    Establishing a Peaceful Atmosphere in Your Home

    Our homes are where the majority of us spend most of our time. It is where we raise our little ones, where our husbands come home from their work, and where we decide what type of atmosphere we will establish. Like everything else in life we can decide to establish one of two atmospheres in our homes. We can bring in confusion, stress, and strife. Or we can welcome peace, kindness, and righteousness. Which do you think is from the Lord? 1 Corinthians 14:33 says, “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” Our God does not want His people to be in confusion. He doesn’t…

    Are You Losing Yourself in Motherhood?

    From the moment you find out you’re pregnant your life completely changes. Almost every decision you make will effect your child in some way. Your life will change. Everything from the time you wake up to your daily schedules to how you eat your meals will look different. Especially in the baby and toddler season of motherhood, which is what I’m currently in, our time is rarely our own. There are unexpected moments that come up, poorly timed accidents, and plans that have to be rearranged because things happen in motherhood. And it can be so easy to lose your…

    Ways to Set Yourself up for a Spirit Led Day

    Mornings can either be good or bad. And depending on what season of life you’re in, what time you begin your day may differ. Right now in the current season I am in with two little boys it is very hard to set a routine. With different sleep schedules, unexpected moments, and the way toddlers view time a strict morning routine has not been possible. So in this post I want to speak to mamas of littles who may not have the ability to have a designated quiet time in the morning, who can’t wake up before her kids, or…

    Tips for Reading the Bible for a Toddler Mom

    Right now in this season of having two under three my quiet time looks far from quiet. Reading God’s Word doesn’t look like it did when I didn’t have kids or even when I was single. But I know how important reading the Bible is to me in this season of being a toddler mom. Without God’s Word I am not going to be able to care for my kids well, serve my family, and continue in righteousness. That’s why all moms need to be reading the Bible. So here are some tips that worked for me to still get…

    Why You Need Wisdom for the Mundane in Motherhood

    Wisdom comes up over and over again in God’s Word. If you need to know how to get wisdom just open up Proverbs. That one book alone is packed with answers. We all need wisdom from the Lord, no matter what season of life you are in. But there is something about the mundane days of motherhood that requires wisdom. As mothers we do the same tasks each day, tend to cries, clean up messes, mop spills off the floor, feed little mouths what feels like non-stop, clean up more messes, and stay up late with little ones who can’t…

    Being Kingdom Focused in a Self Focused World

    If you take a look at our world today, our culture is just very self-focused. And unfortunately most of our thoughts are driven from that self-focused and self-taught culture. It’s just because we live in that mindset and because that is the majority of what we consume. When we are consuming things of this world, we will become like the world. Consuming self-focused advice, things from Hollywood, releases from our culture, and so on will just lead to those things dictating our thoughts. But we are called to consume heavenly things and dwell on things that are pure. That is…

    The Fruits of the Spirit and Motherhood

    I love how the Father in heaven enables us as mothers, through His spirit, to love our children how He loves us.  Think about it, the Bible tells us the attributes of Yahweh: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.“ (Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭22‬-‭23‬) All of these are things that we as mothers should possess and practice towards our children, and because we have His living spirit inside of us, we are able to speak and act in such a way. Through Him living inside of…
