Choosing a Verse for Your Homeschool Year
this post may contain affiliate links.
For as many years as I can remember, we have been choosing a verse for our family each homeschool year. I usually pray about it for awhile and see where the Lord leads.
It has been amazing to do this because we have seen each year how the verses truly fit our family and where He led us that year!
This year every time I prayed about it, I kept hearing this one in my mind:
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. 3 John 4 (ESV)
And that was that. I went no further. I declared it our verse for the year.
The truth is, as we get further on this journey, and nearing the end for my oldest (only two years left!) this has become more and more my prayer.
How about you? do you claim a verse for your homeschool year?

Hi Karen, yes, a great post. To be honest, I had not thought about asking the Lord to give our family a single verse to focus on for the year, but I have chosen one for each child on their birthday. We would make up a mini-poster with a special image of some sort (usually a local landmark that fitted the verse), include the verse, the child’s name and the date. This would become the child’s own key verse, given by the Lord, to focus on for their next year of life. It does seem to minister to them, for where they are on their individual journey!
Blessings,
Sue
I love that idea! Beautiful!
