Why In His Perfect Timing?

I discovered that someone else purchased the domain for my old blog name so after chatting with a good friend of mine and tossing back and forth different name ideas and changing things up I finally decided on In His Perfect Timing.


Why? I wanted something that spoke what my life means to me. The Heart of a Homemaker was really what I believed my blog was about. What I was writing came right from my heart to your screen. So now what. How else can I explain my life in just a few simple words?

I started thinking about what my life has been like so far. Everything working out in it's own time no matter how things look in the moment. It's not my timing that's working out. If it were it wouldn't have taken 2 1/2 years to conceive Monkey. Hubby wouldn't still be an unbeliever. Monkey would have never needed surgery at 3 years old. Hubby wouldn't have ended up being sick and in the hospital for over a month, especially at the time that it happened. There are so many things that I want to happen or wanted to happen that just didn't work out in my timing. It worked in HIS timing. And HE has made everything work out perfectly.

Yes there are still some changes I wouldn't mind discussing with Him and I do. My prayers on my lonely, homesick days are filled with "Why this right now?" but I trust His timing in everything.

Honestly, since our move to Oklahoma and all the decisions we have been making feel like we are finally walking down the path He has chosen for us. This door has been open for at least 6 years. We have already lived in Oklahoma once before and we were going to stay but then the situation changed and we ran back to where we felt at home.

But we are here! This is our new home and I'm really starting to fall in love with living here. I miss my family and friends but the more I get out, do things and meet people the more I find that this is home. This is where we are meant to be and this is the life we are meant to live. I can't wait to see what else He has planned and what is in His Perfect Timing.

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Changing My Lifestyle!

Well not only walking but just in general changing my lifestyle. I am currently overweight according to the doctors and the horrible BMI chart by 60 pounds. I seriously don't think that I will ever loose that much weight ever again. If I do great but not my goal because I want something attainable.  I have tried some many different things to lose weight and it just never works. Before I was pregnant I was right where I am now. My body has changed since I was pregnant but the weight is still the same. The good news I didn't gain anything after the pregnancy but the bad news is I still need to do something. So I'm going through the Made to Crave book and I love it. I have decided to change many different things about my lifestyle. I want to be able to have the energy to keep up with Rex and enjoy my life and right now it just doesn't seem to be everything it should be.  So here is what I have started doing...I eat only things God created. Fruits, veggies, healthy...

Frumpy or Fabulous?

Staying at home can create a sense of comfort. Allowing to stay in PJ's all day, enjoying just lounging of the couch and eating bon bon's. However for most of us homemakers we do not have this luxury of lounging and bon bon's. We have things to do with our children, house cleaning to do, and many thing outside of the house. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning just seems pointless. Excuses like I have to clean so why would I put on my 'nice' clothes or the baby is just going to spit up on me so I should just stay in my pj's since I will have to change later anyway. These are valid reasons on some  days to stay in our pj's but most  days we should get up and get ready just like if we worked outside of the home. It shows our husbands that we care about him and we try to make sure that we look good for him. It also shows are children good habits of getting up and getting dressed and ready for the day. If you read in Proverbs 31 you will see what a wif...
