"There is a time for everything." -Ecclesiastes 3:11
As a homeschooling parent our lives can seem stuck in forever. We may think our children will never move beyond a certain point in their education or that we will never do anything different. Each day can feel like a repeat of the last with homeschooling, laundry, cooking and church responsibilities. Is there ever an end to the seemingly endless repetition?
As the author loaded her kids in the car, God spoke to her heart. Looking in the side mirrors for traffic, she noticed the words "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear!" God showed her that the end to this period in her life was closer than it appeared.

As time went on she discovered that life is a series of transitions - chapters are opened, read and then
closed for the next to begin. What chapter of your life are you in as a homeschooling parent - babies, toddlers, teenagers, empty nest? Things will not always remain the same. Enjoy the moment you are in now to the fullest. God is with you and knows exactly what you should be doing. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens" (Ecclesiastes 3:1).
