In this unique season of sheltering in, we have the opportunity to be intentional about our self-care, our relationships, and even taking care of the home we live in.
Sometimes we need a little vision, though. A plan. Some ideas that get us heading in the right direction.
Here are your day 65 opportunities:
Today is May 18 so we’re going to read Proverbs 18 for our daily dose of wisdom!
?You:
Unplug from phone and screens for a set amount of time today. You decide what will make a difference and work for you. Just step away from the technology intentionally in some way.
?Marriage:
In marriage, if you’re not rowing you’re drifting. How are you intentionally rowing? Growing? Connecting? If you haven’t already, come row with us at next week’s No More Perfect Marriages: Home Edition Seminar. (This is probably the last one we’ll do for a while!)
???Kids:
Everyone outside for 15 minutes minimum each day.
Babies: Show them pictures of animals in a book or online and introduce them to the different sounds that each animal makes.
Kids: Tape off your driveway or sidewalk to make a “stained glass” grid. Then let them go to town with sidewalk chalk!
Teens: Make sure they’re connecting with soul-building opportunities. If your church’s youth group isn’t available online, encourage them to tune into my son-in-law’s online youth group: Eastview Students LIVE. You can catch them LIVE on Sunday nights at 7pm CST or recorded on YouTube here: www.eastview.church/studentyoutube
?♀️Exercise:
Do some wall pushups–three sets of 10.
?Contact:
Reach out to a co-worker or former co-worker today (if you are a stay-at-home mom, other stay-at-home moms are your co-workers!).
?House/Homemaking
Sweep your porch or deck today.
?Clothes:
1 load of laundry: Wash + Dry + Fold/Hang + Put Away = DONE!
You’ve got a unique opportunity today! Use it well!
