Homeschooling is a uniquely rewarding experience. The opportunity to witness our children’s milestones and to participate in their triumphs and struggles is a priceless adventure and privilege. Homeschooling requires time, commitment, perseverance, and love from its practitioners – and it rewards the faithful with fulfillment, joy, irreplaceable memories, and the affirmation of a job well done.
For limited human beings, however, the daily homeschooling grind isn’t always perfect. There are days when a child fails repeatedly to understand his or her lesson. There are days when our children soar, and there are days when they will falter. There are days when a dirty house, rowdy children, tired parents, and endless responsibilities paint an image that is as far from the perfect homeschooling home as possible.
How invaluable it is to know we have a perfect God!
His strength is made perfect in weakness. In the darkness of overwhelming challenges, His light shines all the brighter. In Him alone do we find strength to fall, to struggle, to conquer, and to persevere.
