About two years ago I grabbed a bottle of an essential oil and anointed our home for the first time. We had just moved into our apartment and a lot of bad circumstances started happening. We had a flea infestation from the previous tenants, our son started having night terrors every hour, and I found tarot card printables and a list for healing crystals from the people who lived in the apartment before us. I didn’t know what to do. We thought we had made a terrible mistake by moving. Then I remembered seeing someone on Instagram talk about anointing…

I love being a homemaker. There is so much fulfillment in caring for your home and family. But I’m not going to say it’s an easy job either. There is a lot of work that goes into caring for your home. One thing I love about having a home is that I get to make it a piece of heaven. I want anyone who comes into my house to feel like this is the closest to heaven that they will get on earth, so to speak. I try to set a peaceful environment, keep God in the center, and welcome…

We are told to pray without ceasing. But for many, they don’t really know what that means. As God’s children we are supposed to have a relationship with Him. That means we need to talk to Him like He is our best friend, ask His advice like a father, speak to Him like He is our Bridegroom, and come to Him when we are lost and afraid. Praying may seem daunting or even difficult when we don’t know how to have a true relationship with the Lord. It takes practice, like any good relationship. So don’t give up. If you…

It’s the beginning of a new year and so many of us are setting goals and resolutions. We begin pouring so much of our time into healthy habits, exercising, money goals, and self-help improvement. Which all of those are great. Don’t get me wrong! But if you are reading this and you’re a mother I want to encourage you to set some goals that will help you in your motherhood journey this year. Motherhood is a job that is so incredibly important to God. He has given us, as mothers, a huge responsibility to shepherd our childrens’ hearts and continually…

If you’re a mother of little ones you may know that it’s really hard to find peace during the week. There’s always another diaper to change, mess to clean, and mouth to feed. And those needs don’t stop on Shabbat. So how are you supposed to find rest and peace on your Sabbath? Right now I am in the thick of early motherhood. I have two boys who are two and under. And if I’m being honest, rest is rarely found these days. But I still want to honor the Lord and His Sabbath even in this season. And I…

Life gets tiring. Doing the same thing every single day can seem useless. I get it. Recently I fell into the mindset of feeling trapped. Cleaning the same messes, changing the same diapers, having the same responsibilities each and every day seemed like it would never end. And it won’t for a while. This is the season I am in right now. And there is a reason for that. But what does cleaning the same messes have to do with living for the Kingdom? It has everything to do with it! Through the mundane days and seemingly useless responsibilities I…

The season of motherhood is a full one. I’m only two years in but I’m already learning that there are many ups and downs. Just one hour could be filled with so many tears and so many giggles. It is definitely a tiring season. And there are many days that I just want to do the bare minimum. And to be honest, for a long time, the thought of incorporating reading my Bible into my daily schedule kind of scared me. I was already so busy with housework, my work, and keeping little humans alive. The thought of having a…
