HomeStaying Joyful While ParentingAuthor: Clark A. Thomas
Though frustrations may come; staying joyful is what must be done to keep your sanity while parenting. Joy is an attribute that comes from God and it’s a gift from God. To be honest with you; there’s only one way to be filled with joy and that’s through the person of the Holy Spirit. I know some of you who may be reading this article may not be Christians or believe like I do, but if you are reading this article then one thing we both have in common are being parents. Parenting is a job you should enjoy, and you should be filled with joy to get you through the moments that’s challenging when it comes to dealing with your children’s attitudes and behaviors along with family distractions and disappointments. I’m at peace because I’m filled with the joy of the Lord. The joy of the Lord is my strength. You can only be filled with joy when you know the Lord Jesus Christ for yourself.

Why You Should Switch?The following information came from a conference call with Kay Heizer, Director of "Healthy Choices" (a non-profit organization comprised of doctors, nurses, environmental scientists and educators committed to teaching the public about the hazards of chemicals in our Home and how we can avoid or minimize the risks): :

Since 1950, at least 70,000 new chemical compounds have been invented and dispersed into our environment. Only a fraction of these have been tested for human toxicity. We are, by default, conducting a massive clinical toxicology trial, and our children and their children are the experimental animals.

150 chemicals found in the Home are connected to allergies, birth defects, cancer and psychological disorders.
House Blessing Time The time just before Lent is a perfect time to bless or re-bless your Home as to protect you and help prepare you for the Lenten season ending with the joyous celebration of Easter. It may be a bit old fashioned but in these hectic and uncertain times it makes sense to me to protect and bless our Homes and families. Home blessing simply is a sacred physical act of dedication; a dedication of both the family members and their household to the Lord. Many Christians have written to us lately informing us that they finally created a prayer room in their Homes and now they want to know what’s next, in regards to the blessing of their Home. We always answer, to first have the Home blessed by their pastor or priest and then to develop a daily or nightly blessing prayer to be recited by all the members of the family.
