my hearts at home!!!

I am doing this bible study on thursday mornings with all my lady friends..
it really has opened my eyes to a lot
the book is titled
MY Hearts At HOME
by Jill Savage

great book to read. we are doing a section a week so far I have read

Part 1 the foundation

Home as a safe house - HOme is central to understanding who we are and who we belong to. and also what we stand for. TO know that everyone in the house is to feel safe loved honored cherished and blessed in the house is a very important thing to know. she goes on into saying that even though the foundation isnt normally seen it is the most important part of the house. Am I building a strong foundation for my family. amd I honoring my husband and children? AM I some one they can run to when they are hurt or crying or need to be hugged and loved on? What can I do to better my self to be the best in all I do for my family? Do I respect my children and my husband? Do I practice Grace and forgiveness. Do I stop look and listen? I want to make my house a safe place. isn't the world dangerous enough. I have learned that I need to play with them all together and individually. I need to connect with them I need to sted clear standards. I need to model a healthy life for them to look up to!I also need to let them know that even grown ups fail at things and it is okay to fail as long as you pick your self up. It is only the natural part of life isn't it?!
