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…

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…

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.

So is it biblical to anoint your home? Let’s dive into this question by starting with a different question. What is anointing? Whenever we see someone anointing something or someone…

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…

You’re postpartum and in the thick of learning how to be a mom. You may be knee high in dirty diapers, laundry, to-do, you name it. There is a baby that always needs your attention. Or if this isn’t your first child, maybe a toddler or two also constantly at your feet. Being a mother is so beautiful, so fulfilling, and so God-honoring. And those early years are some of the most precious. You are shaping your little one’s childhood and teaching them to live faithfully in this world. The early stages of motherhood are beautiful but are also hard.…

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…
