God Made Moms To Teach Their Children...Being Prepared Is A Part of God's Will For Us

As I reviewed the school supply list and all the other papers that come home the first week of school, I thought about all of what it takes to become a successful student and a successful school. Getting the necessary supplies and filling out the different forms prepares the students, the parents, and the administration for whatever lays ahead. All it takes is preparation. I don't think we will ever be fully prepared for all that life brings but as I pondered "preparation", I thought that those school supplies could prove to be handy in a grade of excellence on my son's first reading or writing assignment. Having my contact information would prove to be a necessity for the school nurse needing to report a accident that involves my child or if my child is sick. Friends, it is God's will for us to be prepared, not worried but prepared. For example, planning meals help make dinner and homework assignments more manageable during a busy week, having a resume on hand surely helps when a last minute job opportunity presents itself, having an emergency fund is great for unplanned or unexpected expenses, an umbrella tuck away in a purse or car is good for unexpected rain. My tidbit for today, just try to prepared for whatever may come and teach our kids to do the same.

Be blessed and encourage today, it's your choice.~Delphine
