triumphs and trials: January 2014
http://farrellann.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Snapshots of my life. Thursday, January 30, 2014. As I checked my inbox and read my C. S. Lewis Daily. This morning, I was hit with major conviction. From The Weight of Glory. If I'm honest, there are times when I enjoy sitting in the slums making mud pies. But unlike the ignorant child in C. S. Lewis' example, I have no excuse. I have been to that sea and have experienced that joy. Yet I still choose to stay and play with mud. Why, when I realize my heart has wandered, do I choose to stay where I am?

triumphs and trials: a letter from lewis
http://farrellann.blogspot.com/2014/04/a-letter-from-lewis.html
Snapshots of my life. Thursday, April 17, 2014. A letter from lewis. TO MARY WILLIS SHELBURNE: On the hard task of learning to depend only on God and on nothing and no one else. I feel it almost impossible to say anything (in my comfort and security—apparent security, for real security is in Heaven and thus earth affords only imitations) which would not sound horribly false and facile. Also, you know it all better than I do. I should in your place be (I have. In similar places been. A letter from lewis.

A Mom's Perspective: New Homeschooling Year
http://a-moms-perspective.blogspot.com/2011/08/new-homeschooling-year.html
Musings from a mom about life with kids. Monday, August 8, 2011. I am going to try to blog again and blog once a week about our homeschooling experiences. We started our new homeschool year last week. Samuel is kindergarten age, but since we worked on kindergarten material last year, we are doing first grade this year. The first week was an adjustment for us. Samuel is learning more and so our day revolves around the kitchen table more than last year. Here is this year's schedule:. But after talking to a...

Snapshots of my life. Saturday, June 28, 2014. A rejection, or in Scripture’s strong language, a crucifixion of the natural self is the passport to everlasting life. Nothing that has not died will be resurrected.". The Weight of Glory. Thursday, June 19, 2014.

triumphs and trials: December 2013
http://farrellann.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Snapshots of my life. Friday, December 6, 2013. This song is tops. And has been on repeat for the past two days. The words just pierce my heart and remind me of the times God has. Called me to step out into the deep. Called me to "arise, go" despite the unknown. Challenged me beyond myself or my comfort. Called me to trust Him. And man, even in taking that one. Step forward, He has shown up in the most incredible. And has floored me with His grace. And I give Him the glory. All because He is awesome.

triumphs and trials: March 2014
http://farrellann.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Snapshots of my life. Saturday, March 1, 2014. God put this verse in my path this evening while I was perusing Instagram:. And in His grace He reminded me of this truth-. Those words and the two verses that come before them. Optional. They're commands. You) Always be joyful. You) Never stop praying. You) Be thankful in all circumstances. Simple grammar that I taught my third graders last year. Imperative sentences. This is His will for me because. I belong to Christ Jesus. I think that's the hardest part...

triumphs and trials: February 2014
http://farrellann.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Snapshots of my life. Monday, February 24, 2014. He makes it sound so easy. Monday, February 17, 2014. Came across a sweet memory in my inbox tonight. I had sent myself this email back in 2010, my second year teaching 6th grade in Korea. I'm guessing I quickly wrote it down during a break so I could transfer it to my journal later. So thankful for emails and journals to remember these moments by. And you can get shy? If we keep saying His name, does He like it? What a beautiful teaching moment. A Few Key...
