We’re loving all the awesome goodies we got in the mail this week from @lifestylehomeschooling. Thanks, friend! I’m pretty sure this is the first IG giveaway I’ve ever won.

The Tokyo Olympics may just be getting started, bu

The Tokyo Olympics may just be getting started, but our summer break is quickly drawing to a close. And I want to use what’s left to store up lots of sweet memories in the hearts of my kids.
“Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses,” Hebrews 12:1 urges, “let us lay aside every weight & the sin which so easily ensnares us & let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.” As a mother of 12, the race set before me hasn’t varied significantly for the past three decades. I’ve been charged with training my children in the way they should go and pointing them to Jesus at every opportunity. And the “great cloud of witnesses” that surrounds me? It definitely includes my spouse and children, plus (more recently) grandchildren and in-laws. They know me better than anybody else on earth. And they see how I invest my time — which sends a crystal clear message about what’s really most important to me. I find that thought very convicting. So I pray with Moses, “LORD, teach me to number my days, that I may gain a heart of wisdom.” (Psalm 90:12) None of us knows for certain how many days we have left on this earth. But we can guestimate. And if my future follows roughly the same pattern as my past, that only leaves me a handful of summers with any kids still at home. Most of them are grown and gone already. I want to be intentional about how I spend the time I have left and invest it wisely. I don’t want to look back in 5 or 6 years & realize I squandered any of it. That’s one reason I’m so grateful for the treasure trove of fun memories our family made at the Family Olympics our dear friends at @m.is.for.mama hosted over the weekend. Youngest to oldest, we all had a blast. If you’re interested in hosting your own Family Olympics (whether that means inviting the whole neighborhood for a full day of fun or just challenging your immediate family members to a couple of contests in your own backyard), click on the link in my bio to download a free printable copy of our game plan. It includes everything you’ll need to get started! #familyolympics #goforthegold #redeemthetime #familyfun

Our Rachel now works as a server at First Watch, which is where we had breakfast after church last Sunday. Perk of attending the 8:00 service: We usually beat the after church crowds to the restaurant and get seated immediately — even when we don’t have a kid on the waitstaff. 😊 #goodfood #greatservice #wehaveconnections #flandersfamilyeats

The Bible uses a lot of sports analogies in talking about the Christian life. As the Olympics begin tomorrow, we will see first hand what this kind of discipline entails: ✅ “Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as you might win.” - 1 Corinthians 9:24 ✅ “Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.” – 1 Corinthians 9:25 ✅ “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us…” – Hebrews 12:1
