This past weekend was incredible all around. Brian and I have been working HARD with the kiddies on obedience. We have felt the spiritual attack on our family…energy levels sky rocketing with the kids, obedience coming very hard for them…we prayed, God delivered, we were equipped with new ways to get all that energy out, […]
Mountain Air to Refresh the Soul :-)
Brian and I were so excited to be able to go on a trip to Big Bear this past weekend. We weren’t entirely sure we would be able to go until the day before, so as we packed, cleaned, and hopped into the car, it hit me…THIS is our trial run for our move!!! Everything […]
Wonderful lessons in schooling my littles :-)
They say the first year can be the most challenging…ours started out wonderful…and then the grind came two months into it…and I cried out for wisdom and understanding from the Lord. I’m going to write a few tidbits here of encouragement to others who may be weary and for me to remember what the Lord has taught me: God has […]
Tinklepaugh School of Discipleship
The Lord encouraged me to come up with a mission statement and focus for our homeschooling to turn to in times of fatigue and discouragement. This is something for Him to focus our family on in schooling—something for us to aim for, to move towards…to pray to achieve over time. It is so easy to be focused on […]
The power of a praying parent
I have experienced this power several times with my kids…the power of a praying parent in prayers for healing…and prayers for their future, their hearts, and deliverance. Lately, I noticed my little boy was really having a tough time. Really, for about a month now. There are these phases where I see he just is not himself. […]
Healing Rain…
It always amazes me how many times the Lord heals us…Brian woke up last night in the middle of the night with flu symptoms…he was aching, with a fever, and felt nausious and terrible. I began to pray. Then I fell asleep…and then the Lord woke me again at 5:30am…and I knew it was to pray […]
Our priorities in Christ
I am loving the series our church is doing here on post right now–it is about our identity in Christ. The first part was about who we are in Christ. That we are saved, accepted, valued, loved, redeemed, and so much more in Jesus and because of what He has done for us. Our identity […]
My Favorite Fall Recipes :-)
One of the many reasons I love the fall is because I love fall food! The Lord provides an abundant harvest full of delicious food. And some of my favorites are squash, pumpkin, apples, turkey, cider, and so much more. Here is one of my favorite recipes for the fall that we enjoyed tonight (I […]
Giving Thanks :-)
Don’t we serve such an awesome God? The other day for us was full of events throughout the day…but at some point during the day, the Lord gave me time to clean my home. I was very thankful to have a clean home. It brought up a reminder in my head though. I could tell […]
The summer has officially gone and the Fall has arrived!
These are some pictures of our little flock enjoying the last few days of summer and rejoicing in the beginning of fall. The temperatures are slowly falling and are comfortable to enjoy now. The people are out and about enjoying the gentle breeze. The leaves aren’t really changing or falling here in the desert…but I can feel […]
