can…for you see when others look at our lives when we consider and claim to be a christian they always pay attention to the home..and they watch it carefully considering the way we live in that home of ours…so we guard our homes guys..and we guard them carefully…for the word of God says that if the goodman of the house would had known what hour the thief was going to break through and steal he would have stayed awake and not suffered his home to be broken up..Matthew 24:43…so we as the guardians over our homes have to guard them..we guard our families constantly..we guard our lives constantly..and we stay on guard as I said constantly…we don’t let things by or happen when it comes to our lives and our homes..but we pray..and we keep it covered and covered at all times…for the devil doesn’t take a way from you all at once it’s just little by little with every compromise..he begins to maybe take away the respect that you have with one another..maybe the way you talk to one another..to the way you keep your home..to the way you care for your home..to the way you spend quality time with your family..and on and on he begins to do little things until a whole lot of them little things are now big things..so whatever you do and whatever I do…my prayer is that we guard our lives..protect our families..cover them always and continually..for they mean so much..and they are what makes our worlds and our lives such a beautiful thing…for there gifts from the Lord..but we have to do our parts…just like with anything..we have to put forth the effort..and make happen what were so desiring to happen in our lives and in our homes..and in our relationships..for faith without works is dead guys..James 2:14-26..but we must put feet to our plans and our thoughts on how to make our lives, homes and worlds a more beautiful and loving place to be and to dwell in..so let us get busy working on them homes of ours both spiritually and physically..In Jesus’ name..I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen…Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
