No Worries Mate!

Hi There!

There is a common expression where I live (”down under”) -It is No Worries!.

Some people use it all the time - its sort of means, ‘don’t be concerned, I’ve got it covered’ or ‘it’s not worth being concerned about - no problem or no drama’.

You know what? - we can say “No Worries” to anybody who seems concerned about your homeschool program or lifestyle!, if we are leaning on God’s wisdom and guidance.

He is extremely interested in everything that goes on in our homes, from training the kids in how to wash and wipe the dishes to treating each other with kindness (instead of having a punch up! yes - I have boys).
In fact God actually has the perfect promise for homeschooling parents, He is so interested in our children that He promises to teach them everything they need to know!

Here it is -

Isaiah 54v13
“All your sons will be taught by the Lord…”
Wow! - that certainly takes the heat out of things, I can really say “No Worries!” God has got it covered. I just need to listen to his promptings and go with the flow.

But it gets better -God adds an extra cherry on the top of this promise -

“…and great will be your children’s peace”

God certianly thinks of everything - He will not only teach my boys (through me and circumstances) but also pour peace into their minds and hearts. If my home has an underlying atmosphere of peace not discord then their hearts will be teachable and life will definitely be NO WORRIES!
