Reality Check

August 17, 2009 Bethany LaShell

I had fully intended to write a detailed post about planning for the upcoming school year for my Heart of the Matter post today; however, what flew from the tips of my fingers was more along the lines of the importance of finding the balance between the necessity of planning and the reality of plans and dreams being changed. Don’t worry, I did include some links back to previous blog posts with practical tips.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6, NKJV).

The bottom line is this: Planning is good! BUT, be prepared to have God reroute your GPS along the homeschooling journey.

It's so fun to plan, but I know the daily homeschooling implementation may change from the plan at any given moment. As long as the kids are learning and growing, I feel like we're accomplishing the plan.
