Faithful Reminder....He is!

She set a goal to TRY for Memory Master. I begged her not to because it is HARD work and I thought - this is our first year of homeschooling - let's take it easy :O) (good mom)! But she said, "mom it would be silly not to try. If I make it great, if not, great...at least I have a goal."

Today, Spencer PASSED her memory test today! There are 2 rounds of review before you can even qualify to try the Memory Master test. She had to know 100% on all her memory work for the year! She is the youngest memory master in Classical Conversations! Ty asked, "did you feel God's presence?" Spencer responded, "yes, of course, the Holy Spirit was my Reminder!"

Clearly, God has given this girl a special gift of memory!

What? Who is this child? When I think about the broken road that lead me to the place where I am today with my family - with my kids and mostly walking with Jesus, I am just in AWE of God and His amazing goodness and intimate love for me! He truly restores us as if we were never away from Him! Thank you Jesus. Our family has experienced Him and His faithfulness through this!

Her next goal - to try and memorize the new testament. She said, "mom, I think God gave me this gift to memorize His word." Thank you Jesus!

We just wanted to share Spencer's exciting day and the faithfulness of our sweet Father!

Love,
Sheri

What a great testimony to the Holy Spirit! And, what an awesome gift to be given (I sometimes have to stop and think why I have just walked into a room!)

I can AMEN to the "broken road" and the AWE of our AWESOME God!

Thanks, so much, Shari for stopping by today and for the encouraging comments.

Many blessings, Sister.
