Clean Slate


We made these "clean slates" at MOPS this morning...they had all these fun crafty things to stick or glue on to customize your clipboard/slate...I am so grateful that we don't just start over with a clean slate each new year, but every morning, and every minute! This parenting thing is such a blessing and so humbling. Once you think you have figured something out there is something new to pray for and ask God to help you with and give guidance. A verse I have really been thinking on a lot lately came up this morning:

"If any of you lacks wisdom,
he should ask God,
who gives generously to all without finding fault,
and it will be given to him."
~James 1:5


I'm praying that a lot for myself as we go through our days! :) In our small groups we wrote on our boards with chalk about unresolved things from 2009 that we wanted to hand over to God this new year and then we wiped them clean...So refreshing that "His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is [His] faithfulness." ~Lam. 3:22-23

Hoping to use our slate to write a memory verse for the family to work on each week! :)
