GO! by Hope Farm Kids by SaintLewis

Here is the October Virtue song Initiative.

If you didn’t listen to the September Virtue Respect you can hear it here.

I hope this song is motivating to you on this Monday morning! If you take a listen – stay with it until the bridge- it is a sort of rap, it really gets you moving!

“See it, do it, don’t wait for it – get to it, do it, don’t wait for it – gotta take the initiative!”

GO AND DO THE THINGS THAT HE’S CALLED YOU TO.
DON’T WAIT TO BE TOLD. GO AND SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO!

This is a great song to sing and teach the kiddos about taking initiative in our daily life. On a practical note, my boys sing the ‘see it, do it’ part and look around for items that are out of place in the house. We are having a blast learning about taking initiative. Shannon and I are also looking for ways to incorporate an enterprising spirit into our family.

The biggest thing I have learned is that sometimes God has put things in your heart and YOU and I have to take initiative to get those things rolling.

Where do you need to take initiative today? What is he calling you to do?

DON’T WAIT FOR IT!




The leaves were a promise….

It’s no suprise that Autumn is one of my favorite seasons- I was born in the middle of October. I came into the world in the midst of Pumpkin spice and everything nice!!!

No, really I can’t get enough Pumpkin spice. My fall decorations are all out- minus the fresh pumpkins, flowers etc that I will get in a week or so. Our hot weather will melt them in no time! I had three blog- worthy possible topics today and they all three got moved up when I found these treasures.

I woke up this morning with a spring in my step, October 1- the first day of my favorite season!
My mom came over to have special art time with Tucker. She really came over to encourage and inspire him in his love for art.

During this time I went to songwriting circle, which was greatly inspiring and encouraging, I left incredibly thankful for the outlet to create.

My husband called and was exploding with inspiration from the conference he is a part of this weekend. He sounded so encouraged and strengthened.
Then I picked up Kenimer, got everyone settled. I stepped out on the porch to enjoy a phone conversation with a friend when these amazing leaves just popped right out… They were all over the backyard. We don’t normally have these types of leaf changes around here so early. They are my gift. These beautiful fall leaves! Happy October 1!
