Unglued!

If there was ever a reason to do an online Bible study group for an Unglued mom this is it. The trials of raising twin tween girls have me completely UNGLUED!!!

I have just completed week one of the online bible study for Lysa TerKeurst’s new book Unglued with Melissa Taylor and P31 Ministries. I am thankful for this study as I have had the opportunity to utilize some of the teachings already. This week has been full of teachable moments when we have had one unglued moment after another with crazy trials related to school.

I mean seriously, I remind as they go out the door to ask questions about corrections we had made to their journal the night before only to receive an email later that morning from the teacher telling me that the girls had left their journals at home on the coffee table. Ughhhhh!!

Fortunately, I have help in the form of the Almighty and this bible study. I am going to share a few of the gems from this book as we go along so be sure to follow. Or better yet… join us with this bible study.

Chapter 1 and 2 Gems…

“Imperfect changes are slow steps of progress wrapped in grace… Imperfect progress” pg.14

“God game me emotions so I could experience life, not destroy it.” pg. 15

“we won’t bend from the weight of our past, but we will bow tho the One who holds out hope for a better future.” pg. 17

“I can face things that are out of my control and not act out of control.” pg. 23

“as long as I believe– really believe– God is there and that He is out to do me good, I can stop freaking out trying to fix everything on my own. I can rest in the fact that God is in control.” pg. 24
