This is a new series I am starting today. I will take bits and parts of my devotionals, Bible studies, the sermon that is perched at church or on the radio. I hope and pray that you learn something and enjoy this new series.
Luke 15:10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
So do you have true joy in you life? Do you want to know how to get it? Well, I'll tell you. If you want true joy in your life, turn joy into an acronym. J.O.Y and it stands for, Jesus first, others second, yourself last. If more people followed this acronym the world world be a much happier and peaceful place.
So I have a girlfriend in California and I was chatting with her on the phone a couple months ago. I was explaining to her that I was reading the house rules for the Duggar Family and that is where I found that acronym. Then she said, "I teach my chilren that but I just can't get them to follow it." Then I told her that the reason her children will not follow that acronym is because she and her hubby need to set the example. I am just as gulity about not setting the example. Our children deffintly learn most of what they pick up from their parents.

Mother of Invention.
Sometimes as a mother you come across situations in your home that need an inventive solution. Like in our home the baby's car seat serves many purposes, it's a car seat, a baby carrier, a personal rocking chair for baby, and since she can not sit up yet it is also a feeding chair. So over the holidays my girls got so many toys that they out grew their toy box and everything started to spill over into the living room. I think that the minute I stepped on a toy because it was on the floor and I was holding the baby, everything had to change right then. At first hubby and me went to our local Wal Mart to buy a new toy box. But guess what, they don't sell them. So here is what I came up with. The baby's pack n play has now turned into the new toy area. Now everything is neat and off the floor.
I think that it works out great for our family for now. So is there anything that you have done in your home that you feel was rather inventive? I am always up for new ideas.
