  1. I’ve been trying to redo my routine as well! I never thought to pray over it though… in all things through prayer… how could I forget this?! Thanks for the lovely reminder. I’m looking forward to your upcoming shares!

    Wishing you a lovely day.

  2. I’ll keep an eye out for all the upcoming info! I am a terrible housekeeper. My routine is to do a daily sweep to make sure there are no dirty dishes in the living room. I would love to get into a rhythm that helps maintain order!

    1. The other day I was cleaning behind our couch and I found my kid’s missing cereal bowls! I too need to get into a better routine of sweeping through the house because apparently dishes have been collecting in the living room 🙂

  3. Ugh. Routines. Mine is insanely messed up…between having serious insomnia that leads me to end up sleeping during the day instead of at night, and losing my job…I’m a hot mess!!! 🙂 Looking forward to seeing what you’ve come up with!

    1. I’m so sorry Brooke but don’t be too hard on yourself, I definitely believe that there are seasons when it is OK to let go of the routine and just do what works for you. Hopefully you can get back into a better sleep pattern soon and I hope that my routine will encourage you. 🙂

  4. This is quite timely…..routines are necessary….and they can become obsolete and it is good to review them. Thank you for posting this………..I just signed up to follow you on Google Friends Connect.

  5. I have a hard time with a routine. Between business that’s based on my clients needs and homeschooling and a 2 year old, I just can’t seem to get it together so I am absolutely looking forward to reading how you revamp. I could use some help in this area.

  6. My routine has been lost since December. I have been able to keep my head above the mess so I don’t drown. But I sometimes feel like hiding somewhere that I can’t be found,but we know that this just can’t happen. I have five children ages twelve to twenty. We found out that we had ten days to leave our home a week before Christmas. I found a home that was so much smaller than what I was living in and move in it on December 20. Threw two birthdays for my children. One was a sweet sixteen party and also had Christmas. With Gods grace I pulled it all off but I was dragging emotionally and physically. In January found out my daughter was pregnant . Now I was running around helping her get everything set up. I also was running my father to doctors appointments because is salt and sugar levels were all screwed up. Now remember I told you I had to move from where I was,we’ll. I had my father set up on my land in a trailer in my back yard. He too had to be removed off the property. So on top of trying to get three thousand dollars up to move him we have to find some where to move him. The man that I am renting from helped us put him on the same land as me . He is renting the lot to my dad. So he is still next to me. My daughter and her husband live with him so they can help keep an eye on him. My daughters husband listed his job so we been looking for one while doing all this. He started his new job Monday of this week. We’ll we have his trailer moved. But they are all having to stay with me until everything is put together. It has been six days with nine people in a small home. I am almost going crazy. When you are use to doing things in order and nothing is in order OMG! So routine- what’s that I forgot ? Lol. So reading about it and keeping it refreshed in my head keeps me going. Other things have been adding to my train as the days go by too. My husbands mother had a stroke. And his sister had a car wreck. So when you are a person who had life all together , homeschool and the home,and all that stuff this mess seems like hell. But God has kept me in perfect peace when my mind is set on him. Thanks for letting me share it feels good just to let it all out.

    1. Debra,

      First thanks so much for sharing and being vulnerable. You are definitely in a crazy season! But take heart, there is grace and you will find a routine that works for you. Even if it’s just setting a small goal of prioritizing one or two tasks. And you are so right… God will keep us in perfect peace when we are focused on Him. Blessings to you, dear sister is Christ.
