Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
The other day it was raining and hubby rearranged his schedule to do some much needed automotive work. He is not a mechanic, but with the help of Jesus he can be for the day. Jacob is now getting big enough for us to recognize some of the giftings the Lord has given him and one of them is that he is very engineering. He can take things apart and put them back together and find better ways of doing it all in the process. It is not just a fun thing it is a real God gift, you can almost see the wheels spinning in his head when he gets that “thinking” look on his face. So hubby grabbed him and said he was going to help him. Jacob didn’t think it sounded like much fun but I explained to him that daddy had wisdom Jacob needed to learn, and Jacob had a gift from God that his daddy needed. They were changing the water pump in the 12 passenger van. In an old pickup it would have been a piece of cake but in a big van you have to take quite a few parts off to get to it, not to mention one of those big crazy belts that makes everything work. But you know what? With the instruction of Jacob’s father, and the teaching of Jacob’s mother and the gifting that God put in Jacob and a whole lot of inspiration from Jesus the job got done. Amazing things happen when we all work together in God’s order. They also fixed an electrical problem that had been giving us a fit and did some work on one of the pick-ups too. Very productive homeschooling rainy day.
be blessed on this incredibly beautiful day!
