Well most people do their cleaning in the spring, but we did our big house cleaning job this month. Our 10 Grandson went through all his toys, and I can't even begin to count the number of pages of toys that went to goodwill, and the trash. He still has plenty, but they are now in toy boxes, and he is required to put the up each night or they are picked up and given to good will. I know that sounds harsh, but we are talking about grandchildren who haven't been required very often to pick toys up. Our 13 year old son went through all his books, and we separated some out for our 2 year old, and gave a box full to goodwill and a sack in the garbage, and he rearranged the ones he kept. We have two more rooms to go through to pick items for goodwill that we no longer use. I know it sounds as though we are messy people, but we have a house full of people. As of today we now have 5 adults and 2 children who live here all the time, one who is here every other weekend, and one who comes off and on whenever we want her too. We live in a 4 bedroom double-wide so we are FULL.
I know people think we are crazy, but I believe in family, and helping family. If they need something and I can help them I do. My son is moved in last night. He needs to get back up on his feet save some money to find a place to live. Yes it gets wild around here, and way to much noise, but I do it for them.
The Lord answers prayers in a multitude of ways, and I pray daily for each one of my children, and grandchildren. I recommend to parents out there who have adult children to go out and buy the book by Stormie Omartian "The Power of Praying for Adult Children". It is an amazing book. Actually she has one on husbands, wives, younger children, marriage. Who books are so good and they really teach you how to pray. The Lord has already begun to answer some of my prayer request, and I am anxiously awaiting to results of many, many more.
