As the end of the school year approaches for my children, I am excited and also feeling a little bittersweet. This is their last year at public school, as they will be attending a private Christian co/op homeschool in the fall. Though we are all beyond excited; this will be a whole new chapter for our family. One we have been praying and looking forward to. Change can always be a little scary sometimes though; even, when it is for the better. But just like caterpillars have to change to become butterflies; we too, sometimes must have changes in our lives, to grow into the most beautiful version of ourselves, that God has designed us to be. So, as we say goodbye to our usual routine; we anxiously and excitedly wait for our new routine, our new adventure. Friend, if God is calling you toward a new adventure; for His glory, please do not let your fear of change stop you. Though their may be some nostalgia about your old ways, enjoy it for what it was and fly your way, like a butterfly towards your calling! May we always welcome the new chapters and new beginnings that God places in our hearts and in our lives. For how beautiful life is, when we let God transform it!

Isaiah 48:17 NIV

This is what the LORD says-your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.
