About a year ago, I created a Facebook group with the mission of supporting women in their spiritual journeys. With the introduction of our new ebook and a nudging of the Holy Spirit, I have decided to shake things up with a new name, a new description, and a new purpose. Keep reading to see how you can be part of our group too! Mommyhood is ...
Mommyhood
God Has Given Me More Than I Can Handle
Pin It A very popular quote that you will hear Christians say during a times of grief and challenge is "God won't give you more than you can handle." Honestly, I used to believe this. It made me feel safe knowing that I could handle anything God threw my way. I based this thought on promises from Romans 8:28 and I Corinthians ...
I Was Mad!
This is a repost from earlier this year but I needed the reminder so I wanted to share this again. I was mad. The fact that I was mad and not calm, made me even more mad. If I explained to you what Little Man has done over the past few days you wouldn't believe me. Then once you realized I was serious, you would probably sit down ...
Guest Post: Being Like Jesus When Your Day Falls Apart
Pin It Guest post from Tauna: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, self-control; against such things there is no law." ~ Galatians 5:22-23 A few months ago I was having a particularly hard mommy day. OK, week. Maybe month. I emailed a good friend of mine asking for prayer. She's ...
I Don’t Have to Stress Because….
Pin It Friends, I have been under spiritual attack. Attack towards me as a wife, as a mother, and as the fingers behind ABCJLM. It has been mounting for a few weeks but it finally hit the top on Friday. Other than days in which I have been overcome with extreme grief, Friday was the worse non-grief day I have ever had. My attitude was ...
You Are Being Watched!!
Pin It God is showing my husband and I - in so many ways - the importance of how we act while our children are around. Because, we all know that values are caught and not as much taught. While reading during my quiet time, I found these verses in I Timothy 4: 11 Teach these things and insist that everyone learn them. 12 Don’t let ...
We Need Girlfriends!
Pin It I have blogged several times about the importance of having godly women in your life. God made us relational for a reason. To be able to grow and stay strong as a mom, we need the support and love a close friend can give. I found this poem several years ago and wanted to share. A friend is one who STRENGTHENS you with ...
But My Children are Young, I Can’t Do What You Are Asking!
What I am about to tell you may ruffle your feathers. But hang with me on this one and see how you feel after reading the entire post. In the last few days, I have asked you to specifically set time daily aside for God and your husband. Those minutes that you guard because the person you are spending the time with is of great ...
Encouraging Verses for Women
On Wednesday, I shared encouragement from the Scriptures. In return, you shared your go-to verses with me. I wanted to compile some of the verses that you gave me (thank you!) so that we can all easily find, memorize, or share these verses with other women in our lives. You may even want to pin (button above) or share (buttons ...
Trust and Lean
Mommyhood is rough! Today, read and be encouraged. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6 Friends, we don't have to know it all. We don't have to understand everything. If we trust and lean, the Lord ...
