Welcome to My New Readers-What an Exciting Few days!

The LORD has done great things for us,

and we are filled with joy.

Psalm 126:3

This verse has been running through my mind all morning.

This has been a wild few days! First, I want to welcome all my new subscribers and friends! I am so glad you are here and know that the Lord has caused our paths to cross for a reason.

A few days back I released my short eBook “Unplug Your Mind and ReCharge Your Soul.”

I offered it up free to all facebook followers. Well, in no time I had a great response. My dear sweet friend, Jamerrill over at Holy Spirit-Led Homeschoolingwww.holyspiritledhomeschooling.net mentioned it, and a great response came over. {please go check out her site if you are a homeschooler-she rocks!)

Well, that day I decided to start offering “Simply Homeschool” free as well.

You see, that book is my baby. It is my heart in words.
Well Money Saving Mom posted it and before I knew I was flooded with people on facebook and email.

I am thrilled that these books are now in the hands of almost 2,000 people.

If you are new here, WELCOME. Let me share some of my heart.

I started this blog a few years back as a journal. {didn’t we all…} Through so many different turns I ended up writing for other publications, and really getting out there. Before long I had followers, and this blog grew.

Simply Living..for Him was born when my desire to simplify my life {all areas-homeschool, home, mentally, etc.} was really growing.

Over the past two years I have shared with my readers this journey of living more simply in order to focus on God.

I am passionate about encouraging other homeschoolers on the way. As the number of homeschoolers continues to rise at an exceptional rate, I am thrilled to be a part of it. I heard from so many moms yesterday who are just starting out, and it made my heart sing to be able to encourage them.

And can I just tell you...I published this post about letting God’s plans for this blog unfold just days before all this happened… {click the link!} My Simple Little Blog

Can you believe it?
He is so good.
This was all His doing.
I don’t take the responsibility lightly of using my words.
They will always be used for His glory!

Please know this is my passion. To encourage. Whatever else happens, that is the Lord’s plan…all I know is yesterday I gained about 1,500 more readers and I couldn’t be more humbled.

I hope to encourage each other, provide you with resources and lift your spirits.

I’m just a messy little girl, that God chose to make clean by His grace.

I can’t wait to get to know you all more.

Please take a look around the site, and get to know me.

I am also an author and speaker and love sharing my journey with others- and I am all about keeping it real and authentic! Join me as I seek less of this world and more of Jesus!
