Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding, In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight

Proverbs 3:6

Our homeschool co-op recently planned an event….a Medieval Festival and Faire…it was quite a challenge. It was fun once we had it but @ one point it wasn’t clear if it would happen at all….

The world would not have crashed in on us if we didn’t have it but the Lord kept encouraging us…..and providing despite everything and anything. He even cares about FUN!!!

IT was…..truly a test of our faith and trust in HIM….He is so wonderful and faithful…as we trust in HIM…He does His thang’

The Great King is Coming Soon

The leader…speaker of the medieval program acknowledged HIM as the “Great King” who was away from the castle…but is COMING SOON!! 

It was soooo funny that the little kids were asking..”Are you sure the King is coming back? When is He coming back” We assured them that Jesus is the TRUE King and He will return soon….

It was a fun day….the moms served the kids who were nobility…they got a kick out of that.

God really gave us a good day…..I am soooooo grateful.

I am VEERRRY grateful our old homeschool friends came to town…....it was hard to say goodbye though…the lil girl especially has a sweet spot in my heart…I tell her mom to “Raise her for me and when she gets older she is MINE…ha ha”

The chance of him poking someone playfighting made me cringe….

I am so thankful that we couldn’t find it that morning….I think that was the Lord’s sovereign wisdom of the hour…

The co-director of the co-op was the “dreamer” AND “town crier” for the Medieval Festival and Faire….their family spent countless hours working and praying to make the event possible…Praise God for them!!! She is shown here for the hand washing ceremony.

The Funny lady…the other co-director of the co-op CRACKED a thousand jokes as the stuck up “Lady of Nobility” pretending to interact with “Mere peasants”

OH she cracked me up alllll day!!!

THANK YOU LORD!
